Thanks for stopping by! Enjoy the fun 1-on-1 drum and music and movement videos. You may want to watch the “make your own” video first – enjoy!


And here’s a track from the 15+ hours of downloadable audio
(The audio tracks were designed to work for individuals or groups. If you’re an individual, just choose ahead of time if you’re in group 1 or group 2. That’s it!:

My goal is to provide valuable and empowering fun for children with all abilities – just like I do in person.

You’ll see that there is a formula that I use in the videos.  In no time at all, you can create your own themes and games.  Use this method to teach anything you want!

Using the DIY drum circle method, you can create themes and games for whole groups! You can do anything from days of the week to dog breeds to capital cities. This is a great, multi sensory learning tool!

And it’s easy!

You have read plenty about the value of music and drum therapy. The problem that it is usually done in a group and that’s not always practical (or healthy) – and it can be pricey.

Hopefully, the videos that I’ve included will be of value to you.

I do this because I’m driven to help others.  Since being diagnosed with MS I’ve been in the Wall Street Journal, BBC Future, have been featured and on the cover of magazines, have been on NPR, and was even the subject of a documentary. I was also the National MS Society activist of the year, last year.

I am passionate about this and want to make it available to as many people as possible. There is a lot of scientific research showing its impact on cognitive skills, anxiety, focus, the immune system, confidence, and more.

Most of all, they’ll have a great time doing it – and you can do it with them, if you want!

Check out this article that I had published in Autism Parenting Magazine about an
amazing experience that I had with a boy who has autism.
