This course was set up for drummers and drum teachers to help them improve their skills and stay at the top of their game. The week is a highly motivational and fun course designed for more advanced players; students spend a week in the company of drumming legends.

“This year’s "Ultimate Drum Experience" was one of the most informative and exhilarating musical events I've been to in years.  I look forward to an even greater event in 2010”.
- Vic Firth

"The Ultimate Drum Experience 2009 was a well organized and inspiring event that was one of the highlights of my year. I found the drummers that attended the week-long event were highly motivated and willing to work hard at developing their drumming abilities, which made them a pleasure to teach. I enjoyed working with all of the members of the excellent teaching staff and the student body was quite high-level.

Mike Dolbear is to be commended on this stellar "drum-camp.""

In other industries, people have the opportunity to attend various courses to learn and improve their skills to help them keep up to date with today's fast moving society. As a teacher/drummer myself, I found nothing out there at this level for drummers.

Ultimate drum experience was set up with the aim to attract a high standard of students to learn in small groups from some of the best drummers in their genre. The course is held in a luxurious venue with like minded classmates and students learn not only about drums but other important issues in today's ever changing music industry.
