About Katie
Through my company Drum Temple, I empower people to get in touch with their truest expression through hand drumming.
Rhythm is a tool to help us navigate our wellbeing and train ourselves to be more in-line with the world around us. Plus, it's fun to play the drums! We feel it in our soul!
In our lessons, we will learn proper technique, drumming for emotional release and healing, and how to feel more comfortable expressing yourself through music.
We can learn djembe, frame drum, darbuka, snare drum, cajon, bongos, congas, or any other hand drum.
Feel free to reach out with a hello and inquiry on how to begin!
Happy Drumming,
Katie
I began teaching all the way back in high school when I was captain of the drumline in marching band and section leader of the concert percussion section. I have always loved helping others learn to express through music and love to use my ability to relate on a human level to assist with this.
I have trained in hand drumming and classical percussion for many years, beginning in middle school as so many of us do. I have a technical musical background (knowledge of rudiments, disciplined technical skills, and practice habits), and have developed my innate sense of intuitive playing as well to more artistically complement that.

I begin by understanding what their desires and goals are within the musical/artistic and personal contexts. Are we working on fuller personal expression, mostly technique, self confidence, or anything else? We then begin warming up with movement, technique, and a zeroing in on how I can support the student in achieving their goals.
I have worked with students of all types and ages from young special needs students to elderly friends.
I would say to look for someone who you resonate with on a personal level. There are so many teachers who can provide the technical knowledge, but when someone can connect to you personally, the safety center in the brain opens to allow for an even greater experience of learning.
I have recently been deeply involved in women's primal drumming, a ceremonial space I developed to help women remember their true nature as rhythm keepers. I love to empower women with technical skills and the emotional fortitude and power to hold down a rhythm.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students should understand what their goals are for learning. Is this a purely experimental time, a time to learn technique, a time to combine technique and expression, or even a time to use percussion just as a tool to understand oneself more deeply.
