I'm an amateur drummer taking lessons from Rob for 2.5 years. My playing has improved tremendously in that time in large part from Rob's instruction.

I’ve been taking lessons from Rob for over 3 years. He’s a wonderful teacher and really understands how people learn. He has two kits, so he can demo very easily.

He has flexibility and is very willing to reschedule. I’m so happy I found him!

Rob is an awesome teacher and really nice person! I am a music educator as well (guitar), and decided to book some drum lessons to take a deeper dive into rhythm, and just for the joy of learning a new instrument. I have been very happy with my lessons and would highly recommend Rob to anyone wanting to learn drums!
