“Joachim is an amazing drum teacher. I went in so nervous as a total beginner in my 30’s and he got me reading music, playing confidently and really enjoying the instrument. He has years of experience, is really personable and all round great guy”.

“I came to the drums relatively late in life. I was 39 and had always wanted to give it a try. I tried online lessons for a while but i needed someone who could watch me and help me get the fundamentals right. I also had no idea what i was doing and needed someone to lay out a plan for me. Joachim did all of those things while making it fun and enjoyable. 4 years later I still attend regular lessons, I play in a band and I think of Joachim more as a friend than a teacher.”

“Joachim is a fantastic drum teacher - I really can’t recommend him highly enough. My son has been learning drums with him for a term now and absolutely loves his lessons. When he first started, my son was keen to start playing songs immediately despite having no musical experience. I was worried that he might lose interest if he found that he couldn’t do that, but I was so impressed (and my son was delighted!) that Joachim had him learning songs from the very first lesson, while also teaching him some theory and practical exercises at the same time. Joachim is clearly a very talented and experienced drummer himself as well as being a patient and understanding teacher. If you’re looking for an excellent drum teacher who ‘gets’ why you or your child want to learn drums and is able to individualise his lessons to match your needs, I highly recommend Joachim.”

“Massive thank you to Joachim for being an incredibly patient and attentive teacher. He has taught me so much, every lesson is relaxed and enjoyable and I always come out with a smile on my face.”

— Elsie Allen, AUS

“Big thank you to Joachim for his unfailing patience and humour while teaching my 8 year old son. Leo can’t wait to go to drum lessons every week. I’m so impressed how he’s coming along. Joachim helped us source a suitable kit and my favourite lesson so far was listening to Leo drum while Joachim played his guitar. If you’re looking for an awesome drum teacher, look no further!.”

— Cath Wood, AUS

“After having always dreamed of playing drums I can honestly say that starting lessons with Joachim was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I came to drumming relatively late and was very nervous and skeptical of my ability to pick up the skills but with Joachim I have already gone much further than I ever hoped. I’ve been taking lessons for about two years and I’m doing things behind the kit now that I only ever dreamed about being able to do. As a teacher Joachim is patient, friendly and very knowledgeable. The lessons are always interesting, and thorough. With Joachim I have developed an ever-expanding repertoire of rudiments, have covered a wide range of drumming styles, and have even learnt to read and write drum charts. I have appreciated having Joachim’s encouragement to keep trying, to not be afraid of having a go at something new, and his depth of knowledge and appreciation for the drums. Above all the lessons are fun and I always walk away with a smile on my face and new songs and ideas to try out when I get home that I know will be a blast to play. I can’t recommend Joachim highly enough.”
