Drum lessons
In recent years the drums have become the most popular instrument to take up second only to the guitar. We offer a comprehensive course that caters for the absolute beginner to the more advanced player. Our drum teachers are Simon Bridgestock and Harry Arnold, as with our other lessons these take place at our music school in Ashford, Kent. From beginner to gigging The course will take you from the very basics of drumming. It covers the rudiments, posture, sticking techniques and beats through practical one-to-one sessions. It also includes drum music notation reading (if you wish to take the grades, you can). It's up to you how far you want to take it! One-to-one tuition Rudiments Beats Drum music notation reading Rockschool grades (optional) Tuning the drums Advanced techniques Band workshops Students use Acoustic kits All genres covered - from rock to jazz The ultimate aim of the tuition is to get you playing as soon as you are ready. Even if you have never played before, with a little application and practice it wouldn't be long before you'd be able to hold your own in a band. Lessons last half an hour, but hour sessions are also available.
