TESTIMONIAL FROM SUSAN RICHARDSON
I’ve had a lifelong dream of playing the drums but had never sat down at a drum kit before I started taking lessons with Shawn. Fortunately for me, Shawn’s talent as a musician and teacher is exceptional. His commitment to teaching the fundamentals of technique and theory has given me a strong base from which to grow, all while learning songs that I enjoy, which has built my confidence. He’s an experienced guide when I’m trying something new, making it fun along the way. Best of all, Shawn has shared a belief in my dream. Thanks to him, it has come true!
