“My son loves taking drum lessons with Josh! Josh is a fantastic, skilled instructor with an innate ability to make learning percussion fundamentals fun while exposing students to many genres of music and incorporating all of the music my son enjoys playing. Because of Josh and his top-notch instruction, my son’s self-confidence has soared! Not only has Josh helped him grow in his percussion skills, but Josh has helped my son learn valuable life lessons about the value of perseverance, hard work, accepting challenges as opportunities to grow, and finding joy in attaining personal goals. My son enjoys playing in the drum line and jazz band at his school, but the highlight of his week is taking drum lessons with Josh.”

“Josh has been such an amazing drum instructor for my son, Nash, who is 10. He has been taking lessons with Josh for almost two years and has learned so much while still having fun and getting to play songs he enjoys. Josh is great at connecting with young students and encouraging them both in music and in life. His home studio has also been such a great change from the music school we previously attended. We’re so thankful we found him and plan to continue lessons for years to come!”

“Josh is a talented and patient drum instructor. His schedule is flexible, and his lessons are always engaging and fun. My 11-year-old son has been taking lessons with him for almost two years now and absolutely loves it. After starting with Josh, we initially bought an electronic drum kit for home, but recently upgraded to an acoustic Pearl set. Thanks to Josh, my son has discovered a true passion for music and is building a skill that will last him a lifetime.”

“Mr. Josh is definitely the go-to guy for drumming. He doesn't just teach incredible technique and rudiments, he also shares amazing insights from his own real-world experience as a drummer. As someone who started learning later in life, his guidance has been invaluable in helping me become a much better worship drummer. Highly recommended.”

“I met Joshua Kinser in Charleston, South Carolina and had the pleasure of performing many events with him.  Besides being a true professional in every sense, he was able to play a variety of styles of music.  He can be a textbook drummer as well as a seasoned freestyle player.  I would always learn something from him every time we performed.”

“As a professional musician in the Charleston, South Carolina area, I’ve had the opportunity to play countless gigs with Josh Kinser, and he is far and away one of the most professional and versatile drummers I’ve ever worked with. From jazz to R&B, blues, pop, rock, and country, Josh plays every style with exceptional musicality, authenticity, and impeccable feel, always keeping the groove firmly in the pocket. I can’t imagine a better drummer to work with or a better instructor for anyone looking to develop their skills and musicianship.”

“Playing as a bassist with Josh in several bands taught me how to hold down a groove and sync up a rhythm section. He was an amazing drummer back then and his passion for music was absolutely infectious. You have a chance to take drum lessons from a true master…don’t waste it.”
