BEGIN — a 9-Week Online Beginner Drum Course 🥁
It’s here!
Your drumming journey starts right now with BEGIN — a 9-week online course designed to take you from total beginner to confident drummer.
We’ll start at the very beginning — I’m talking:

FAQS:
-
Ideally, you’ll want at least a practice pad or small practice kit to start. As the weeks go on, you’ll likely want to move on to a full kit — electronic or acoustic, it doesn’t matter.
-
Not necessarily! As long as you have access to a drum kit — whether it’s borrowing a friend’s set, using a rehearsal room, or practicing on a pad at home — you can make it work for you. 🥁
-
No — this course is self-paced and online, so you choose when and how you study. I will be popping in and out of the community chats, setting challenges, and uploading new lessons, but the course does not include guaranteed 1:1 time.
-
Forever or until its upgraded or revamped :)
-
No. I will be inviting you to learn how to read within these lessons but you can get by without it.
-
Nope, this is for anyone wanting to learn the drums - musical or not :)
-
No such thing. Go at your own pace and enjoy it as you go.
-
There is opportunity for feedback through some of the challenges, so you can see how you’re doing. However, 1:1 feedback is not guaranteed.
-
There will be occasional live sessions and challenges yes :-)
-
Refunds aren’t available, but once you join you get full access to all lessons, challenges, and the community — so you can learn at your own pace and enjoy the journey. 🥁
