JP Google Review

“…the quality of teaching that Lee has to offer is of the absolute highest standard… arguably this has to be one of the best setups in the East Midlands, if not the UK.”

HB Google Review

“…The lessons can be whatever you want them to be… whether it’s working your way up the grades, or whether you want to learn how to play your favourite tracks.” 

PH Google Review

“I can’t think of a better place to learn to play the drums or a better person to be taught by!.. With 7 years of lessons, I finished every one of them knowing I’d learnt something new.”
