About Dave
I have been playing, performing, and teaching Drum Set, Snare Drum, Djembe, Conga, Dumbek, and Bodhran for over 40 years.
Over the years, I have performed from upstate New York down to Virginia. I have taught private lessons as well as group workshops for numerous organizations, schools, colleges/ universities, and conferences, in addition to my own studio. Recently, I have added online classes as well.
My approach makes learning easy; breaking concepts down into simple ideas that are quickly understood. Then, by blending those ideas with technique exercises, students are able to play with confidence in a short amount of time. They sound great and have fun making music.

Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
Dave is an excellent teacher! He is extremely knowledgeable and uses a variety of methods when teaching. In Dave's class, you will have lots of laughs while you will learn!
Dave is a very experienced and knowledgeable instructor and he breaks rhythms down into easy, manageable and enjoyable lessons. He also understands and respects where different rhythms come from and ensures that his students understand the roots of various styles. He is patient and clearly loves teaching. I would highly recommend him.
I received written pages of all the rhythms we are learning. He gave us all an application for a metronome and a zoom instructional class. He starts on time and is always organized ! Dave is an extremely patient teacher and I've learned 12 different African Rhythms over this year!
DDLC teaches to the student. We all learn in different ways, whether visual, aural, verbal, etc., and this is how Dave teaches. His breakdowns of showing pathways to any given rhythm are excellent, and really facilitate learning.
Excellent instruction! Dave has a way of getting his students playing well, quickly.
