MEET YOUR COACH
I’m a veteran globe-trotting DJ, turntablist, music producer and pro DJ instructor who’s obsessed with helping others achieve their DJ dreams.
I teach peeps how to mix, scratch & beat juggle like whoa — and coach beginners to seasoned pros.
As a seasoned turntablist starting back in ’95, I’ve also been teaching the craft of turntablism since 1997.
Don’t let the ‘baby face’ fool ya… you’re lookin’ at one of the first professional DJ instructors in the game with almost 3 decades of expert DJing and teaching experience.
"DJ Shortee is the consummate professional. A skilled educator, a fierce performer, and an all-around inspiration to collaborate with."
— BERKLEE COLLEGE OF MUSIC
From group classes, workshops and private lessons, to books, tutorial videos and online DJ courses — I’ve literally taught thousands of people around the world how to rock the decks.
I even made history by creating the first-ever DJ instructional video series with a comprehensive curriculum on equipment, mixing, scratching & beat juggling. (Back in ’99 when VHS was a thing. 📼)
I’ve also taught for trusted brands like The Grammy Foundation, Berklee College of Music, SAE, Hal Leonard, Scratch DJ Academy, Dubspot, Rane, Serato, Numark, BPM Supreme, and Beat Junkie Institute of Sound.
