Hi, I’m Giuliano — founder of DrumBetter
I help beginner and stuck intermediate drummers practice with more clarity, better timing, and more control, so they can stop guessing and start playing songs with confidence.
A clearer way to practise drums
After more than 30 years behind the drums — studying with teachers such as Demetrius Locks, graduating from BIMM London, attending clinics with world-class drummers like Aaron Spears, Matt Halpern, Steve Jordan, Benny Greb and others, performing live, and teaching drums full-time in London for over 15 years — I created DrumBetter to help drummers practise with more direction.
Most beginner and stuck intermediate drummers don’t need more random exercises.
They need a clearer way to practise.
They struggle because they are trying to improve with disconnected YouTube lessons, random exercises, and no clear way to know what to fix first.
DrumBetter is built to change that.
Through free YouTube lessons, practical resources, focused courses, and selected 1-to-1 coaching, my goal is to help you slow things down, understand what is really going wrong, and build the timing, control, and confidence you need to play real grooves, fills, and songs.

Student results and kind words
Real Students. Real Progress.
Over the years, I’ve helped real drum students build confidence, improve their timing, and achieve strong results in official UK graded drum exams — where groove, control, reading, timing, and song performance are tested seriously.
These results are not about shortcuts. They come from clear practice, patience, consistency, and knowing what to fix next. Here are a few real results from students I’ve helped.
