Über mich
Hi!

My name is Machiel. I am from the Netherlands and I live in Madrid. I’ve been teaching drums for 35 years. Drumming started as a hobby, but after my first gig I began to think about a drumming career. My drumteacher at the time pointed me at Musicians Institute in Hollywood CA and this is where I ended up studying with the greats. When I came back to the Netherlands, people were approaching me to show them what I had learned in the US.
This is how my teaching activities took off and I discovered I like passing my knowledge to others. In the meantime I have been busy playing with different bands all over The Netherlands, Europe and other continents. Now, 35 years later, I am still teaching with great enthusiasm and active playing live on stage.

I graduated with honors in 1989 at Musicians Institute in Hollywood California. I teached hundreds of students through the years and wrote two drum instruction books that I use as a guide during my lessons. The books cover a wide range of drumming fundamentals, styles and playing techniques that will help the student to improve his or her skills.

Every student is unique, deserves attention and will benefit from a one on one teacher/student situation. I had the pleasure of working with many and some of them even made it to a professional level.

Kevin
Experienced Drum Tutor and Instructor

I was born in Vancouver, grew up in Germany and later moved to London. I started playing the drums at the age of 9, and after my first band experiences, I was recruited by various artists to play shows throughout Germany. I study drums at the British and Irish Modern Music Institute and work as a session drummer for touring and recording artists internationally.

My online lessons are designed to teach you a specific skillset, step by step with guidance and accountability, classically structured for beginners and advanced players. Whether you want to improve your speed, fills, grooves, independence or technique, my live sessions are a great place to start.

​Step by step you will receive a wide-ranging program that introduces you to various styles and also teaches you theoretical approaches to playing the drums. Taking a combined approach of applied sheet music and programming drumlines, you will be able to play and meet your own standards or those of your band - whether it’s for practising, for live gigs or for the studio.

Playing the drums is pure action and loads of fun. You’re the one who gets to hold the steering wheel in a band. Rock, Metal, Punk, Funk, Soul, Jazz, Latin - it doesn’t matter. After all, the drums can handle any style and I’ll show you how it’s done. You will be excited, inspired and engaged with music.
Lessons for drummers with little to no experience.

Keys:
- Coordination
- Rudiments and technique
- Reading
- Hand and foot speed
- Reading
- Fills
- Grooves
- Independence
- Performance

So please, get in touch.
