I'm An An, and I currently perform as a musician at live houses, music festivals, and various other events. I also manage my own band and teach. Rather than just viewing drumming as a technical exercise, I prefer to see it as a way to "play music together," because true performance isn't just about perfect timing; it's about connecting with the music. I highly value each student's individual situation. Everyone has different learning speeds, goals, and musical preferences, so I tailor my teaching materials and approach to meet their needs.

Style｜Pop Music, Music TheatreCourse Focus｜The course establishes stable singing habits from basic breathing and vocalization, gradually improving pitch, rhythm, and song performance skills, helping students find their unique voice and expression through pop and musical theatre vocal training. ▌About Me Hi! I'm Phoebe, a performer active in musical theatre, pop singing, and stage performances. From music class all the way to the performing arts field, I've continuously gained experience in singing, drama, and stage performance, and have participated in musical theatre productions, solo shows, and large-scale performances such as Della Ding's "A Night Tour" concert series. For me, singing is "telling stories with your voice." I value emotion, tone, and character state, and I care about the "person's" own state and expression. Everyone's vocal conditions, personality, and habits are different, so in class, I will work with students to find the most suitable method for them and the most natural singing state. Rather than rigidly applying formulas, I also hope students can gradually build confidence and find their unique characteristics and stage charisma on the foundation of stable vocalization. ▌Musical Background Education National Taiwan Normal University, Department of Performing Arts Courses are customized according to students' learning goals, helping them find their own voice. Solid Foundation: Establishing correct breathing and stable breath support. Starting from breath support, establish a solid and grounded breath pillar, making singing effortless. ▌Demonstration Videos ▌Musical Performance Experience TPAC Musical Theatre Performance Workshop Presentation "Our Broadway" Actor (2025) Zheng Yujing's Solo Show "The Shape of Freedom Phoebe's Anchor" Performer (2025) Della Ding's "A Night Tour" Concert Series Performer (2025) AM Creative Musical "Boom!

I'm Lin Sung-Hsueh, a jazz drum performer and educator specializing in jazz, and extending to Latin and R&B. To me, the charm of jazz drumming isn't just the rhythm itself, but how it establishes rhythm and dialogue in different types of music. I also enjoy making music with friends, and I maintain my musical state through live performances and continuous practice. In teaching, I pay close attention to students' detailed issues, from feel, rhythm to musicality, gradually identifying key areas for improvement to make learning more efficient. I hope students not only learn to play drums but also understand the history and accumulated techniques behind jazz music, enabling them to achieve more stable and musical performances across various musical styles. ▌Work and Performance Experience Regular performer with Fu Jen combo blues band Drummer for a jazz big band Formerly a substitute teacher for the NTU Jazz Music Club Often performs at jazz venues, including Blackbird Jazz Cafe, Black Hat Jazz Cafe, Riff, and other venues. ▌Demo Videos ▌Demo Videos ▌Teaching Style Focus on details, providing clear improvement methods for students' technical issues Emphasize musicality and groove Gradually build skills from basic rudiments, swing feel to style application Integrate performance experience into teaching Encourage interaction and practice with musical partners to cultivate practical skills ▌Suitable Students This drum course is suitable for you if you: Are a complete beginner who wants to learn jazz drums from scratch Want to establish a correct sense of rhythm and fundamental skills Are interested in jazz, Latin, or R&B music Are a drummer with basic skills looking to improve musicality and stylistic mastery Want to gain more live performance experience and practical skills ▌What you will learn in class Concepts of rhythm and groove in Jazz, Latin, and R&B Correct application of basic drumming and advanced techniques Practical application of Swing feel and funk groove Notation and music comprehension skills Improve overall musicality and live performance ability ▌Target Audience From beginners to advanced levels✔️Ages 6 to adult✔️ Can assist with preparations for performances, competitions, recitals, and certifications✔️ Those who want to build a solid musical foundation or wish to improve their performance skills Book a Class｜Start Drumming
