By the way, I’ll be posting new additions to my practice loop archive soon. Stay tuned…
I am happy to help you with any of the materials on the site, and with anything else drumming related— contact me for private lessons, online world wide, or in person in Portland, Oregon. All levels of players, and all people, are welcome.
