Our drum lessons provide an enriching experience for drummers of all abilities, from creating a strong foundation and honing technique to fostering creativity and rhythm.

The drums are a perfect instrument for aspiring musicians of all ages. Our students are a mix of ages from 5 years old to 65+. We constantly strive to keep lessons exciting and focused on the individual and their learning goals.

At Rockphonix we encourage a relaxed, informal teaching approach. Parents of younger students are welcome to sit in on sessions (if they can tolerate the noise!), as this can sometimes help them settle in the first few lessons.

Our drum lessons will help with: -


  • A Solid Foundation; our drum instructors will teach you the fundamentals of hand and foot coordination, appropriate grip, drum notation, and rhythm. 
  • Tailored Learning Experience; tailored to individual learning styles and interests our teachers will assess your musical talents, shortcomings, and aspirations to build personalised lesson plan.
  • Improved Technique and Precision; we'll help you polish your technique and improve precision. This not only adds to your sound quality, but it also protects you from problems caused by bad posture or repetitive strain.
  • Enhanced Creativity and Musicality; we aim to promote creativity and musicality in addition to technical components. Your drum teacher will introduce you to new beats, patterns, and styles as you improve, extending your musical vocabulary.
  • Rhythmic Awareness and Timing; a good sense of rhythm and flawless time are two of the most important abilities a drummer must have. Through exercises and playing along with varied tunes, our lessons emphasise rhythmic awareness.
  • Performance Confidence; drum lessons help open up opportunities for performance, such as recitals or jam sessions, which can increase your confidence and stage presence.

    • What is your approach to teaching drums?

      Rockphonix is not a traditional music school in that our approach to teaching is largely informal based on the aspirations of the student.


      We still like to create lesson plans and a structured  learning plan however this will be created in conjunction with your teacher and is unique to every student.


      So whether you are a complete beginner or you've been playing a while we can help.

    • Where are you located in Worcester?

      The Rockphonix premises is located on the first floor of 63 Broad Street. We are opposite HSBC (you will see our signs in the window). The entrance is located to the right.


      Please note that unfortunately it is stairs access only to the teaching rooms.

    • Do you teach drums to beginners?

      We absolutely teach those who are entirely new to the drums! Even if you've never picked a set of sticks, it does not matter.


      Our teachers are accustomed to working with students of all ability levels.

    • What ages do your drum lessons cater for?

      Drums are ideal for younger ages and budding musicians. We teach students of all ages, from around 7 years old to 65 and above.


      Whether you have a little legend wanting to have fun or you're a more mature student looking to learn a new skill, we're sure our teachers can help you.

    • Do I need my own drum kit at home?

      While of course it helps to be able to practice outside of lesson time, it is not essential. The teachers are great at setting excercies to keep you busy at home even if you don't own your own drum kit.

    • Do you cater for formal drum exams?

      For those looking for more formal learning we have teamed up with Trinity College London to offer their Rock and Pop exams.


      Trinity’s Rock and Pop music exams are all about performance and whether you’re just learning as a hobby or you're looking to become a music maestro, they are a great way of achieving your music grades whilst playing music you know and love.


      They can help you learn essential skills in your chosen instrument and are a great way of learning for those who really want to get stuck in. They also count towards UCAS points for A-Level and college students looking to head to university.

    • When are your business hours?

      The time of your lesson will depend on both yours and your teacher's availability. We recommend booking a regular slot if possible.


      Our teachers are often flexible in their availability right up to 8pm at night.


      Our reception is open Tuesday to Saturday 11am to 3pm so please do feel free to call in. Outside of these times please email us all leave a message.
