About Luka
I've toured, played and supported numerous successful international acts around Australia and Tasmania, with various bands of diverse genres and for a few years short of a decade. I have now focused my work and sights on educating the young drummers, beginners and intermediates to further hone my proficiency and approach in the instructing world. My sincere wish is to share my skills and refined experiences in an effort to set a firm foundation for the future by building healthy + efficient habits for all styles and performances. My people and interpersonal skills from industry experience and also a strong and extensive background in customer service are next to none. Working with, and alongside people, almost rivals my passion for music. It is a pleasure and by no means work for me. Help me fulfill my dream by fulfilling yours first! Thank you for reading.

For beginners/intermediate levels of all ages. The lessons can be practical, theoretical, or a creative mix of both while we work on finding the best approach together. We can learn all tiers of covers from whatever genre you like to perhaps perform for a school talent quest, or even show off to the family at the next gathering; improv over video game music or movie scores (My Specialty!) even have excursions to recording/rehearsal studios for group lessons/jam sessions and record our sessions for later reflection and analysis. Everything will be determined and streamlined based on each individual as we all have nuanced approaches to learning and self-expression.

Perfect! Luka is a great communicator, doesn't forget complex scheduling information, even after a lot of time passes, and follows through in all respects. He is a patient and knowledgeable tutor who is incredibly supportive. Thanks so much for the excellent lessons for my 13 and 14 year old boys!
Perfect! Just had my first lesson with Luka and I can't speak more highly of a teacher. I'm a visual learner and he has a gift of breaking things down in an easy format to understand. He has a very casual and polite demeanor and is also a very talented musician. Looking forward to my new drumming journey with him. 5 stars!
Perfect! Luka is adaptable, I have a fear of sheet music (thanks childhood music teacher) but Luka understand that I am a listen, look and do kind of person, who’s brain occasionally runs off with the squirrels! I started drumming this year at the age of 44 and have so much fun with my lessons, and with learning a song we have discovered a dot system that works! Luka finds pure joy in what he does and that my friends makes an awesome teacher!
Perfect! Luka is a phenomenal coach who has helped me come leaps and bounds as a drummer. As a metal drummer slowly breaking through to some more advanced territory he’s taught me the importance of consistent practice and given me structure within that in order to slowly progress and reach my goals as well as subjects such as recording improv amongst others and he isn’t limited to just one genre. I don’t see myself stopping coaching from him anytime soon highly recommend him
Perfect! I was in a pinch when first contacting Luka. Had my first upcoming gig, feeling panicked and didn't know how to tackle the material. So I jumped on here in search for some direction and advice.
Once I had explained my situation to Luka, he dilligently mapped out what I ought to tackle first and how to do it.
Now I had this structure and game plan to my practise, the cloud of anxiety was lifted and it was pedal to metal (figurative and literally).
I had been playing drums casually on and off for several years. This was the first time I had knuckled down and dialled in the practise. The gains were rolling in with Luka's guidance - one moment I couldn't perform a song or sustain a tempo, then suddenly I could.
Since the gig I've continued lessons, further refining the style I want to play. Exploring the bottomless pit of drumming potentional with Luka's guidance and tips.
Highly recommend!Perfect! Luka is an exceptional teacher, extremely knowledgeable, easy to get along with. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Perfect! Excellent teacher. Super positive and helpful!
Plus, he's always ready to help and adapts the classes to my needs or wants.
I always come out of the classes feeling good!Perfect! So far Luka has been a great Tutor. I can already tell after the first lesson that Luka is attentive to my needs and is wanting to guide me to the goals I have with my Drumming. Great communication and really involved in teaching skills. I felt that Luka has a great sense for what he does and enjoys teaching. Highly recommend!
Perfect! Great teacher. Highly recommend. Patient, encouraging and a great sense of humour

