Long ago, I realized that the core principles of group drumming are the same fundamental principles that helped communities worldwide (including, and especially, corporations) thrive: I call these the "Three C's of Community: Communicating, Cooperating & Celebrating! I've designed purpose-driven group drumming programs to present, and reinforce, these principles in down-to-earth, fun ways!

I've been blessed to visit communities of all types, and to participate in special events, partner with local people and learn about the many ways in which people worldwide live their lives. I was especially proud and humbled to be invited to participate in a tribute event for ground-breaking African drummer, composer, educator and social activist Babatunde Olatunji. This event took place in April of 2001 in Middletown, New York and brought in percussionists from the worldwide drumming community to show respect for our friend and mentor Baba. Baba left us on April 6, 2003. Baba: I miss your presence as a friend, as an inspirational elder and as a musician. Among the many, many lessons I learned from you include how to live this life with integrity as a musician, as a man and as a human being. Baba, your Spirit lives in our hearts and speaks through our drumming! These photos were taken at a drum circle that I facilitated during Baba's event in Middletown. This was just one of many activities that were conducted by people over the course of the Tribute.

They are my teachers and my inspiration. I am privileged to be able to do what I love to do with young people who are just beginning to find their own passions in life. Rhythm activities, when driven by focused intentions, are a fun and exciting way to reinforce many of the fundamental principles of creating a life-long pursuit of living life with purpose, patience, perseverance and passion!

I've dedicated my life to sharing the physical, mental and emotional benefits of purpose-driven rhythm-play worldwide with people from all walks of life. In fact, I use Rhythm-play as a fun and engaging vehicle for helping people, (myself included!) create and reinforce real-world Life Skills and Life Rhythms... to replace negative patterns with powerful and productive Life patterns of thought and action. We have the power to create... beat-by-beat... the lives that we WANT to live!

I love to teach... I will always teach, because teaching is one of the ways I continue to learn... about drumming, about myself, about people and about life! Since 1980, I've taught one-on-one lessons, group classes and workshops, and conducted rhythm-based activities. My teaching has brought me to communities, schools, music stores and private groups worldwide. I also want to express my sincerest appreciation for my music industry sponsors... they make much of my teaching journeys possible: I am a proud endorser/clinician for: Latin Percussion Instruments, Sabian Cymbals, ProMark Drumsticks, Gibraltar Drum Hardware, Audix Microphones and Factory Metal Percussion
