If you are questioning your teacher …..
My nephew Martin “Magic” Johnson travels the world as a professional drummer and just like a sailor has a girl in each port, he seems to have a drum kit in every city.
In the following video he explains his strategy to learning. Filmed during a Q&A session at a drum clinic in South Africa in 2009, he explains how he learnt from his first drum teacher – he says:
“find a teacher you have a great respect for and absorb everything they do”
“if you are questioning your teacher then question yourself and if you are still questioning your teacher, after that then find another teacher”…
“the best thing a teacher can give you is that kind of inspiration”….
“if you are going to fake it, fake it convincingly”
This is a very interesting video in many respects, his philosophy, certainly his skill! Watch him play one handed! and his sense of reality. Way To Go Mart!
“the best thing a teacher can give you is that kind of
inspiration”

Next PARTY 10th November 2010 Oxted Community Hall Church Lane Surrey
NLP House Party was designed to make people aware of Neuro Linguistic Programming.
This is not done in a traditional educational way but in a way that the party goers can see the magic of NLP for themselves. Not designed to educate but designed to capture imagination. The way that children learn.
Stories and participation are abundant at NLP House Parties!
At the Party (and that is a hypnotic suggestion) Party Goers play along with the hosts. They see immediate changes in other Party Goers and themselves.
This is the Wow factor!
Create your own adventure because experience is all that there is.