After rediscovering my passion for music, drums & percussion I wanted to expand my repertoire and mindset. With only a few lessons under my belt for an extra edge Luka has gifted me with a wealth of knowledge that I still carry with me today. Not only has he taught me the necessary building blocks for drumming and great tips for practicing in my own time; I think the greatest tool Luka has is his mindset and philosophy which goes far beyond just practicing.
This has helped me create a healthy and forward thinking attitude when it comes to playing, practicing and a general healthy relationship with my instrument. Which is something I will always value moving forward with my music career.
I will definitely return to Luka for more lessons in the future!Luka is a very driven individual who embraces opportunity and development and conducts himself in a respectable manner. He works extremely hard and shows great initiative, passion and dedication in his craft.
Lula has a wonderful rapport with people of all ages. He is gifted with the ability to connect with people, and his ways of inspiring and encouraging them is truly admirable.
Luka always brings a positive attitude and atmosphere, sense of humour, and supportive nature wherever he goes. He utilises innovative instructional methods and strategies of teaching to effectively communicate and meet the needs of his pupil.
I highly recommend Luka without reservation. I am more than confident that Luka can offer a great learning experience, and share a great deal of knowledge to effectively build and develop your percussion skills.A proven and trusted individual I am proud to call my friend. over the course of knowing Luka, i have evolved tenfold, through learning the different ways he thinks and operates. I am constantly in a state of learning and evolving around this individual. He is so passionate and devoted to helping. A delight of a friend and mentor.
Having the pleasure of knowing and performing with Luka aka "The Lint Man" (because he's always in the pocket) for roughly 10 years, I would highly recommend him as a drum teacher. He is kind, patient, funny and very knowledgeable, all traits that I would consider make a great individual to learn from.
I've worked with Luka for the past couple of years now and he is probably the nicest person I've ever met. He is super positive and always makes work enjoyable when he is on. I could not think of a better person to be a teacher. He is calm, patient and always willing to go that extra mile to help people. I cannot recommend this gentleman enough.
Luka is a very good teacher. I played drums years ago and really enjoyed it unfortunately I had to stop. I recently started playing again I was very rusty, Luka understood this and it didn’t bother him he was very understanding and walked through the steps very slowly and precisely which allowed me to quickly get back into the habit of playing we quickly progressed through harder beats with him each time understanding that I hadn’t played these beats and helping me learn them.
Luka is an amazing teacher! I have known Luka for the past 20 years and he has helped me so much in my music career. He holds the key concepts of being a music teacher as he is a great communicator, has patience and gives great encouragement to keep striving in reaching your personal goals.
I recommend Luka as I have experienced first hand his dedication to his art and know he takes great pride in his work. If Luka has his name on it or if he is known for being your teacher he will put in 100%.
I highly recommend him. You can’t go wrong !Luka is a patient, passionate and amazing teacher and mentor. He loves music of all kinds and is a great person to learn from. He does his best to pass on his passion and love for music to the people he teaches.
I have known Luka for the best part of a decade.
He has always been extremely passionate and knowledgeable with not only music and drums, but also displaying an intelligence, with a deep understanding and insightful view of all areas of life.
He has always shown utmost kindness, compassion and respect. He is professional, reliable and always trustworthy in all aspects.
His drumming experience speaks for itself, and I would not hesitate in asking him to tutor my daughter in the art of drumming and percussion.
He would be a valuable asset to any drumming student.Luka is a fantastic friend who genuinely cares for people. He is a hard working individual with great attention to detail. His passion for music and desire to help others grow their musical talent is supported by his ability to breakdown and adapt content in an approachable way.
Luka has an amazing understanding of percussion and can accommodate any skill level with a friendly, caring demeanour and fantastic communication skills. As an added extra he can shed his experience of what it takes to be a professional musician, a truly invaluable knowledge base. I would recommend him as a mentor and teacher to any student of music.
I've known Luka for many years. His teaching is excellent, he is patient and knows his stuff. A bonus he is great with kids and my kids found him easy to talk to and learn from as well.
If you want a great tutor, go the Luka!After spending several years in a band with Luka, I can truly say he is very dedicated to his craft and is an excellent drummer. With his super friendly and easy going nature, he would be a great tutor looking to learn drums from any experience level.
Luka has vast and intensive experience with music but does not forget how it is for people learning. Luka is very patient and really understands the best way to leverage musical knowledge and techniques to music newbies.
If you want to learn and get better this is the man you should go to!I have had the pleasure of working and also jamming with Luca. Luca is the kind of Drummer to suggest a band learn a Meshuggah song for their first jam - He is an incredible musician. Drums are to Luca what a superman suit is to superman, or what a can of spinach is to Popeye.
Once he gets behind his instrument he radiates a relaxed mojo, competence and flow. Luca is a bright thinker and very present both personally and musically. Luca’s level of skill and communication makes him an ideal teacher to any age or skill level. I couldn’t recommend him enough.He has always been well mannered, reliable and very passionate about his love for music. He is patient and professional and you will enjoy his classes, his positive outlook and his commitment to passing his knowledge to you.
Super chill and passionate teacher, incredibly patient and explores any questions asked.
Luka is one of the most unique human beings to exist. His attitude and personality are fit for anyone of any age or background. Filled with integrity and compassion, he also demonstrates extreme levels of competency and meets high levels of standards and expectations as a teacher in a professional yet friendly manner. It would be an honour for you to call Luka your very own teacher.
As a 16 year old at the time, I was someone who thought I had no musical ability. Until Luka taught me a simple beat which gave me the confidence to excel and slowly become a more proficient drummer.
