What My Students Say

Matt – Drummer For Fawkes

I started working with Dave just under a year ago and couldn’t be happier with my progress.

Although I had a couple of drum teachers back in high school, they mainly focussed on getting me through my music exams, and my technique and theory suffered as a result.

Now I have no strain in my wrists after drumming and I can confidently read and write drum charts. Honing in on the fundamentals has not only improved my technique but also drastically improved my creativity in my band as well.

Dave truly cares about drumming as an art form and this comes across in his teaching. I would recommend him to any seasoned drummer looking to take their drumming to that next level.

Angela, Edinburgh

“Dave is a fantastic teacher. My teenage daughter thoroughly enjoys his sessions. He’s patient and makes it fun and interesting. I could see a noticeable improvement in her drumming in a short time.”

Sam Waller, Owner – Stirling Drum School

Dave’s passion for drums and his ability to break down complex ideas into simple nuggets of information had a great impact on those who attended his masterclass at the end of 2018.
The masterclass was well thought out and delivered like a top pro, inspiring a group of students from a wide variety of playing experience with lots of ideas and a clear breakdown on how to achieve goals, short and long term.
Dave was very generous with his time and would be welcomed back with open arms!

Robbie Duncan – Pirate Studios UK

“Dave is a regular fixture on our Edinburgh drumming tutor roster, he’s a favourite with students wishing to hone their skills or pick up the sticks for the very first time. Dave skillfully adapts his sessions to suit your needs while pulling from his vast bank of knowledge and experience to encourage you to take on the next challenge with confidence.

 

He’s a 100% sure thing for drumming tuition!”

Mitch X

Dave is not just a amazing and professional drummer. He Also a really nice drumming and music educator. I have learned and improved so much since starting the courses.

Amy Brewer

Dave is a fantastic teacher and mentor: inspiring patience, dedication and discipline to create better drummers out of his students. I’ve been learning with him for 2+ years now. Highly recommended.

I'm Passionate About Teaching

For over 10 years I’ve been a professional drum teacher in Edinburgh. Teaching drum lessons to students of all ages and abilities is a true joy and I love seeing them achieve their full potential, on and off the drums.

My lessons are a little different than other drum lessons but in a good way. We focus on building practice routines and systems that allow students to unlock the drums themselves and empower them to become not only good drummers but great musicians.

As a beginner, you will learn how to make the best possible start on the drums. From technique, to playing famous grooves you will gain the confidence and skills to learn your favourite songs and foster good drumming habits.

For intermediate and advanced drummers I will start to expand your vocabulary and help you really maximise your practice time with my unique practice systems and concepts. This will you to become a better musician and take your drumming to the next level.

For professional or aspiring professional drummers, we focus on the necessary skills to make amazing music. We dive deep into time and feel as well as growing your drumming career.

On top of my one to one drum lessons in Edinburgh I also run a successful YouTube channel and my online lesson school – www.davemajormusic.com. With over 1 million views and students all over the world, this has allowed me to expand my teaching to all corners of the globe.
