What our students say!
“I can highly recommend the beginner’s Drumming course! Alan is so patient and introduces topics slowly but at the same time I felt we were being introduced to lots of new concepts every week. I really had no idea how much I would learn and I’m glad I did the course.” Mary Fitzgerald
“Excellent course, would highly recommend. Alan was a really great teacher, patient and clear. As a complete beginner I found this course fun and informative. Can’t wait to build on the skills learned!” by Edel
