Percussion Training Programs:

Audition Condition (tm) - preps sophomores, juniors and seniors for college percussion auditions. Through solid relationships with many colleges, we help a students match their skills to meet unique percussion audition criteria. College faculties tell us it is quite common to have an auditioning student play their high school drum cadence only, thinking that is sufficient. Despite good band directors, students are lacking in their presentation skills, percussion skill diversity, and knowledge of proper audition preparation. Jim provides private lesson coaching and goal setting with great results!


Home School Augmentation

Jim will visit home school networks or home school students as a related arts or music education program.
