Whether you're just starting out or an advanced player looking to refine your technique, I offer personalized drum lessons tailored to meet your individual needs and musical goals.
I believe in a student-centred approach where every lesson is designed to match your unique learning style. I strive to create a fun, engaging, and supportive environment where students feel motivated to explore their musical potential. My goal is to help you not only improve your drumming skills but also boost your confidence and creativity, ensuring you're well-prepared for both live performances and studio recordings.
In addition to teaching, I bring real-world experience from my time gigging and freelancing with bands and artists, performing at prestigious venues across Vancouver and the Islands. I’ve worked with industry professionals in sound and stage production, and I use that knowledge to offer students an authentic understanding of stage presence and performance techniques.
I also have extensive studio experience at renowned studios like Hipposonic Studio, Armoury Studios, Little Red Sounds, and SAE Institute, where I’ve collaborated with artists and honed my skills in recording and production. This experience allows me to provide valuable insights into the technical aspects of drumming, like optimizing sound and adapting playing for studio sessions.
Whether you're looking to learn your favourite songs, prepare for a performance or recital, or explore drumming for the first time, I’m committed to making your learning journey both rewarding and enjoyable. My mission is to help students reach their full musical potential in an environment where they feel supported, inspired, and confident. Let’s work together to take your drumming to the next level!

My Approach as a Drum Instructor
As a session drummer with over 5 years of teaching and performing experience, I believe each student has their own unique learning style. My teaching methodology is personalized for every individual, whether you're a complete beginner or an advanced drummer. I focus on creating a fun and engaging learning environment, where students are encouraged to experiment and discover their own musical voice.
What a Typical Lesson Looks Like
We’ll start with the fundamentals: grip, posture, and hand/foot coordination, followed by rhythm exercises and basic music theory. As students progress, I introduce more advanced concepts like sight-reading, improvisation, and performance preparation. For advanced students, we refine technique, explore new styles, and delve into rudiments, orchestration around the kit, storytelling, phrasing, and preparing for live performances or recitals.
What Sets Me Apart
My musical expertise spans rock, jazz, Bollywood, metal, and beyond. I incorporate a variety of styles and techniques into lessons, ensuring students not only master their instrument but also develop creativity and musicality for a more holistic approach to drumming. Whether you're learning to play your favourite songs, exploring this incredible instrument for the first time, or preparing for a stage performance, my goal is to instill confidence and motivation in every student.
Who the Lessons Are For
I teach students of all ages and skill levels, from 4-year-olds just starting to drum to adults seeking to expand their musical abilities. My lessons are perfect for anyone looking to improve their technique, performance, or simply have a fun and engaging experience learning drums!
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to real lessons experienced by the students of Rishabh.
Perfect! I was quite nervous going into my very first drum lesson, but Rishabh made me feel comfortable right away. I felt an instant connection with him as a tutor, he was very approachable, patient, and encouraging throughout the session. He not only explained all the basics, like the different parts of the drum, but also broke down the concepts in a way that was clear and easy to follow.
What stood out to me was how he explained things using real-life examples, which made learning so much easier and more relatable. He also used diagrams to explain theory, so I could follow along visually as well. While teaching me to play, he had a great eye for detail, immediately noticing where I was going wrong and guiding me to correct it.
Rishabh answered all my questions thoughtfully and encouraged me to ask more doubts and follow-up questions, which made the whole learning process feel interactive and supportive. He also emphasized the importance of maintaining good form instead of rushing into playing beats, which I found very valuable as a beginner.
Overall, it was a really fun, informative, and motivating first lesson. Rishabh is a wonderful teacher, and I would definitely love to continue learning from him.See more reviews

My son has really enjoyed his drum lessons with Rishabh. He does a great job of keeping the sessions fun, interesting, and engaging, which has helped keep my son motivated and excited to learn. We've seen great progress, and he always looks forward to his lessons. Highly recommended!
Rishabh has been my teacher for a few months. In this period of time, he has shown a friendliness that has helped me to come out of my shell, be more outgoing, and less self conscious when playing drums in an educational environment. As someone who is starting to learn an instrument as an adult, I find that the process can be intimidating, but I feel comfortable enough to make mistakes and ask questions, which makes everything a bit easier. Lessons with Rishabh go by quickly, and he is flexible enough to adjust his lessons based on individual wishes.
Rishabh is an amazing music teacher who teaches students in a really comfortable way without them feeling stressed or pressured. He has taught me how to play the drums and each step of the way has always felt kind and reassuring. Every lesson always feels fun while you’re actually learning, opposed to feeling strict and demanding.
Rishabh is such an inspiring teacher, always patient and positive. Made my daughter feel confident and excited to keep learning. Highly recommend as a professional, talented and very supportive teacher!!
I think Rishabh Gulati is a great, trustworthy drum teacher, I've been Rishabh student for a while, and for the first 2 months, I've already learned many great things about playing the drums. Personally, for me, he turns my boring lessons into exciting lessons. Rishabh is very careful with teaching he doesn't rush nor move on quickly. He knows when you're ready for a new step. Rishabh mainly focuses on building a relationship with his students, ensuring student's comfort with playing the drums and he really cares about his student's growth in their drum journey from what he'd shared, making sure I and they improve. And for his behavior, he's really friendly, nice, caring, and respectful based on my experiences with Rishabh. Overall, he's a good drum teacher for starters. For surely, at the end of the day, this is my own opinion, and one very last thing is that he's also a very funny guy.
Before I started drum lessons with rishabh I learnt by myself on YouTube with videos, but ever since I've started with him he's very willing to go out of his way to go in depth about what you are doing and how to make it better especially with my Rudiments and timing. And to me he's more than my drum teacher hes just a really nice and talkative guy sometimes and there is never a dull conversation with him whether if it's about drums or not, I see him as more of a friend than a drum teacher. If you're interested for a teacher that is fun and willing to talk then rishabh is definitely the right choice
Rishabh does a great job of engaging and showing interest and excitement in drum lessons, you can tell he really loves what he does and has a passion for teaching drums. He also has helped me push myself and get much better by covering some more abstract concepts.
