Christian is warm, approachable, focused, and a top notch musician. He tailors what he teaches to each student: I know because we've used to teach 3 members of our family in one marathon session, all with different needs and abilities. Highly recommend.

Christian has an amazing performance resume (having been a musician in Cirque du Soleil, and active current gigs) and is an affable, intuitive and adaptive instructor for my father of 76. He has a fantastic music studio that is conducive to first-time learners and I wouldn't recommend another instructor other than him!

Chris is an amazong teacher. I have been playing drums for about 5-7 years and I felt that I had hit a wall. Chris was able to identify my mistakes and errors in playing and after just a few lessons I felt that my strokes got easier. He is also very attentive during the lesson. He will keep an eye on so that you are doing it right. Furthermore, he explains all the things that he wants you to learn. Did I mention that he is a super nice and cool guy? If you are interested in really improving he is the best teacher to get.

Christian is very welcoming to a beginner and a beginner's parent. He is prompt, well-equipped, encouraging, helpful, and generous. Beyond the lessons, he assisted us with considering a purchase of drum equipment. I think my high-school beginner is in good hands.
