BUILD A SKILL AND PASSION FOR LIFE. DEVELOP CONFIDENCE.

OUR DRUM LESSONS

We build our lessons on three pillars 1) Technique (rudiments and learning the essential foundational building blocks needed to play with skill and musicality) 2) Creativity. We love our pupils to explore their own musical creativity within the context of songs and rhythm, this includes learning essential fills/phrases and learning key rhythms from the classic drummers of the past. 3) Reading, sight reading and reading of musical notation is a crucial skill for progress and opens up a world of opportunity to play with ensembles. We like to start our young musicians with reading challenges which will lead onto taking their graded exams (grade 1-8)
