testimonials
“If you are a woman drummer, please attend a camp with JJ. No matter what level you're at, you'll enjoy every moment. JJ teaches everything so clearly and then plays with the group to imprint what she just taught. JJ is also very kind and generous, and makes everyone feel empowered and capable. I learned so much…and met four of the nicest women. We all just bonded and had such joy behind our drums for two days.” - Genna F.
