About Flo

I am a professional drummer with a wealth of experience playing, from touring internationally to studying at Leeds College of Music. My teaching is flexible and focused on you as an individual, creating a friendly environment to learn the genres that you’re interested in. I hold a First Class Honours BA (Hons) in Popular Music Performance, with a focus on pop drumming. My specialism lies in pop and rock drums, and I can teach all styles up to an intermediate level (and pop/rock well beyond!).

My goal is to get more people, and more diversity, into drumming. As a transgender musician, I am keenly aware of how intimidating it can be to step into this world. My lessons are focused around each student’s individual needs, with a mind to increasing confidence and getting more people into this wonderful art form!

I have experience teaching a variety of subjects and age ranges, from English to drums, group lessons to individual tuition, and 5-year-olds to adults, so I understand that everyone learns differently and has different interests and preferences. Each lesson is tailored to your interests, whilst ensuring you learn (or refresh) the basics you need to play any music. I also hold a full enhanced DBS certificate.

My pronouns are they/them/theirs.

About the lesson

My approach is to make learning drums accessible to anyone who has the itch. We all learn differently, and we all bring our own experiences to the drums; it is my role to enable this the best I can!

I understand that drumming can be particularly intimidating to take up, especially as a beginner. My focus is on teaching in a no-pressure, friendly environment to ensure that you learn the best you can. After all, if it's not fun, it's not going to stick!

I offer online lessons via Skype. In order to get the most out of online lessons, it is recommended that students have access to the following:

Computer (laptop or desktop) with a webcam
Headphones (optional but recommended)
A second device (such as a smartphone or tablet) for students to stream songs & use an online metronome during the Skype call (optional but recommended)

Although best-suited for students with a drum kit (electric or acoustic), lessons on a practice pad are still hugely beneficial for improving technique, learning rudiments and songs, and improving your playing without access to a drum kit.

In order to minimise the risk of COVID-19 transmission, in-person lessons take place every two weeks.

In-person lessons are 50 minutes long, to allow for cleaning between students. Students are required to bring their own drum sticks (available to purchase in-lesson for £10), and are encouraged to bring a pair of over-ear headphones if possible. Unless exempt for medical reasons, students are required to wear a face mask.

There is always plenty of hand sanitiser available in the lesson, and teaching takes place at a two-metre distance. If you have any concerns about my teaching practices around COVID-19, please do get in touch to discuss them further.
