Private Lessons

George teaches remotely from his studio in Santa Rosa CA using Zoom or FaceTime. Lessons are tailored to each student using Inner Drumming as the foundation for the study of Jazz, Funk, Polyrhythms, Odd Time Signatures, and Improvisation.

 

Quotes from some of George’s Students

​

"The goal is to clear the internal pathways for a direct expression of impulse, thought, and feeling. Elliot Kavee (Henry Threadgill—Zooid)

 

"I took a lesson with George when he visited Wichita State in 1984.

It totally welcomed me to a flowing path of expression.

Not to simplify his concept, but he taught me, or re-taught me, how to sit and breathe.

George is a beautiful soul with a caring sound, deep spirit and an effervescent spirit. Please, check him out!”  Matthew Wilson (Musician of the Year Jazz Journalists Association 2018)
