FOCUS
It all begins with practice. To improve at any skill requires consistent, focused effort and many hours of dedicated practice. Having a coach makes that journey easier and more rewarding for everyone, no matter your age or current ability. Coaches pass along hard-earned knowledge and help you steer clear of common mistakes. A skilled coach can spot your strengths and weaknesses, tap into your natural talent, help you learn new material, and guide you confidently to the next level. The Killer Drums Method is the culmination of years of relentless dedication to the arts, musical education, and the therapeutic power of music. Through this approach, owner and lead instructor Karl Killer brings a breath of fresh air to drum lessons, making them not only a highly effective and synergistic learning experience, but an enjoyable one as well. We provide inspiration, instill a strong work ethic, and coach positive life skills — all while rocking out on the drums and creating great music together.
EXPERIENCE
Over 10,000 hours of practice and more than 20 years spent sitting behind the drum kit. This depth of experience is invaluable, and it’s the result of patient, steady growth over time. There are no shortcuts on your drumming journey, and each person’s path is distinct. The Killer Drums Method is thoughtfully designed to accelerate your progress by keeping you focused and maximizing your personal development. Karl is an open book about his journey—sharing both success and failure. Learn from someone who is fiercely passionate about music, who prioritizes education, and who builds a genuine connection that will give you an experience to carry with you for a lifetime.
MY PHILOSOPHY
Music is an essential part of the human experience, and it deserves to be a central component of everyone’s education. Practicing the drums cultivates valuable problem-solving abilities, enhances neuroplasticity, and strengthens bilateral motor coordination. Studying music also creates a space to build confidence, spark creativity, and practice mindfulness, all of which help us understand ourselves on a deeper level.
“I show every student that they are extraordinary human beings capable of extraordinary achievements. I guide them to embrace challenges with enthusiasm, to accept initial failures as part of learning, and to prepare them to navigate and grow from a wide range of complex situations—both in music and in life.” — Karl Killer
