A very talented drummer and teacher. Great at breaking things down so you can understand and pick it up easily. Also makes each lesson loads of fun and I always look forward to going each week. Provides videos each week which I can take home and practice too. Can’t believe how far I have come already. Would highly recommend.

Rowan is a very encouraging and patient teacher. I've recently got back into drumming after not playing for over 20 years and I've already learnt loads from him. I'm so glad I decided to pick up my sticks again, my confidence is growing with every lesson and I'm looking forward to learning much more from him.

Rowan has been my drum teacher for 10 years, since I started primary school, and I can't recommend him enough. His passion for music is infectious, and his teaching style is both patient and encouraging. He has a deep understanding of drumming techniques and is always eager to share his knowledge.
Rowan is very good at explaining what I’m learning and makes sure I understand every bit of it. He simplifies parts for me if I don’t understand them and uses analogies to help me understand what I’m learning. He taught me how to teach myself the drums and would let me experiment with the parts that we were learning, he gave me a countless number of ways to learn drums.
He also understood that drums isn’t my main priority as I had many other hobbies so we altered lots of parts to simplify what I was learning but he also helped me find time to learn.
Rowan helped me find a passion for music and grow massively as a drummer. He has helped me develop my skills, improve my technique, and explore different genres of music. His lessons are always engaging, filled with practical exercises and creative challenges that keep me motivated.
What sets Rowan apart is his ability to tailor his teaching to individual students. He gave me the opportunity to choose what I wanted to learn and guided me to to my goals. Rowan is very good at breaking down what I’m learning into simpler parts, altered to how I play and he uses technology such as metronomes and Amazing SlowDowner. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced drummer, Rowan will meet you at your level and help you reach new heights.
Beyond his expertise as a teacher, I also gained a personal connection with Rowan which made lessons more fun. I could talk to him about how my week has been in between lessons and how my other hobbies are going for me. He genuinely cares about his students' progress and personal growth. He created a supportive and inclusive environment for me where I felt comfortable expressing myself through music.
I am incredibly grateful to have had Rowan as my drum teacher for the past decade. His guidance and mentorship have shaped me not only as a musician but also as a person. If you're looking for a drum teacher who is skilled, passionate, and dedicated, look no further than Rowan. He truly deserves a 5-star review!

Once Rowan showed me what it was possible for me to do, there was no going back!

A lady never tells her age but let’s just say, I wouldn’t have thought I would be learning to play the drums once I got here!
I have always loved watching people play the drums, always “air drummed” to my favourite bands and liked to believe I had a “bit of rhythm”, so in passing, happened to mention to my husband that I would like to have ‘had a go at drumming’. As a surprise he found Rowan, contacted him and paid for a ‘one off’ lesson and….I’m hooked!!
Rowan is an excellent teacher, super patient and fun. He asked what I wanted to achieve and listened to what I said and has adapted his teaching to help me get there. His positive attitude to what we are doing makes me feel super confident after each session to want to do more. He breaks down “fills” so that they are less intimidating and gives me a video each week to practice.
I don’t have a drum kit yet but have managed to learn well on a practice pad and anything else that makes a noise. In simple terms, I LOVE drumming! I’m improving with every lesson and think that Rowans teaching methods rock! If you even have the slightest curiosity about whether you can do this, choose Rowan to guide you and bring out your inner rockstar!
Update: this was a review I did a couple of years back and still stands. I’ve had a few life changes so have put weekly drumming on hold for now but Rowan is always happy to accommodate me if I have a couple of spare hours and honestly, you don’t forget what you’ve learned. Drumming is an excellent outlet for life’s stresses and I can’t recommend it enough! Look forward to seeing you soon Rowan!

Rowan is an exceptional teacher. My daughter only recently picked up a pair of sticks and already in only a couple of months she is playing confidently and progressing quickly under Rowan's excellent tuition.
Rowan is really easy going, approachable and friendly - always able to tailor a lesson and think of different ways to teach and explain things so that they click.
The lessons are a real highlight of the week and it makes the practicing in the week fun and exciting.
Thanks Rowan you are a star!

