Nick has taught percussion to adults since 1999.  Many of his students have since joined bands and performed live around New York.  His teaching approach for adults emphasizes clean and consistent sounds, the history and traditions behind the music, and a common sense approach to timing, pulse and the Clave Concept.

Most of Nicks past and present students have studied congas, bongos and cowbell.  Lessons are also available in: guiro, tamborim, pandeiro, agogô, surdo, repique, chocalho, caixa.

Nick usually teaches private students at his Manhattan location.  He can travel to your home or studio for an additional fee.

Normally Nick teaches a group class every Wednesday (as of May 2020 this class is being held online).
