Testimonials What do those who have worked with Celene think of her? "I didn't expect to hear that out of you!" - Jimmy Cobb, Legendary Jazz Drummer (Miles Davis, John Coltrane) "Celene is always my first choice when it comes to booking a percussion clinician!" - Sara Banke, Robert Warren Middle School “Celene is the best drum teacher I've ever had. She takes the time to explain and examine techniques, and I've felt both challenged and encouraged under her instruction.” - Sandy Lam, student "All of the musicianship I have today I can trace back to Celene." - Mike Young, student "Wow! That was FUN!" - Larry Carloni, student after his first lesson "Celene Yohemas has been an asset to The Clinic Line. Her mastery of the instrument, professionalism, and pedagogical expertise has made her one of the most requested clinicians. We always know that when we hire her to work with a percussion group, she will do a wonderful job. She has limitless energy, a positive attitude, and the students and teachers are always pleased with her instruction." - Rachael Flatt, Clinician Coordinator for The Clinic Line “Celene is the ‘lettuce chopping’ queen of country music. Her train shuffles are the best I’ve ever played with” - Tim Pearson, guitarist Rooster in a Henhouse "My association with Celene Yohemas began in the summer of 2001 at the Air Cadet Camp in Penhold, Alberta. I was the director of the Senior band for the 8 week summer and Miss Yohemas was the percussion/theory instructor attached to my band and luckily for my cadets (and myself), this remained the same for the next 6 summers. Miss Yohemas is an excellent teacher (performer!) with excellent skills in her subject area. She creates a great classroom atmosphere where students enjoy learning from her but if need be, she will be sure they know she's in charge! These are the reasons that she is always my 'first call' for percussionist when I'm trying to fill a slate of clinicians for the 20 - 25 band camps I set up each year. She is very good at what she does and I hope our association will continue for many years." -Barry Valleau Band Teacher (ret'd)/Guest conductor/clinician
