Fun, friendly lessons from a pro drummer. My teaching is specifically aimed at adults - I`m very passionate about helping adults discover (and further develop) their musical potential. I`ve studied under world class session drummers including Ralph Salmins - who has played drums for the likes of James Brown, Mick Jagger, and Paul McCartney.

There`s no pressure to be `talented` at music - I fundamentally believe that all the key skills that make a drummer sound fantastic can be learnt. Whether you`re a total beginner or a more developed musician, I`d love to hear from you.

Here`s just some of the things we could learn:

Understand and play along to your favourite music/Sit down at any drum kit and lay down a beat/Jam with other musicians in your local area/Discover professional drum technique and how it can transform your playing/Learn how to solo, groove, improvise and unleash higher and higher levels of drumming wizardry/Explore your musicality, and discover the incredible potential of your own creative abilities.

Most importantly, we`ll have a great time, a good laugh and ignite your passion for playing this awesome musical instrument.

As I teach online, I can connect with you from the comfort of your own home.

I`d love to hear from you - even if you`re unsure about whether playing drums is right for you - do get in contact and I`d be happy to answer any questions you may have.
