About Us

OUR VISION

To educate student’s in the art of drumming by providing high quality drum tuition, not limited by genre or musical style.

WHAT WE DO

AJW Drum Academy was founded by Andrew Warren with a passion to share his love for drumming and music.

The vision behind AJW Drum Academy was to set up a studio that gave Andrew the option to employ current and previous students of age who had the passion and drive to follow in his footsteps.  Andrew personally mentors, oversees all tutors and has them implement his proven and successful syllabus.

At AJW Drum Academy we recognise that no student is the same and with this in mind we ensure each student is taught the syllabus at a rate suitable to them.

The syllabus at AJW Drum Academy has been developed and implemented over the past 12 years.  Each year Andrew reviews the syllabus, shaping and refining the model to ensure the lessons are providing cutting edge material.

DIRECTOR & PRINCIPAL TUTOR

Andrew Warren is AJW Drum Academy’s Founder, Director and Principal Tutor.  With over 22 years of playing and 12 years of teaching experience, Andrew has the vision to grow the Northern Beaches based Academy to new levels.

With the motivation, passion and drive to succeed, Andrew still personally teaches over 60 students each week whilst continuing to build the Academy for more tutors to come on board and work under his syllabus.
