About Adrian
Hi, I'm Adrian.
I am an experienced and dedicated bagpipes instructor with over five years of teaching and performance experience. I currently serve as Pipe Major of a Grade 3 band in Australia and have been trained by world-renowned Grade 1 professional bagpipe players. I have also performed as a solo piper at numerous public and formal events, giving me strong insight into both competitive and performance-based playing.
My teaching style is structured, supportive, and focused on long-term improvement. I place strong emphasis on correct technique, musicality, and solid fundamentals, ensuring that every student develops the skills needed to progress confidently. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced player aiming to refine your performance, you can expect professional, well-organized lessons in a positive and encouraging learning environment.
