Experienced drums lessons teacher in Drum in Minnetonka, Dan offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Dan is able to adjust his curriculum and teaching style for all types of students. I happen to have taken up percussion late in life and Dan has no problem pivoting from teaching mostly youth, to someone like me. I’m sure he adjusts similarly for students of all ages, abilities, and communication styles.

He and our son get along so well. He loves Monday's when he gets to go to lessons.

Dan is one of the best teachers I have ever had and i only get to see him once a a week. He is so supportive and knowledgeable regarding music and teaching. He's very accessible for any scheduling issues and has helped a lot over the years improve my skill and prepare me for any and all performances.

Dan is a talented percussion instructor whom has been instrumental in the advancement of my daughter’s percussion skills and performance (beyond peers and school curriculum). His success as a teacher is attributed to the combination of his skills/experience as a musician-performer and his ability to assess students’ learning level/style to deliver personalized instruction (in a calming environment). I highly recommend Dan to any new or existing percussion player.

Dan is super patient with his students and very easy-going. He's also very personable and is very easy to connect with if you ever have questions. Dan is really good at drumming, too...wish I had him as a teacher growing up!

Dan is very friendly, prompt, and flexible when things come up for families. My son(9) has been working with Dan (Drums) for about 2 years now and says "he is always nice and makes it fun". Dad also is great about individual music genre preferences. My son loves Imagine Dragons and music like that so he teaches with those songs to keep him interested.
