What Students Are Saying
I've been doing the DrumMantra Online course for a couple of months now. It's the drum school I always wanted to do but was too busy touring and making a living playing drums. Rich Stitzel is the real thing β great drummer, teacher, and all-around swell human. In just a couple of months my reading, technique, and independent coordination have improved significantly.
Bryan H.
Drummer β REO Speedwagon Β· Cher Β· Graham Nash Β· Wang Chung Β· Spencer Davis Group
I'm realizing my worth as a musician. I got a lot of praise for my skills as a drummer β but more importantly, I now know I'm ready to play with higher-level musicians. Knowing that feels fantastic.
Nickolas W.
DrumMantra Student
I'm inspired, not overwhelmed. DrumMantra points out my weaknesses so they can be addressed. I'm already improving in just one week. Work the system, because the system works.
Robert T.
DrumMantra Student
After 6 months, there is no doubt I am a different drummer. It was actually magic β I thought I had felt the pocket before. I was wrong.
Gary B.
DrumMantra Student
I started to trust my playing. There was some form of deep emotional catharsis. I was struggling to identify what's holding me back β your work is illuminating those weak points and helping me improve very fast.
Greg F.
DrumMantra Student
Everyone said my drumming has significantly improved! THANK YOU TO DRUM MANTRA, Rich Stitzel, and all my classmates!
Raymond D.

I've received more formal training in Rich's lessons in the past week than I've received in 30 years. I'm already improving in just one week, and I know the next 51 weeks are going to be amazing.

When You Say Yes
I've received more formal training in Rich's lessons in the past week than in 30 years. It points out my weaknesses so they can be addressed. It's as if the drum gods reached down and said 'we've been watching you long enough β let us show you something.'
Andre E.
DrumMantra Student
My brain is already starting to see things from a whole new perspective. I can get through an exercise and not be uptight and a nervous wreck. Relaxation coming slowly β and that's the real win.
Chris L.
DrumMantra Student
Rich has created educational material to develop the essential skills every drummer needs to grow and excel, regardless of their background β presented with musical examples and his superb playing.
Brad S.

While I've been playing for a long time, I didn't have a structured approach for improvement. This has been an amazing program for me. Highly recommended.
Randy K.
DrumMantra Student
I was super impressed with myself that I was able to read and play Rush's Tom Sawyer in real time. I've learned and upped my game so much already.
Michael H.

Your method combined with your focus on mindset and muscle usage is great. Rich is the real thing. I am really enjoying the discussions in our class!

"Winning is the light switch coming on when you realize that exercise you've been struggling with for a month was never that hard.
It was just a skill you hadn't learned yet."

It's been the best month of practice I've had in my life. My strokes are so much more confident, precise, and clean. I really can't wait to see where this takes me in a year.

Your classes taught me to sight-read and helped me with subdivisions. I could never have learned this song in one week without you. Ready to impress.
