Setup

Timing

reading

and much much more.

Every lesson will be tailored to fit to what you need at that moment in time, You are not going to reading and working on books endlessly without some form of musical awareness as to why you need to work on something.

“I am very inspired by certain drummers that are dedicated, hard working and excellent musicians! Then add on top of that a strong desire to teach and you have the complete musician! Richard Wilson is this person! In our lessons together Rich sets a new standard for himself to reach higher all the time! He inspires people every day! This is a strong commitment to positive change! This is what is needed more in drumming and in life! Rich…keep going!”

“For anyone wanting tuition in the UK , I heartily recommend checking out Rich, a well run and highly pro set up”

Steve White

British Drumming legend

“As a drummer for 20 years, and a teacher for 10, I’d been looking for a teacher to freshen me up. I’d been to three teachers with a particular problem and not had any success. In a tea break during a weekend drum session, Richard solved the problem. Despite Richard being 50 miles away I’ve driven to him for lessons. He’s given me the tools to push on, made practising enjoyable, effortless and effective. In short, he changed my playing and is the reason why I haven’t given up playing. I recommend Richard to anyone that wants to improve, regardless of their type of music”

Aidan Poland

“As a full-time working Drummer and Percussionist it’s always a hard thing to swallow your pride and say to yourself there’s so much more you can learn and work on. Rich is the guy to get in touch with, if you were like me and stuck in a bit of a rut! He’s completely restructured my technique and has so much knowledge on developing creativity! His lessons have been a game changer!”

Pete Mitchell

“Richard Is a very patient and supportive teacher, with the ability to get the best out of his students. He will take into account your specific goals for improvement on your drumming journey, whether you are a complete novice or more advanced. When i have a lesson with Rich i always feel so much better about my drumming, and feel that i can achieve much more than i previously thought. 5 Stars!!”

Dionne

“Every lesson I have with Rich is always an inspiring one, every lesson I take something new away from the lesson that helps me progress as a drummer to improve my ability. Rich is a very inspiring tutor that will help you reach your ability to play and then push you even further. Every lesson that I have with Rich is a great lesson, he is one of my top inspirations to play drums. I have been with him for nearly 3 years now and I have learnt so much from every lesson i’ve had. He has helped me to push my drumming to a new level. Rich is a fantastic drummer and a great person to have lessons with.”
