What
others say about Marla's Drumming Workshops:
"I am
so grateful to Marla for bringing frame drumming into my
life...and for making it so easy to learn! She's a bright and
passionate soul, whose enthusiasm for the instrument is
infectious. Not only is she an amazing drummer, but she's a
fantastic teacher, with an intuitive sense of how much to
challenge each individual student, she downloads her knowledge
with the ease of a master. And she makes it a total blast".
-Cara Haycak
*
"A gifted
musician who brings the sacred into her music, Marla inspires
with her endless searching for perfection through the mystical
frame drum. As an added bonus, she is a dedicated and
methodical teacher who is able to tune into the unique needs of
her students - a real gift." -Ana Flore
"Thank you for opening the doors of drumming.
I have always wanted to learn and the way you presented it to me was so
clear, easy to understand. You made difficult rhythms seem so easy"
-Daphna Cooling
"Marla led the
drumming workshop with such knowledge and enthusiasm that I was totally
drawn into the experience. I like artists that have a true passion for what
they do and that can convey their own excitement as well as a deep knowledge
of their art.”
