    Heidi,
    I love, love, love the lessons! . . . The overall structure of the lesson plans are excellent. Watching the placement of your hands is a perfect way to reinforce the technique you’ve laid out. All of your explanations are clear and concise. The gradual increase in speed during the practice sessions as well as the use of a metronome are also incredibly helpful. And watching you play each groove at full speed at the beginning of the session is flat out inspiring! I started a couple weeks ago and have been practicing 2 hours a day. I’m pretty surprised at my progress having never played a percussion instrument before. The only suggestion I have is in the Rhythms and Groove Sections . . . It would at least help me if there was one more incremental increase in tempo right before ramping it up to the final full speed. I can master the second to last tempo and then it seems like a huge jump to full speed and I find myself floundering. In any case, I love the instrument and I love the lessons. I am a 72 year old vocalist and my goal is to master this beautiful instrument and eventually be able to accompany myself in performance.. Thanks for offering yourself and your talent to the world. Onward and upward!!!
    Neeta
