As an advanced student you will benefit from Planet Drum’s teachers’ knowledge and expertise, helping you to broaden your repertoire and explore your full potential at 1 to 1 and group coaching.

Planet Drum has devised well-structured courses so that every time you sit down to learn, you have a clear concept of what you are about to do.
The taster lesson will include an assessment at which you will be able to discuss your requirements, technical issues and goals.
 
 
 
   

‘Pro’ players

 

Planet Drum students include drummers who have played with Elton John, Donna Summer, John Martin, the JTQ and many others. Most pros come to us to resolve a particular technical issue (grip, reading, stylistic, etc), or want to refresh their playing by learning new skills.
