Learning how to play the drums is incredibly fun, and luckily, so is teaching it!

For the last 4 years, Maxime has been such a positive mentor in our son’s life. In addition to teaching the foundations of musical rhythms, he has instilled discipline and a true love and commitment to the craft. Beginning on a drum pad and working up towards a full drum kit, Maxime has transformed our amateur son into a dedicated artist.

Maxime is a wonderful teacher, and friend. His approach to teaching is one that is balanced and fun. He has the ability to challenge you just enough to help you improve without feeling overwhelmed, all while providing the basic knowledge and understanding of proper technique and musicianship. He was a great teacher to me and I wish to take more lessons with him in the future. I would highly recommend him to others looking to improve their drumming skills, all while playing your favorite music and having a good time.

Started from ground zero with no background in music and have come a long way since. Taking on students of all levels regardless of age Maxime builds custom lesson plans based in theory and technique. Attentative to detail, encouraging, patient, and energetic he's been an incredible mentor. Went from simply listening to music to learning how to let it flow through me and it's truly been a gift.

Working with Maxime on drums has been the best experience, Its such a joy and thrill to learn from him because he makes it so much fun. I love to learn from him because he is also very professional and gives you his best all the time. I love the way he simplifies the different drumming techniques and styles so that anyone can learn from him, he makes you feel comfortable and he also challenges you to grow and become your best. He also gives homework and sends a review of the lesson so you can practice at home. I recommend Maxime as a drumming instructor because you can really learn and grow and develop the drumming skills you need with him for any level of experience.

Maxime is hands down the best teacher that I ever had. His approach to teaching is second to none. He is detailed in his explanations, patient with his approach and best of all he is an amazing drummer, endless amount of things this guy can teach you.

I really enjoyed taking classes with Maxime. He is very systematic, clear and makes a student feel very comfortable. He is great with all level students; beginners, intermediate and advanced. His lessons are fun, informative and helps you to appreciate the musical journey in all stages of learning.

Best drum teacher ever! I got a kit and started looking for people with skill to teach me and I quickly regretted not coming to Maxime first. I went through two different teachers/drummers and even though they had drumming skills, teaching is a whole other skillset that Maxime possesses. He also has two drum kits in his studio which allowed me to play along with him, a game changer for someone more visual like me. I went from not knowing how to play drums to playing a whole song in a month. This man is amazing don’t take my word for it, hire him and be amazed, I know i was!
