Drum Lessons and Piano Lessons | John Suntken

I'm an adult student and I've been taking lessons with John for several months now. He's an easy going, flexible, thoughtful teacher. Have learned a lot and had lots of fun!

John is an amazing drummer and musician, and a really kind and patient teacher. Would definitely recommend him highly to anyone looking to learn!

My son has been taking lessons with John for almost three years. He is an amazing teacher- kind and interesting, patient and encouraging. It’s been a great experience all around.

John was super professional and extremely patient with me during my first-ever drum lesson. He made me feel at ease right away (I was definitely a bit nervous not knowing what to expect!), and he is incredibly knowledgeable about technique. I am excited for my next session!

I love taking lessons with John. I'm definitely a weird case for any instructor - I've been playing for 15 years, but I never worked with any teachers on building out my fundamentals correctly. John pinpointed my ability and exactly where I needed to improve. He didn't need a ramp up period - in only one lesson we hit the ground running.

After just a few months of lessons, I've improved enormously and it feels like there's more potential on the horizon. The exercises he gives me are spot on and for the first time I'm really enjoying practicing. Taking lessons with John is the real deal - he's truly transmitting what it means to play and I can see him easily transitioning between players of any ability with patience. I admire him as a musician, and he's also just an awesome guy. Would recommend to anyone.
