His teaching is also above par! Because of his skill, love for music, and a passion to help kids learn, I have entrusted my entire percussion section of my marching band to Kirk for the last three years. He has also been a huge part of the band's recruitment for the past five years. His experiences with the Pride of the Southland marching band make him shine!
