Playing fast around the drums is one thing. But to play music, to play with people for others to listen to, that’s something else. That’s a whole other world.
Tony Williams
Our drum tuition covers all ages from complete beginners to advanced players and the student can never be too young or old to get started.
Lessons are tailored to the student and their specific goals to ensure positive progress. All styles are covered from contemporary Pop, Rock, Funk, Jazz, Latin and World Rhythms. In addition, note values, sight-reading, time-keeping, compound time signatures and working with click tracks and sequencers.
Whether the student is looking to Jam with Daft Punk, Get Down with James Brown, play Cool Jazz with Miles Davis or Rock Out with AC DC, anything is possible once enrolled. Drumming can help improve concentration and coordination, boost self-confidence, relieve stress, aid relaxation and improve verbal, perceptual, numeric, spatial & motor skills.
