1
Gain 100% confidence in mastering the proper drumming technique
The statistics are alarming but true: 90% of all new drum students will abandon their drumming journey after just four months. The primary reason behind this is inadequate instruction. Drumming is not only about imparting knowledge; it’s much more than that.
It encompasses personal motivation, goal setting, resilience in the face of challenges, and the ability to persevere during tough times. Only an exceptional drum instructor can guide and inspire you through every situation. At The London Drum Institute, we offer the finest dedicated drum instruction in the UK, tailored specifically for adults.
Learning the correct drumming technique from day one is absolutely essential and non-negotiable.
Studying with an inexperienced teacher will inevitably result in re-learning some, or in the worst-case scenario, all of your drumming technique. Ninety percent (90%) of new learners quit drumming for this very reason.
2
Receive personal guidance & motivation from your own highly experienced and qualified drum teacher
The most crucial element in your drumming journey is motivation. The formula of 80% psychology and 20% skill remains just as relevant today. Your mindset and motivation are undeniably pivotal for achieving long-term success in drumming.
Whether your goal is to excel in classical, pop, or jazz drumming, mastering the drums can be a formidable undertaking. It’s nearly certain that you won’t achieve lasting success without the right motivation provided by an exceptional drum teacher.

Gain confidence in learning the drums even if you have NEVER played before!
We understand that one of the most significant challenges for beginners is finding a learning center where you can truly feel welcomed and at home, especially if you’ve never played the drums before.
The VAST MAJORITY of schools and instructors tend to prefer teaching those who already have at least three years of drumming experience. Teaching beginners can be quite challenging due to the extra care required in building the fundamental skills of drumming.
At this stage of learning, you will require ADDITIONAL MOTIVATION and SUPPORT, and most instructors may either be unaware of this fact or may not want to invest the effort.
At the London Drum Institute, we are fully committed to providing the necessary support to help you grasp drumming fundamentals. Furthermore, we always aim to make the learning process enjoyable, regardless of your current skill level.
