Drum lessons
Our drum lessons are taught in our comfortable soundproofed studios at AOS or Fritwell. All lessons are one-to-one and parents of younger students are welcome to either sit in (bring ear plugs), relax in the waiting room or come back and collect at the end of the lesson… if you are one of our older students, please don't feel it is necessary to bring a parent!!
The studios are equipped with two drum kits, a good stereo system, various other percussive bits and bobs and a whole load of resource material. You can choose to follow a syllabus or we can tailor lessons to address specific concerns, queries or just to learn that ‘one' song that will make your musical life complete!
We have our own carefully developed course and award scheme where students can take bronze, silver and gold awards in their chosen instrument and music technology. Or you can choose to follow the Rockschool or Trinity Guildhall syllabus if you're after qualifications… exams are not compulsory!

- Posture and technique
