Testimonial: Jack - 'Ally is an amazing teacher and I thoroughly enjoy our lessons together. I feel like I enter a time machine when I sit behind the drum kit with him because time just vanishes. Not only has he got a highly in-depth knowledge of percussion and music, he is also very able at conveying it to me, which cannot be said for all teachers. Ally is very enthusiastic and is genuinely buzzing when I nail something; I find this very encouraging. Watching Ally demonstrate his playing on the kit also inspires me massively! Outside of lessons he is very attentive in responding to my queries, which again, really helps my progression as a musician.'

After having played for several years; I sought someone who could reinvigorate my love for the drums. Ally was the perfect person; his knowledge, skill and enthusiasm really took my playing to a new level. Cannot recommend enough, thanks Ally!
Ally is extremely patient, friendly and professional with his approach to teaching, working at a level appropriate for the student. This helped me feel really comfortable and enjoy learning, even though I had zero experience. By the end of even the first lesson I walked away feeling extremely rewarded and excited to continue with Ally.
I’ve been having lessons with Ally for the last year. I was a complete beginner. He has always been very consistent, patient and professional. Very easy to understand and get along with. I fully recommend him!
My drumming has come on so much thanks to Ally. After stepping away from the kit for a few years I thought it would take me a while to get into the swing of things but through Ally’s professional and inspiring teaching, before I knew it, I was back in the groove and feeling confident in my playing again Would recommend his teaching to anyone, what a player.
I have had several lessons with Ally now and his knowledge and approach to teaching is brilliant! I had never touched a drum kit in my life before I started lessons with him but he has been so patient and is great at simplifying things and making them approachable, and I have gone from strength to strength. I have nothing bad to say and I look forward to every lesson.
