After a several-year hiatus, I decided to take up drumming again. Doing so under Marco’s attentive supervision has been a very rewarding experience. The lessons are highly tailored to the student’s needs and I surely feel that, after every hour in the studio, I have received invaluable advice on how to improve my technique. Adding to the quality of the lessons and the nice atmosphere, the fact that you can book a large auditorium just for yourself to practice is another big plus. Highly recommended!
Wheter you have experience or have never held a pair of sticks, it’s never too late to take your skills to the next level!
Our story…
…started in 2017 and, since then, many students from all ages enjoyed our customized approach to the drumset. As a student of the drum school, you receive private 1 on 1 lessons and you can schedule your own practice sessions at the building!
The lessons take place in a fully equiped studio, a very comfortable environment where to develop your drumming skills. In late 2022, we joined forces with the music school Muziekhuis050, to continue providing the best music education in the city of Groningen.

Testimonials
I’m learning to drum without any prior knowledge and it is an excellent place where you develop fast. Teachers are very kind, positive, approachable, and experienced. If you ever had the thought of learning the drums, this is the perfect place to start (especially if you are a student!)
Erik Woering
I started playing drums one year ago and already learned a lot. Marco is a very experienced, kind and encouraging teacher. This is why I am always happy to come to my lesson and learn new things. Additionally, it is possible to practice in the studio outside of the lessons, which really helps if you don’t have a drum set at home. 🥁
Natascha Lübbe
Marco has been a great teacher. I really appreciate how he structures the lessons, i.e. a good combination of fun, teaching proper technique, and throughly answering any questions I have. Aside from the lessons, he also provides plenty of opportunity to gain experience in playing in front of other people, partake is small projects, etc.
Won’t see myself quitting anytime soon!
Thijmen Dam
I initially meant to just try a few lessons and explore a new hobby, but I love the personal lessons and eye for detail, while still having time to simply enjoy yourself too! Great place to start or continue drumming.
Seán McTigue
Geweldige leraar voor jong en oud (Ik ben 57). Ik ben 2 jaar geleden gestart en heb een mooie progressie gemaakt. Marco is kundig, flexibel en heeft een plezierige manier van lesgeven. De lesruimte is prettig met mooie instrumenten inclusief de mogelijkheid om buiten de lessen om te oefenen in zijn studio.
