About the lessons

For the beginners

You never sat at a drum set? We'll go step by step through all basic concepts in music and drumming. You'll be introduced to grooves, fills, hand and feet technique, music reading, styles, and much more. I'll make sure to make it fun while we'll play songs from our first lesson.

"Are you experienced?"

If you're not a beginner anymore and want to boost up your playing, or if you want to learn something more specific, I can help you, too.

- Deeply improve your rhythm skills.

- Get the most out of your drumming and play whichever song or style you want.

- Learn everything you need to know to become a professional drummer

How are the lessons like?

Techniques, coordination, independence, styles from Samba to Heavy Metal, plus varied subjects can be studied in my drum classes through books, videos, my own exercises and sharing experiences. As everyone is different, so the lessons can be.
The sessions can be in English, German or Portuguese.

What do I need?

Materials:

- A pair of sticks. I recommend Hickory for the wood. Sizes like 7A (light), 5A (medium) and 5B (medium-heavy) are the most common.

- A music notebook where we'll write exercises, homework, parts of songs, etc.

- A practice pad and a drum set to practice. We know having a drum set at home is not something simple, but you'll need access to one as soon as possible. Without investing too much money you can get a used kit and if you live in an apartment, an electronic set will probably be the best option.

- The book Groove your Ä**, by Dirk Erchinger. We might use also: Stick Control by George L. Stone, 150 Rudimental Solos by Charley Wilcoxon, among others.

- A metronome, which can be a device or an app in your smartphone or computer.

Tips:

- Make sure you have some time between classes to practice. That way, you'll be able to see progress and that will keep you motivated to continue learning.

- A note stand to make it easier to read the notes.

- Start paying attention to the drums in the songs you like. Do you feel their pulse? Do you recognise the drum parts? Which fills and grooves do you like the most?

Marcos is a great teacher and absolutely recommendable!

Unfortunately, I only had the pleasure of taking lessons with him for a short time. But I would take lessons with him as soon as my calendar allows!

Not only is he very personable and empathetic when it comes to the personal goals that you want to pursue as a student. He is also a great and successful musician who understands his craft and knows how to teach it so that you can learn the techniques step by step, regardless of your personal previous knowledge. The lessons were very enjoyable as he provides a good mix of theoretical and practical exercises that you can implement into your own playing.

I can highly recommend Marcos and am of the opinion that both beginners and advanced drummers are in good hands with him.

His band (Dominum) is also worth a recommendation!
