Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I offer private, one-on-one drum kit instruction in the greater Nashville area. Lessons are custom to each student, and personalized to align with your goals and interests. Lessons are either hosted at my home studio in Nashville - or at your own home behind your very own equipment! Whether it's your first time picking up a pair of sticks, or if you've been at it for a few years already and looking to take the next step forward in your drumming, as a professional drummer, I can help you build foundation and tools you need to express yourself creatively through one of the most fun and rewarding instruments there is - the drum kit! Aside from family, music is my greatest joy in life - whether it's performing live, recording or teaching, there's nothing that I love more. I've been fortunate to have been playing drums for most of my life - and when it comes to teaching, I love being able to share my years of experience behind the kit with my students - to motivate them to set and accomplish their goals, and experience those awesome feelings you get when you achieve something really cool behind the drum kit. Maybe it's an awesome new groove, or a new song you've mastered, or just a burst of creativity that leaves you feeling inspired to keep playing the next day! In my experience, life if so much richer when you have a craft that you're passionate about...

I started taking lessons with Steve a little under a year ago now. I’ve been a guitar player for a long time and play some bass too. Lately I've been getting into writing and producing a lot more, so I decided that I really wanted to work on my skills/understanding on the drum kit so I could take my songwriting and composing to the next level. Steve's been an awesome teacher! He was very patient and encouraging while I was getting used to the coordination of it all. Not to mentioned a super nice, laid back guy - and a really talented drummer too. Figured I’d just be taking a few lessons with him to brush up on some of my rhythm knowledge - but I’m learning a ton and keeping it going. I’m even starting to learn how to read standard music notation. It’s been awesome, really helpful for my songwriting, and I’m looking forward to growing more.

He has been an excellent drum teacher for my daughter so far. Very conscientious.
