OUTSIDE THE DOOR.MAKE MISTAKES.
DISCOVER YOUR VOICE.
You donβt need to be a professional to take your drumming seriously. You need curiosity, dedication and a willingness to try.
Thatβs what we mean by a professional school for amateurs. We also work with professional drummers who want to develop their voice, vocabulary and musicality.
We teach a method, not just an exercise: pay attention, embrace mistakes and explore a different way when the familiar one stops taking you somewhere new. The aim is to help you find your own way.
Passion, patience and attention to detail matter beyond the drums, too. If youβre going to do something, you might as well give it your best.

A moving 360Β° view follows the route past the BDE banner and blue walls into a courtyard with seating. Inside, it passes a lounge with wall art and an upright piano, a drinks area and a computer workstation, then rooms with colourful lighting and a drum kit. The tour ends outside by the BDE drum logo.
