Organized.listens to your wants and goals.applys technics. Tony in my opinion is a professional. He will get you there the right way. It was obvious when I first met him, that he has a passion for music. I found Tony online. This review is the real deal.

My kid has made great progress with Tony. He looks forward to his lessons every week and is always practicing without being reminded!

Ever since I began drumming with Tony in May, my drumming skills improved overall. When I first met Tony, I already knew how to play drums. During my first lesson, he developed my previous drumming skills. He taught me new rudiments and techniques. He also developed my wrist and improved on my rebound. I am very grateful to have Tony as a teacher.

I have been studying with Tony for 6 years and have found him to be extremely thorough in terms of hand technique, reading rhythms, and coordination while covering all styles of music. I would highly recommend Tony to anyone aspiring to be proficient in the art of drumming weather beginner or professional. JEFF C
