AARON SPEARS

BAND:  USHER, JAMES BROWN ,ALICIA KEYS Aaron      went      on      to      become      a professional           drummer           who eventually    became    known    for    his skills   in   the   R&B   style   of   drumming. A    little    later    on,    Aaron    joined    the Funk        Rock        Orchestra,        which belonged     to     Usher.     Aaron     has played    for    Usher    since    then,    and also     recorded     for     the     platinum album   “Confessions”.   Aaron   Spears has   performed   at   many   grand   tours with   Usher.   His   style   is   very   funky and   technical.   His   very   hope   is   that he     will     be     able     to     inspire     and encourage            other            talented drummers,   in   the   same   way   that   he was inspired by these great guys.
POUND   is   a   place   where   the   rhythm   rules.   Where   the   beat   becomes   us.   At   every   age and   any   stage.   Movement   Musicians   are   born.   We   are   a   family   of   Fitness   Rebels born    to    stand    out,    make    noise    and    disrupt    norms.    We    turn    workouts    into    Jam Sessions   and   balance   into   a   lifestyle.   We’re   not   afraid   to   turn   up   the   volume   -in   class, as   humans,   or   in   life.   As   a   community,   we   believe   that   we   have   the   ability   to   inspire   a nation,   to   turn   the   fitness   world   on   its   head,   and   to   truly   find   alternative   ways   to ROCK.   We   POUND   with   PASSION   and   we   AIM   for   Progress.   We   aspire   to   change minds   before   bodies   and   use   beat   to   launch   people   to   new   heights   of   self-worth, happiness     and     human     connection.     Co-creators     Kirsten     Potenza     and     Cristina Peerenboom   were   both   recreational   drummers   and   former   athletes.   They   relied heavily    on    stability-based    exercises    like    Pilates    to    keep    their    bodies    aligned, symmetrical   and   lean,   but   were   bored   with   routine   and   longed   to   reignite   the   fun   in exercise.   It   wasn’t   until   they   were   forced   to   drum   without   a   stool   and   squat   over   the drum kit that they realized drumming and exercise could be one and the same. What   began   as   one   class   in   Los   Angeles   in   2011   has   now   reached   international acclaim with a network of over 7,000 instructors in 35 countries.

             PRESS RELEASE Due to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, Sisters Productions regretfully announce that Nasyr Drum Camp 2017, set to take place in St. Martin on January 8th to the 14th , will be postponed to a later date in June or July. Many students who registered have called and expressed their concerns with the uncertainty of this economic restructure set to take place at the same time as our drum camp. I have discussed the issues with some students, their parents and with our sponsors and staff.  With regards to their concerns and to the success and safety of this event, Nasyr and I have decided to postpone the drum camp.   Another concern is the threat of the Zika virus on the island, with several of our venues taking place outside we feel that we are not comfortable with the risk even if it is minimal.  Reports on the   CDC  website have raised the threat level to 2 Practice Enhanced Precautions Despite our policy of non refundable deposits   we will gladly refund all deposits to our students. Those who wish to leave their deposits in trust for our rescheduled drum camp will be entitled to a 25% discount. We apologize for the inconvenience that you may suffer as a result of this delay and we thank you for the many emails and for the overwhelming support you have given us.  We would also like to thank our sponsors for the understanding and continuous support they have shown us for our future event.  If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
