Drums Demystified: Beginner Drumming

Always wanted to have a go at the drum set? Here’s your chance! Whether you’ve secretly dreamed of channelling your inner rock god or just want to indulge that mid-life crisis, this beginner drumming course with Greg Mills is the perfect way to get started.

Greg will introduce you to the mechanics of the drum kit and show you how to make it work. You’ll learn a classic rock groove, discover how it fits into some familiar songs, and then practice playing along to popular tracks. While there will be some basic instruction on technique, the main focus is on getting you playing, feeling the groove, and having a great time.

What You’ll Learn:

• Drum Kit Mechanics: Get a quick overview of the drum kit and how to set it up.
• Classic Rock Grooves: Learn iconic beats from rock history and how they shape the music.
• Play Along Sessions: Practice what you’ve learned by drumming along to well-known songs.
• Feel the Groove: Focus on timing, rhythm, and the joy of playing with music.
• Basic Technique: Pick up essential drumming skills, without getting bogged down in too much detail.
