    Review of Drummers Crash (Boom, Bang) Course, February 03, 2009

    All my life I had this unrealized desire to learn to play the drums. A friend invited me to join the Drummer Crash Course at Donn Bennett Drum Studio, for total beginners. I'm 52 and I admit I was really nervous. But am I glad I did!

    Even at the end of the first lesson, all of us (total newbies to the drums) were keeping the beat with classic drum patterns! There were 3 of us older gals who took the course, 2 young kids, 1 high school guy and 1 adult guy.

    After 4 lessons (which I totally looked forward to every week) and very little practice in between, I couldn't believe that we could ALL play to real songs, and that we were all totally synchronized. We learned some cool fills and crashes and gained alot of confidence.

    Hats off to Donn and Scott, who were outstanding drum teachers. They tag-teamed our class, and they were patient, encouraging, FUN, totally knowledgeable, open to questions, focused on our individual learning. This class was a blast.

    I am so glad that Donn offered this class. It's an awesome value for a low price, and now when I watch rock bands perform, I keep the beat with the drummer!

    Review of Drummers Crash (Boom, Bang) Course, January 27, 2009

    Donn Bennett came highly recommended from a UW music professor when I was doing research on finding a good drum teacher. My 12 year old son and his best friend LOVE this class! Not only are the instructors very knowledgeable and have lots of experience playing in different bands, but they pass their enthusiasm onto the students in their class. On top of that, it is priced very well. In 4 lessons, they learn the whole set of drums - just enough time to learn the basics and then figure out whether you want to commit to private lessons or not. My son has a new found passion other than video games - a definite plus in today's world of teens!
