I have been having lessons with Darren for about four months and I'm delighted with the help and support he has provided. As a self-taught drummer who has been playing for years, Darren has been helping me unlearn a huge number of bad habits and turn around a lot of bad technique - with a remarkable level of success. My playing has moved forward more in the last few months than it has in the last ten years. Darren is a patient and flexible teacher who never makes you feel stupid or intimidated. He has the chops to show you how it should sound and the abilty to break things down into manageable bits for you to practice and then build back up. I would recommend him without reservation.

Darren is excellent teacher who is both friendly and well spoken. I have noticed a considerable growth in my playing from his teachings as he addresses the physical, musical and philosophical aspects of the drums, and does so in a way that is fun and easy to comprehend. Highly Recommended!

Darren is a great drum tutor - patient and encouraging. He covers many different techniques and grooves. After just a few weeks my drumming has improved greatly.
