Bruce Becker was a longtime student of Freddie Gruber, Becker was on the inside track of Grubers world and has developed and extended Grubers ideas about drum technique, including œthe balance and motion of the stick, and understanding the natural principles of the physical bodys interaction with the drum set.

Bruces yoga practice has also been incorporated to integrate a "Mind-Body Connection" component into his teachings. Beckers technique insights have been sought after by students such as David Garibaldi, Tris Imboden, Jiro Yamaguchi, Jake Slichter, Mark Schulman, and Daniel Glass.
