Ben has been an absolutely fantastic teacher! He is calm, skilled and a very talented drummer (and musician).
In just a few lessons he dramatically improved my technique, exposed me to intricate details of drumming I didn't appreciate before, taught me just the right amounts of music theory, fixed my posture and much much more.I went from barely being able to sustain a simple beat and keep time to jamming along, improvising and just feeling a whole lot better around the kit.
If you want a balanced and sustainable way to improve your drumming - I can't recommend it enough.

Oh...and the studio is awesome! – Daniel Stankevich

Highly recommend Play Drums Melbourne! My son has been learning with Ben and previously Joachim for the last two years and it's been an amazing experience for him. Ben offers one-on-one lessons with the very best equipment; he is so patient and always supportive, my son just loves going to his lessons. Ben has been great with certain songs request that my son has wanted to learn how to play and encouraging him to step out of his comfort zone by performing at talent shows and online competitions. We feel extremely lucky for our son to have this activity and enjoyment in his life and if you're keen to ever learn the drums, this is the place for you. – Shae Hecimovic

Ben has been an absolute star! He has really helped motivate my son and has worked with me to find out what teaching style works best with my son's personality. – Ian Smith
