This past weekend, five enthusiastic participants took part in a Beginner Drum Experience workshop, and what a fantastic session it was! Whether picking up sticks for the first time or rediscovering their rhythm, each participant left feeling confident, accomplished, and—most importantly—having had a great time making music together.
Our wonderful group consisted of Coleen, Eulie, Alison, Yvonne, and Sandra. Special mention goes to Eulie, who at 85 years old proved that it’s never too late to learn something new! Her enthusiasm and dedication were truly inspiring to everyone in the room.
What We Covered
The workshop focused on essential drumming skills, starting with basic rhythm exercises before moving into drum grooves and finally learning to play along with real songs. Everyone quickly got into the groove, playing along to classic tunes such as “We Will Rock You” by Queen and “Let It Be” by The Beatles—both perfect for beginners looking to develop confidence behind the kit.
One of the standout moments of the session was when Alison delivered a flawless rendition of “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” by Otis Redding—a truly impressive performance that had the whole group cheering!
A Fun and Supportive Learning Environment
The atmosphere was fun, relaxed, and encouraging. Drumming can feel intimidating at first, but this workshop was all about breaking things down into easy, manageable steps so that everyone could experience the joy of playing music. Whether working on basic beats or jamming together, every participant played a vital role in the session’s success.
