Letter from Jared Falk...
I think deep inside all drummers is an understanding that musicianship is an integral part of being a drummer, and that improving any one aspect of your playing will have benefits in other areas. Unfortunately, most of us don't act on that knowledge, and thus we don't use our full potential. That was my experience early on in my drumming career.
When I was first learning to play in the early 90s - all I really wanted to play was Rock music. I didn't understand why my drum instructor always talked about Jazz, Latin, and other genres of music. If it wasn't the latest hit on the radio - I wasn't interested.
Over the years I began to realize that my earlier immature decisions had really slowed down my playing. I decided to give Jazz a try - to see what all the hype was about. What followed was a complete transformation of how I play the drums!
Yes, learning to play Jazz gave me a new and creative approach to beats, fills, and solo ideas. I'm not just talking about a change in how I played certain styles of music, but a complete overhaul of my playing, including: rock, jazz, latin, funk, and much more!
You see - by beginning to play Jazz - I began developing many advanced skills that contributed to my overall drumming abilities. The skills were completely transferable from one style to the next, and learning these abilities within a musical context really boosted the growth!
Years later I really began to love playing Jazz, and have since played in several Jazz bands that gig around town. In fact, if I were to pick my ideal playing situation today - it would be in a jazz style group (never saw that coming, aha).

Is Mike Michalkow, the instructor in this video, qualified
to teach all these techniques? The answer is absolutely YES!
Here is what industry pros are saying about Mike...
"...he is one of the most energetic and positive educators I have worked with to date... Mikes approach is dynamic and easily understood by beginners and pros..."
For those of you who haven’t had the pleasure of seeing Mike perform in one of his many bands you are also missing something very special. He has a great understanding for all styles of music and continually looks for new ways to improve on his art. It’s easy to see why he is so successful as a music instructor and why he is well respected in the professional community. Mike is truly a student of His craft with a sincere desire to improve as an educator and a professional drummer. We at Yamaha are very proud to have Mike on our team. Ken Infanti |
Mike Michalkow has worked as a clinician with Yamaha for the past 5 years. I am pleased to say he is one of the most energetic and positive educators I have worked with to date. When called upon Mike steps up and performs his clinics as though it was his first. Mikes approach is dynamic and easily understood by beginners and pros. What never seizes to amaze me is each of Mike’s clinics are new and if this can be possible - better than the last.  |
"...he has captured great values to pass on for our drumming community."
Dom Famularo |
I am so impressed with Mike as not only a player, but also as a teacher. I
respect both talents immensely. As a player he wants to continue to learn
and as a teacher he wants to continue to share. I have seen Mike in both situations
and believe he has captured great values to pass on for our drumming |
"...hearing them perform, Mike definitely knows the How and What of teaching."
Chuck Silverman |
I'm proud to have Mike as a friend. It's been a pleasure being able to share our love for drumming and music together. As a drummer and percussionist, I've enjoyed Mike's playing ever since we met. As a teacher, comments from his students, and hearing them perform, tell me that Mike definitely knows the How and What of teaching. |
"...A fine drummer - a well respected teacher"
