Client Testimonials:
I've been taking lessons with Tony every week for four years now, and not once has there ever been a dull or uninteresting moment. He's taught me just about everything I know and I owe all of my skills as a drummer to his teachings. He has a true passion for his instrument and for sharing his skills with others. He has a gift for taking complicated concepts and breaking them down to an easy to understand level; and then expanding them easily into fun, useable skills that I can then build on myself. If I've ever had a problem he's had a solution. He is also great at making the lessons enjoyable. He's a funny guy and he's always got a smile on. He's laid back, fun to be around, enjoys the music he makes, and loves his students and his work. I gladly recommend that anyone looking for drum instructors look to Tony.

I have studied with Tony for the past five years, and his teaching has been invaluable in my growth and development as a musician. He not only teaches playing techniques, but also practical tools for performing and building a career in music. I am now entering music school, and feel fully prepared and confident.

We just wanted to thank you for all you've done for Luke. He's been in demand out in the community; he has played at three other churches, besides being the regular drummer for our own church's worship team. People just can't believe he's only 13 and plays so well. It's all because of you!
