About

I’m a professional drummer and educator with over 30 years of experience helping students of all ages reach their musical goals. I performed for three years around the world as the drummer for Cirque du Soleil’s Alegria, and I’m a proud graduate of Musicians Institute, where I earned honors and received two award nominations for Best Stylist and Best Technician.

My lessons are fully customized to each student’s interests, goals, and skill level—whether you’re just starting out, preparing for auditions, or looking to take your playing to the next level. I focus on building solid technique, musicality, and confidence behind the kit in a fun and motivating environment.

    I’m so happy I found Christian. From the very first lesson, it just clicked — not only musically, but on a human level. He really understands me as a person, how I learn, and what motivates me, which makes such a difference. I love his approach to teaching: it’s clear, encouraging, and never overwhelming. Never underwhelming either!
    I’ve already learned several songs that I can play confidently, plus a lot of solid beats that actually feel natural to me now. Every lesson feels productive and fun. Highly recommend Christian to anyone looking for a great drum teacher who truly listens and adapts to you.

    I’ve been learning drums for the first time over the last two months and it’s been really awesome learning from Christian. I’ve seen myself grow a lot. It’s always enjoyable, Christian is encouraging and notices even small improvements I’m making which is always encouraging to know where I am improving week by week. Worth every cent!

    Christian and I have been working together for 3 years now and it has been such a great experience. Christian is an excellent teacher - he is patient, positive, encouraging and extremely knowledgeable and experienced. His skill-set and experience spans across a diverse range of styles and genres and I am constantly impressed by the depth of his ability, both from a technical perspective and style/feel perspective. What I’ve loved the most about working with Christian - other than the fact that he’s just a super genuine and great person - is that he has allowed me to tailor our lessons so that I can get the most out of my time with him. He has adjusted to my style and learning methods and has given me the freedom to explore whatever I want during any given lesson. No two lessons are the same and we are constantly exploring and learning new things. I would highly recommend Christian as a teacher for any level of drum student!

    Very thoughtful teacher. I had tried out the School of Rock first and was given an instructor who had never thought before. Christian is a committed and talented drum instructor who has really grown my confidence and love of the drums in a very short time period. I recommend everybody to go to him.
