We use a method developed by Victoria drum instructor Murray Creed called Groove Essentials. This skill building system is challenging and rewarding for all drummers to progress through.
Starting with the basic rudiments it moves through a variety of styles, helping students to build their skills and musicianship very quickly while being a lot of fun. Highly recommended!

Our Commitment to Students:
We honour who you are and how you learn by helping to you define the lesson direction, and by presenting you information and exercises that suit your learning style. We work with your strengths, and explore ways to improve on weaknesses.
Like an ongoing conversation, we ask questions, listen intently, and address your questions. We play songs, practice together, share our experience, cover the foundational skills, challenge limits, look inside the music to give context and explain the language.
We write, jam, duet, sing, breathe, record, reflect, laugh, review.
We learn why and how to practice.
Did I mention, we PLAY, a lot!
We encourage and support performances, both solo and in groups.
Our Commitment to the Community:
Every year, we donate all proceeds from our concerts to local charities. In the past, we've given to AIDS Vancouver Island, YM-YWCA Youth Outreach X-Mas Hamper , The Sanctuary Youth Drop-In Centre, and Our Place Society.
We don't like to blow our horn too much but would like you to know that we support local youth, families and community members, especially in their musical interests, as a way to give back and show gratitude to all the wonderful students and families that we get to work with year after year.
