My name is Rick Dior and welcome to my YouTube channel. Several years ago, I began posting some videos for my students to supplement my teaching. I started hearing from drummers and percussionists throughout the world telling me how these videos were helping them. The channel continued to grow and when the pandemic hit, all of a sudden, I had lots of free time, so I decided to put a bit more energy into it.
My channel is dedicated to serious drummers and percussionists who want to develop the best technique and musicality possible. This is an educational channel where you will be challenged to learn the art of playing percussion and drum set at the highest levels.
Many years ago, as a student myself I was very fortunate to work and study with some of the greatest drummers and percussionists to walk this earth. My goal is to pass these skills onto the next generation of performers and to aid in the preservation and advancement of drumming/ percussion techniques.
