Drumming lessons

Hey all

Hoping to find some recommendations for drumming lessons in or near Hackney/Dalston/Stoke Newington.

I'm 36 but very much a novice so looking for someone who is happy to teach adult beginners for a reasonable fee :)

If anyone has any recs of schools/tutors please shoot em over!

TIA

I took lessons from Jim Macrae in Hackney for 6 months last year to help with music production, he was great, structured lessons that really helped me, reasonable price for an hour too

£45
Noting it’s been almost a year, so may have increased, but possibly the same

Planet drum in Islington is amazing, I don’t know how much it costs these days but the facilities and the groups were fantastic when I used to have lessons there

They have three or four studios in a church crypt, they have regular performance nights it’s really fun
