Our Syllabus
Created by founder John Vooght, our syllabus is built on 20+ years of teaching experience.
Designed to get real results, our set-by-step syllabus gives drummers a clear path from complete beginner to advanced.
Spanning Foundation to Level 8, it builds essential skills – like technique, theory, independence, timing and speed – while keeping things musical and inspiring through level-specific song studies and grade pieces.
Covering all styles, the syllabus is fully customisable to suit each student’s goals, helping every drummer progress with clarity and purpose.
“This is the syllabus I wish I had when I started.” – John Vooght
