Col's teaching completely transformed how I approach timing and technique. After just a few months, I went from struggling with basics to playing full songs confidently.

I came back to drums after 15 years away. Col's patience and structured approach got me playing jazz again, and I actually understand the theory now.

The sensory-friendly studio made all the difference for me. Col understands what I need and adjusts every lesson. I feel supported, not rushed.
