Thank you, Paul Pietrocarlo, for opening your house for this workshop! We will have a potluck lunch.
This is an all-day playing workshop. Not much theory or philosophy... but a lot of "keep going". Please consider coming for the whole day! Your DRM skills will get a major boost!
All classes are for all levels from beginners to experienced drummers.

Payment options: Pay cash at the event, send a Venmo payment to: @Daniel-Hirtz, I will also be able to take credit cards.
Sunday morning 10 AM to 1 PM:
We will start with simple exercises and practice them for extended periods with minimal intervention. Practices include:
* Developing better symmetry between right and left.
* Dynamics: mixing soft touch ghost notes with heavy tones, bass and slap.
* Practice simple patterns that are universally useful.
* Posture, ease of play, bouncing...
Sunday afternoon 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM:
Continuing from the morning. More of:
* How do I play a groove with minimal energy effort that flows easily?
* What types of grooves are easy for you?
* Polyrhythmic practice - how do I maintain such a pattern while being able to listen to others and the interplay of our patterns together?
* How do I start a groove? Everybody gets a chance.
* How do I best join in with a groove that someone else started.
Classes are very interactive and I will go as far as the group wants to. Come with your questions and help give to you what you need. I will adjust the class to the level and needs of the participants so that everybody gets the maximum out of it.
Cost:
• Morning and afternoon class are each $80 - OYBO (Or Your Best Offer).
• Whole day $120 ($40 saving) - OYBO (Or Your Best Offer).
Please let me explain my pricing: I base my pricing not on the amount of time we are spending together but on the amount of time and money I have put into being the musician and teacher I am. From that perspective, $80 ($120) is not much. This is to make clear to you how I value what I give. I could ask i.e. $500 because I do believe in the very high quality of what I give. OYBO allows you to pick an amount that works for you - less or more. Please know that I will accept whatever you give me without a second thought.
What's imprtant to me:
* ask for the right monetary value as I see it at this time (considering the increase in cost of living).
* to make it possible for you to there independent from how much you can pay.
Please forgive the lengthy text on this part but I think it's important.