“Rowan is an amazing drumming teacher. He has progressed and inspired my 9 year old son in all aspects of drumming. He has been helpful in giving and recording teaching videos for him to practice at home and is always on hand to ask for advice if needed. I would highly recommend him”

My son Ben started having drum lessons with Rowan at his primary school at age 8 in Year 3. His 1:1 lesson was always the highlight of his school week and he carried on learning from scratch in year 3 through to year 6.
Ben went from being a complete novice to performing in assemblies, including ‘The Pretender’ by the Foo Fighters at his year 6 talent show which Rowan said was easily Secondary school standard.
Both Ben and I were keen for his drumming journey to continue on after primary school so he started having a weekly lesson with Rowan privately.
Three years on since starting private lessons and Ben is now in year 9 at school and has been attending a local bandjam session in addition to Rowan’s lessons which bring together children who play various instruments to form bands. His techniques and skills learnt with Rowan over the years have really shone through in these sessions, noted by their tutors.
Ben is currently choosing his GCSE options and is set on taking Music as he’s confident that with the continued help and guidance from Rowan that he will gain a very good grade in this subject.
We can’t thank Rowan enough for his continued expertise and passion in helping Ben with his drumming and highly recommend him to friends and family regularly.

Rowan has been an excellent drum teacher for my 8-year-old-child. His patience and passion for teaching are clear in every session. My son made a great progress under Rowan's guidance, and he genuinely enjoys his drum lessons.
What sets Rowan apart is his ability to adapt lessons to my son's age and skill level. He keeps the sessions engaging and encourages my son's interest in drumming. Rowan's patient approach has created a positive learning environment.
I highly recommend Rowan as a drum teacher, he brings a great balance of skill, patience and passion to his teaching.

Rowan is a brilliant and enthusiastic drum teacher, who I wouldn't hesitate to recommend. My son has lessons at Rowan's home studio and I am able to stay and watch, which is really lovely. My son says he likes how Rowan explains things in detail and always helps if he's stuck. He finds Rowan to be very encouraging and says he always makes the lessons enjoyable.

My two boys age 7 and 10 have been having lessons with Rowan since Christmas. Every lesson they come out absolutely beaming, not only due to what skills they have learnt, but due to the absolute positivity he radiates. Rowan is such a great example to the kids and has the ability to critique work without making them feel like they have made a mistake, this is a true gift. They did their end of school year performance today and we were completely blown away by all the children he teaches.

My son has been drumming with Rowan for a couple of years now and he has made really great progress. He loves drumming and Rowan has a really fun and effective way of teaching him. Would definitely recommend

Rowan has been teaching my daughter for the last couple of years. Unlike other music teachers, he's been great at guiding her in discovering the joy of learning to play an instrument. I am always wowed at the drumming assemblies when I see how accomplished my daughter and all of Rowan's pupils are, which speaks volumes about his patience and experience.

Rowan has been a fantastic Drum teacher, My son started lessons as a complete beginner and has grown in confidence and skill at a fast but competent rate.
He offers good advice and enjoyable lessons.
Watching his students perform recently to the whole School including my son who opened the performance showcased a diverse and skilful range of drumming styles and levels, each student confident in their abilities thanks to his tuition.
I would highly recommend his teaching to anyone thinking of taking up drums for themselves or their child.
Thank you

Rowan is such an amazing teacher. My son is 8, struggles with concentration and massively struggles with authority yet when he has his drum lessons, is completely focused and listens intently. Rowan has a way of bringing out the best in his students. My son has only been having lessons at school for 9 months and I was blown away today at his drumming concert. I wish all teachers could build such a great rapport and earn the respect from their students that Rowan does. Even if my son has had a tricky morning at school, he listens to and respects Rowan which is amazing. There is a lot of research stating that music helps with a child’s cognitive and learning ability. I wasn’t convinced of this until my son started drumming lessons with Rowan. I see it now and know that I was wrong. Rowan’s commitment to his pupils and the extra mile he goes is outstanding. I can’t recommend him enough.

Rowan has been teaching my son since he was 5 years old and has been absolutely brilliant at adapting his methods and ideas to suit a little one. My son has grown in confidence and in drum skills and absolutely loves his drum lessons, especially when I book extra slots in the school holidays! Rowan is an excellent drum teacher whose own passion and dedication to all things drumming and music, as well as his endless patience, help to enthuse my son to keep up with his practise at home and want to try new things so that some day he can hopefully be in a band of his own! Rowan's purpose built drum studio at his home is the perfect set up for 1:1 private tuition. I would highly recommend Rowan if you are looking for an excellent drum teacher in the local area.
