Drumsense 5 Day Course

Colin Woolway is running his 5 day course 25th - 29th July in Croydon. Click here for event details.
Kristian started playing drums at the age of 10, after a year of learning the basics he knew that this was the instrument for him and continued to press forward in his quest for learning involving himself in the middle school orchestra, completing his grade one and winning the ‘Young Drummer of the Year’ award, all within 18 months.
