"Chris has been an amazing teacher, my son has been taking lessons since 2021. He took my awkward teenager and gave him a passion. I’ve watched my son’s self esteem soar and personality develop because of his weekly interactions with Chris. He is able to keep my son excited and engaged. He also keeps me as a parent well informed and aware of his progress. Highly recommend Chris to anyone!!"

"My son and I have loved talking lessons from Chris! He is a monster on the drums! He knows how to push you to improve and learn new things at your skill level. He is a very patient and fun teacher!! Highly recommend chris for all levels of drummers."

"My drum lesson journey began as a beginner one year ago under the direction of Chris at the Ogden Drum Studio. I attribute my enormous progress, continual motivation, and diligent pursuit in learning the drums to Chris. My experience has been most enjoyable. There are teachers and then there are “TEACHERS”. Chris falls under the latter and is a phenomenal "TEACHER”. Chris’s expertise and knowledge in both drumming and teaching provides a highly individualized and personal approach that caters to the needs of his student. He uses a superior systematic and analytical approach that builds upon itself. He is very organized with his lesson plans knowing exactly what his student needs at the right moment in order for them to move ahead. He often will go above and beyond his call to provide additional material and information to help his students. This includes making himself available after each lesson for any additional questions, help or guidance that might be needed. Chris knows how to break down drumming technique for his students. He uses a close watchful eye on his student’s technique always ready to give an incremental detailed learning lesson in this area. This helps to ensure that the student’s stroke and rhythm techniques are developing correctly and properly from the start. Chris’s teaching approach is highly efficient, organized and methodical but at the same time it still offers creativity and flexibility that always inspires the student with motivation and enjoyment. Chris is a top notch drumming instructor. He is a “Master” at his trade. His teaching ability is perfect for the all “serious” students wanting to learn and enjoy the drums. I highly recommend him."

"Fantastic drum studio! Chris is an awesome teacher, from beginning drummers up to very advanced students. He has a full suite of gear to teach, demonstrate techniques, isolate specific areas needing improvement. I like the curriculum and variety of styles that the students get exposed to. Also, the ability to do remote lessons has come in handy a couple times in cases of bad weather. Chris has worked with my son for a couple years now and the amount of progress made is incredible. This is the best drum studio in the Ogden area - we couldn't even begin to consider going anywhere else but here!"

"Chris is everything we could ask for in a drum teacher. He is knowledgeable, kind, honest, well-prepared, and my son's favorite thing - his English accent! haha He is easy to get in touch with and always willing to lend advice or help as needed. He's flexible when things come up and is able to provide online lessons if needed. We have been VERY happy with our time at Ogden Drum Studio!"
