Mauricio C.

Hey there—I’m not just your teacher, I’m a musician who’s lived and breathed rhythm for over 15 years. My journey started in classical percussion, where I learned to read and write music with the same care as speaking a language. That foundation led me around the world—from performing at festivals in Cuba and Canada to holding down the groove at hotels and venues across the Riviera Maya. But here’s what truly lights me up: sharing this passion with you. My specialty lives where the drumset meets hand percussion—think explosive salsa grooves, hypnotic son jarocho patterns, and the deep pocket of rock and jazz. Whether you’re holding drumsticks for the first time or mastering congas, I create lessons that are both disciplined and deeply fun. I’ve taught in music schools, community centers, and everywhere in between—because I believe music isn’t just about technique, it’s about connection. Together, we won’t just learn rhythms; we’ll build confidence, creativity, and maybe even a little swagger.
