So here is a reminder that the deposit is enough to secure your place at TDOC26! The remaining fee can be paid separately.

If your drumming is needing a boost, it would be best to see you

The 2026 is coming up in October! As with all TDOC's, the tutor line up is a one-off that will never be repeated, so every camp is truly a once in a lifetime weekend. This year we have three completely different tutors coming, each with their own experiences, concepts and approaches.

CLAUS HESSLER - Globally renowned educator & musician

NAOMI FORBES - Pop / Session Drummer
(Paloma Faith, Leigh-Anne of Little Mix, Cat Burns)

TIM GOODYER - Top WestEnd Theatre Drummer
(Hamilton, Hercules, Book of Mormon, Frozen, Shrek The Musical)

Plus... our INDUSTRY Q&A GUEST this year will be the legendary COLIN WOOLWAY (Suzi Quatro, DrumSense, Clinician)

Alongside all the education time, we will be enjoying lots of socialising over food and coffee. Plus the drum camp raffle with lots of goodies to be won. Every camper also receives their own camp goody bag, handbook and camp pass as a souvenir.

It is really a weekend not to be missed! All the information can be found on the website: www.thedrummersodysseycamp.com
