As a student of Babatunde Olatunji, Adebisi Adeleke and Ramon Lopez I have enjoyed the music of other cultures and have added these classes to my private instruction and to Seattle Pacific University percussion course study.
Expand your drumming with the influences from other cultures.

Review of Dan Adams, April 24, 2009
Dan starts at the correct skills for teaching percussion. He starts with rudiments and the physical approach to the instrument. After this is taught it is carried throughout the rest of the levels of instruction. This causes the student to always learn from the best foundation as they cover various styles and instruments. Absolutely the best there is.

Review of Dan Adams, April 23, 2009
Mr. Adams is very knowledgable in all aspects of percussion. He can work with large groups and with single people. I knows how to push you and make you improve. Anybody would be lucky to take lessons with somebody half as good as Mr. Adams.
