After graduating from Berklee College of Music, Patrick has been teaching private lessons and group workshops locally and internationally. Available to all levels.
For drummers, Patrick focuses on drumset and hand percussion, with an approach consisting of rudiments, stick control (for drumset students), and coordination applied to styles: Funk, Jazz, African Drumming, and Rock.
For non-drummers and school workshops, Patrick focuses on connecting with our inner rhythm, using the body and voice to deepen our sense of time, feel, and free expression.

"It was an absolute honor to get to work with one of the drummers I've been listening to so much the past couple months! The few lessons I have had with Patrick were game changing for my playing and how I approach different grooves. I gained way more out of these lessons than I could have hoped for, he really opened up a wide door for me in a whole new area of my playing. Just from a few minutes of listening to me play, he knew exactly where to start working with me and how to push me to help me get my playing where I wanted it to be. Cannot wait to continue lessons with him and learn more from such an amazing musician and person."
-Noah Brooks (Jazz Studies major, Northern Illinois University)
