About Rob
Visit (concealed information) for scheduling and FAQ. All ages and experience levels welcome!
Me: Featured in Modern Drummer, Downbeat Magazine, Drumeo, Drum Talk TV, over 50 albums recorded, Billboard Top 10, Broadway, international touring, over 20 years experience. I have passion for teaching and passing on knowledge in fun and focused 60-minute virtual lessons.
Do you want to know how to do any of these things?
Learning songs, hand and foot independence, reading music, writing shorthand drum charts, playing great grooves and fills, learning to record, Pro Tools, soloing ideas, melodic playing. I teach all styles, including Rock, Jazz, R&B, Pop, Latin, Hip-Hop.
P.S. (you do NOT need to own a drumset to start lessons)!
All lessons are currently online, but in normal times, lessons take place at C-Room Studio in Brooklyn.
I started teaching privately right 15 years ago and have kept a busy schedule since! I also write educational articles for Drumeo and other publications, and have had many lesson videos featured on the Drum Talk TV.
I grew up in the DC-area and started playing at age 12. I did jazz shows, played with rock bands and got a ton a experience playing with older musicians. I also had an amazing teacher who inspired to me work hard and improve on the instrument, and I know how much of a difference that can make when you're learning. I went to college and had another great teacher, and then started playing full time in Boston before moving to NYC. Since then I've done over 150 shows a year for 15 years and recorded on over 50 commercially available albums across many genres.

Visit (concealed information) and read the FAQ!
Then email me to set up a free phone chat so we can discuss your goals and experience. If it seems like a good fit, you can go on the site book/schedule a single lesson or a block of 4 or 8. I will send a Zoom link and other instructions before the first lesson.
For beginners, I usually start with things like how to set up your kit, how to hold the sticks, basic patterns and coordination, counting. We'll get you playing along with your favorite tunes in no time! For students with more experience, I'll listen to you play, we'll chat about your goals and come up with a plan. I try to personalize each lesson as much as possible!
I teach students of most ages and experience levels, however I don't typically take anyone below age 12.
Find someone who makes you feel good about playing and makes you want to practice and get better. That's what my teachers did for me.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Again, check out the FAQs on (concealed information) but it's good to think about why you want to take lessons, what kinds of music you like, what your experience level is and what kind of gear and practice setup you have.

Rob is a great teacher. I started as a total beginner, and now I am playing Charlie Parker solos on my kit. Rob is able to explain and demonstrate concepts in multiple ways until they finally click. Rob takes his craft seriously but still has a sense of humor. He’s provided thoughtful guidance on all aspects of drumming and is a great guy to chat with. I look forward to my next lesson.
