Get Ready for the Dave Weckl
Online School!
The all-new Dave Weckl Online School
will go live sometime in July. Filmed with up to six
high definition cameras in Dave's home studio, you will get
multiple angles of everything - plus fully mixed/mastered sound
produced by Dave.
What is the Dave Weckl
Online School?
A Comprehensive Enyclopedia of Dave
The Dave Weckl Online School is a comprehensive series
of video lessons. The lessons are extremely in-depth and focus
on foundational elements of good playing: ergonomic drum setup,
good tuining, technique, and musicality. Take a look at the
right column of this page for specific courses and lessons that
will be available when the school goes live!
A Support Community
The school will have a forum where drummers can exchange
ideas and tips - and also offer input on Dave's lessons so that
we can improve them. Dave will be checking into the forum from
time-to-time to answer your questions, check out your videos, and
more.
Dave will also have a closed Facebook Group exclusively
for subscribers. He and his team will monitor the
community to give feedback on the discussion.
A Full Spectrum of Content
Dave has filmed lessons with Moeller expert Dom
Famularo, plus discussions with amazing musicians,
including: Mike Stern, Oz Noy, and Tom Kennedy. You will
continue to get new perspectives and motivation from a
wide range of musicians.
Dave will also post "Lessons from the Road." He's
travelling with Chick Corea this summer and will have
his Zoom cameras running each night! He'll post drum
solos and more - with great audio mixes and short
lessons to help you understand what he is doing.
The school will also include full play-along materials so that you
can create content, get feedback, and
improve.
A Tool for Drum Teachers
Dave's courses are the perfect tools for drum teachers. It's a
great way to teach drummers of all ages great foundation.
And teachers will be able to use
Dave's online school at little or no cost by joining our
affiliate program (more on that soon!)
How is Dave's School
Different Than Other Online Learning Platforms?
There
are plenty of YouTube videos and other sites that
teach "licks" and fragments of drumming concepts. Dave
wants to immerse you in the foundation of great drumming
by passing on his knowledge and experience - the
concepts and tools that have helped make him one of the
world's great drummers.
No matter what level you play at - he wants you to think
about your height and position, how your drums are set
up, how to build technique that makes playing
effortless, how to achieve a great drum
sound, and how to create amazing musicality on the
drums.
The online school environment takes Dave's previous
videos to a whole new level. We're not limited to the
running time of a DVD. Dave gets incredibly in-depth
here - presenting everything he has learned throughout
his unique 50 years of playing drums.
How Does This Work and What Does it
Cost?
When the school goes live early this summer, you will be able to
subscribe right here. You will register, enter your
credit card, and immediately gain access. A recurring
fee of $30 per month will be charged to your credt card
