Je donne cours en français - Description disponible en Français
Do lezione in Italiano - Descrizione disponibile in Italiano

.........................................................................................................................................................

The course method, inspired by the Agostini school (French method used in French and Belgian academies and conservatories) is divided between technique and drums. At the rate of one session each we will focus once on technique and movements outside the drums (on pads) and the other time on the drums and the application of technique and movements.

-> The technique lessons and the movements will be those of the so-called 'Moeller technique' that I learned through his direct lineage of student.
-> The drum lessons are greatly inspired by the pedagogy of the M.A.I. (Music Academy International - Nancy (fr)) and in particular that of Richard-Paul Morellini, renowned instructor.

The courses are complete, in-depth but above all specifically thought of to be progressive. They are suitable for children from 7 years old as well as adults of all ages.

=> Particular attention is paid to the movements and their correct application, to the total independence of the limbs and finally to an understanding of the rhythm and its theory. My main goal is to give the student complete control behind the drums and skills to be able to self-learn any piece in any musical style. 1 hour of weekly lessons are never enough, they should only be used to fuel the passion that will make you play at home more and more.

On demand or for advancs students:
- I am very passionate about the study of South American rhythms. Due to their complexity, apart from the samba and Baïon ostinatos, they are not included in the program before the advanced level. They can be at the request of the student.
- I am also specialized in metal (musical style) and double pedal. The latter is not included in the program unless requested by the student. The double pedal courses are based on the methodology of Virgil Donati.

Technique:
* Moeller technique (the 'whipping motion' - the Free stroke -Full/Half/Low stroke - accepting the rebound - its application etc.)
* Snare rudiments and their applications through reading systems
* Readings of scores and exercises for the snare drum
* Speed drills
* Military marches
* Control of the different subdivisions (quarter notes - eighth notes - triplets - sixteenth notes - quintuplets - sextuplets - triple eighth notes - nonolets etc.)
* Displacement of accents and polyrhythms
* On request, double pedal technique (application of the Moeller to the double pedal as well as everything listed above but with the feet)

Drums:
* Bass drum reading and independance
* Snare drum reading and independance
* Applications of ghost notes
* The 16 sixteenth-notes ostinatos
* Jazz readings and independence
* Binary and ternary readings
* Coordination and movements of both feet
* Dynamics on the instrument
* Creation of fills and original drum grooves
* On request, application of the double pedal
* On request or for advanced students, readings and independence of South American rhythms (study and independence of the clave/Cascara/Mozambique etc.)

As an artist I was on stage with different projects all over Europe. Seven years of training took me to the Netherlands (Ba Jazz Saxophone), Denmark and Norway (M. Composition and Performance) and recently I obtained a Masters in 'Pop Music' from the University of West London.

As a teacher, I work part-time for WISPER, an organization with a strong methodology and its own vision on art education, which focuses on 'active learning'. I bring this vision and methodology to your private lessons: I actively help you with your instrument or musical creation process.

Together we draw up a trajectory in which you hold the reins of your own development as a loving musician or artist.

My course is based first on you.
I like developing with you a program adapted to your features, your difficulties as well as your goal.
It is aimed at everyone, children and adults, complete beginners and more experienced musicians looking for advice, a method to keep developing I've been approaching and searching.

Autonomy, creativity, curiosity and listening are the main 4 words for me!

I can teach you drums in many styles (rock, funk, jazz, shuffle, pop, linear, world music, songs on demand) and in its many forms AND of course music theory, which can be integrated into the course if necessary, but also be the subject of a private lesson for students who wish support for their courses in an academy or at the Conservatory. This will help you to read music scores and nail sight reading over time!

Would you like to learn to play drums like your favorite artists? Do you own a drum kit and would you like to take drum lessons in pop and rock music at home (in the Mechelen-Haacht-Leuven area)?

With 20 years of drumming experience, I'd love to introduce you to the wonderful world of drums and percussion and teach you all the tricks of the trade.

I am Lukas, a trained jazz drummer with a broad musical background. During my studies, I delved into various styles, including jazz, pop/rock, funk, Latin, and hard rock. I bring this versatility to my lessons.

In my teaching practice, the focus is on relaxed playing technique, timing (microtiming), sound, groove, coordination, musicality, and improvisation. I start as much as possible from the student's interests, supplemented by an extensive range of methods, books, and self-developed practice material.
The lessons take place in my little drum studio on Appelstraat, near the Roma in Antwerp!

During my training, I was taught by, among others, Toni Vitacollona, Jonas Burgwinkel, Teun Verbruggen, Jan-Kris Vinken, Wouter Van Tornhout, Jan De Haas, Lieven Venken, Achim Bill, and Steven Cassiers.

In addition to teaching, I am active as a musician with Cézanne, Naomi Celis, APOKALYPSO, and Away! Away!

Are you interested in drum lessons? Don't hesitate to contact me.

Would you like to start learning drums?

It may seem impossible at first but with the correct technique and guidance it will not take long before you start to build complex grooves, fill them with fast solos, and play your favorite songs like its nothing.

However, to achive these, you need to develop your fundamental skills such as stick and finger control, rhythm and timing, limb independence and basic rudiments, and luckily, I know exactly how you can develop these skills fast and efficient.

The lessons are practical and musical from the start. Rather than treating exercises as isolated tasks, I explain how they connect to real playing, songs, grooves, and fills.

I have more than 10 years of drumming experience and completed Trinity College London Drum Kit Grade 8, with Distinction, which taught me to play most genres, including rock, pop, jazz, samba at an advanced level.
