Michael is a Professional Drummer, Tempo Coach and avid Golfer, saw an opportunity to bridge the worlds of music and sports.
Drawing inspiration from the precision of a metronome and the artistry of music composition, he developed a revolutionary training method that harmonizes rhythm and performance.
The concept was simple yet groundbreaking: syncing a golfer's authentic swing tempo with the beats of carefully curated music tracks.
Michael accompanies most Modern Moves Dance sessions offered on YouTube. We are so grateful to have his music, rhythmic expertise and generous spirit support our movement explorations!

“The more rhythmically accurate you are, the more mechanically efficient you will be”.
