This class is best for those who don't yet know drums and want to learn it from a personalized and creative approach rather than a primarily technical one.

Erik and I have been close friends for a little over 2 years now. He's 5 years younger than me, but his knowledge and wisdom is one of many reasons I befriended him. I needed that someone to become like, and he also went through some of the same trauma I went through. Erik knows God very intimately, and it shows. He's also a master drummer, and that's coming from a drummer. His teaching style is very casual... Most of his teachings had happened during deep conversations a group of us would have at a cafeteria table, or in his dorm room where he would hold daily bible studies / discussions / theological wrestlings. As for Erik's creative writing, let me just say that his personal letters of encouragement and C.S.Lewis styled literary works were God-sent at the times he read them to a group of us (his friends). Erik is very intimate with his friends, but at first, expect some professionalism cuz he is wise in who he trusts with his personal side. Lastly, I reccommend this dude simply because he will make anyone a better person in general. Drumming and writing are things that he is a master at, but I have only been given some very good drumming pointers and rudiments, so I can't say how his teaching will be EXACTLY. His Bible studies however... They can change your life if you're the type to wrestle with any cracks in your foundational beliefs.

I've known Erik since 2015, and he's one of the most intelligent, trustworthy, and caring people I know. He's taught me a lot throughout the years I've known him, and I wouldn't be who I am today without him.
