Chris

I`m currently offering drum tuition +. Drum lessons to get you up to a level where you can play your favourite tunes and construct your own grooves. Advice and help with song writing (optional to those interested) and eventual video/audio recordings of you drumming to celebrate your progression.
My tutoring style is informal, easy going and relaxed. I don`t focus on exams and grades. I do focus on fun, fitness, motivation, band dynamics and nurturing your creativity and all at a pace you`re comfortable with.

​;;;REMEMBER - Drumming is for any age, young or old. If you can swing a stick you can give drumming a bash! Want to bring a friend and share your session and have a great bonding experience? No problem!

I teach out of a pro studio in Woking and in a private room in nearby Horsell. Home call lessons are possible but subject to availability. I currently don`t offer online lessons.

Availability: Please contact to arrange a session. First lesson is discounted.

Willing to travel: 8 miles

Experience: I`m a brand new tutor in Surrey but have been drumming for 25+ years and it`s one of my favourite things to do alongside song writing, singing and production. I`ve written, drummed & sung on multiple releases from albums to EP`s and built up a strong discography and oodles of practical experience live and in the studio. Genres range from rock/metal to electro/acoustic/pop. My current active band is UK rock/metal act `Zedi Forder` in which I write, drum & sing.

“Chris has written and been involved in some great musical projects. If he can impart a fraction of what he’s learnt over the years then it’s a fee well spent. I came to him as an intermediate drummer. His style is informal but great fun that gets results!” – Chris Putman (Intermediate Student)

"I truly enjoy my lessons with Chris. He`s a real musician who is very passionate about music and helps you to train your ear rather than just focusing on theory, which helps you to gain more practical skills to be a better drummer. I can already see a huge improvement in my drumming abilities and I`m looking forward to my next session with Chris!"

"GREAT DRUM TEACHER. HE IS AS PATIENT AS HE IS TALENTED. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. I have had a couple of lessons so far and have to say Kerl has been great. He is very patient and encouraging. I was a bit apprehensive at first about taking drum lessons but I can honestly say that it`s worth every penny and I highly recommend it."
