professional instruction, live performance, and session drumming

Thanks for stopping by! Dan Walker is a young, energetic, professional drummer with extensive live and studio experience. He has shared the stage with many world-class acts and has spent time touring through both Canada and the United States. He has also had the privilege of working with some of the world's best recording engineers and producers through his 11-year career.

With several years of training through both schooling and private instruction, Dan is a skilled instructor in a wide range of drumming styles and genres. He focuses heavily on sticking patterns and rudimetary drum elements to first build a strong drumming foundation that can then be expanded to improve the overall skill and creativity of his students on a drum kit. Dan's primary objective is to create young drummers with a firm grasp on musicality through drumming, understanding the musical roles and responsibilities of a drummer, and being well-rounded in all senses of the instrument, no matter the age or experience level!

“Dan Walker is a very thorough and professional teacher. He is very educated about drums, and very skilled behind the kit. Dan makes sure that the student has a great learning experience, and most importantly, a great time.” - Graydon Driver, 15

"Dan brings a background of formal music training that offers students the opportunity to learn from a master. He has the patience that allows you to hone your skills without fear of embarrassment. I started to play drums at the age of 53 and can notice much improvement and progress with Dan's guidance and mentoring. I am can actually see the day that I will be able to jam with other musicians - this says a lot about Dan's ability to bring his students to a point where they can play confidently and enjoy the experience." - Don Waugh, 55
