We started this drum-school shortly after we moved to Japan in 2008.
Initially we were located in the northern part of Tokyo but moved our studio to Gohongi, Meguro-ku where we were untill 2023.We opened our new studio in Motosumiyoshi in April 2023.
We have a lot of experience from real world playing situations and we’ve given thousands of lessons throughout the years. We take the lessons seriously and want you to reach your goals.
