“I offer fun drum kit lessons to beginners, intermediates and professionals alike in East Sussex. Whether you’re just starting out on this great instrument or you are well versed and want to look at other areas of your playing, I can help you achieve your potential. All one-on-one lessons are conducted either at my studio in East Sussex or at your house. I also offer Skype lessons around the World – you can be at your home/studio and I can teach you from the UK (prices vary). I also offer master-classes and African drumming classes to schools and groups. My experience in HM Royal Marines Band Service means I can offer the marching cadet unit advice on being a better drum corps and as a percussionist I can help with training for concert bands and orchestra’s.”
