"...he has captured great values to pass on for our drumming community."



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 community. Mike, keep the spirit going!

Mike Michalkow did an A++++ job with his DVD - The Moeller Method! I love every part of it. The DVD is very informative and a never ending source of tips and tricks. A MUST HAVE for every drummer!

The DVD helped me from the first minute I watched it. There is so much information on it... I don't know how long I will take to get through it. I can see most of my improvement in my speed ... I am faster and more relaxed and this is just the beginning. Can't wait to learn more from Mike.

Thanks for such a great DVD!!

Simply put my technique has improved 100%. This DVD has given me new found confidence...



In my opinion Mike Michalkow has a special quality as an educator. The ability to empathize with his students. If a particular rudiment is difficult to master he tells you straight. By admitting that he himself had sometimes certain difficulties in mastering certain techniques and how with patience you can improve your skill level.

I am a mature drummer but have suddenly found a vast improvement in my ease of playing and my confidence and ability in soloing and much of that is due to Mikes DVD and style of educating. He takes the time to reply to you with any queries that you may have. Moeller Method Secrets is quite simply an excellent product presented in a professional way.

Simply put my technique has improved 100%. This DVD has given me new found confidence and ability. Finally I can play paradiddles properly !!!

"This is the best intsructional disc covering the fundamentals of technique I've ever seen..."



I got your new DVD yesterday and watched most of the first disc last night. Okay, the honest truth here: This is the best intsructional disc covering the fundamentals of technique I've ever seen (and I've got a lot of 'em). Thanks a lot man!

Follow-up: I think you're brilliant man! The performance disk is spectacular. Your feel for dynamics, your technique, the melodic stuff going on in your solos ... just the way you put your solos together. Well, I'll stop gushing now, but what a pleasure man.
