I've been playing the drums for years, and Michael quickly read the wrong styles and guided me in the right direction. It reads the motivation of the students, finds the shortcomings, and teaches the practice method that suits each student. Above all, he is a person who is pleased to share what he has and for his students to absorb it.

Seeing most of the Philippines' artists, celebrities & popular talented drummers study under him, I can't help but be in awe & envy. Not to mention, the continues positive testimonials of the majority. I kept thinking to myself, "I wonder when will I be able to study under him?" And now here I am. 10x better than I was yesterday because of this man right here. Because of his system & way of teaching. He corrected me from the way I hold the sticks, to how I should rimshot correctly, to how to properly step on the kick pedal - to get that intense volume that a lot of drummers lack, to the even-ness of my strokes, to understanding the smallest details of the songs & notations, etc. Every bad habit I had was corrected constructively & professionally.

The Program eliminated my bad habits, improved my good habits, and made me fall in love more with my instrument. I learned to breakdown song parts, read and write drum notes, and play whilst reading drum notes. I also learned so many exercises and workouts. I just matured more musically. I finally learned how to use metal brushes properly!”

Growing up singing, playing the piano, and guitar, drumming has been a completely new challenge for me. Learning of the program could not have come at a better time for me. I quickly reserved my spot as slots filled fast. From my first day I knew I was in a quality environment. My improvements have given me great determination to continue exploring the drums. In Michael Alba's Program, you build a strong platform of techniques and skills which prepare you for your drumming journey. I highly recommend this course to anyone with an interest in drumming.

Thank you Ms. Chelsea for teaching Jeremiah the drums, excellently and persistently. You are such an effective drum teacher. Thank you to Sir Mike as well, for your very effective drum program. In just a short amount of time, Jeremiah improved so much. From March 30, 2021 when he started beginner level to when he started advanced level, not only his drum skills developed, but also his confidence. That’s why I’m so grateful!* *translated in Filipino

After almost 8 years of drumming, a moment of realization is enough for me to take a step to eradicate wrong muscle memory. At first, I was hesitant to enroll due to zero knowledge in note reading and writing, but I enrolled anyway and reiterated to myself "You need to take your craft to the next level". And yes the program did not much require prior experiences or music literacy, I found that out after our first few sessions - at first it only requires time, effort, discipline, and willingness to learn how to understand everything in Module 1.

To teacher Chelsea, Without you, our son wouldn’t be as good as he is today. Thank you for your efforts and dedication and also for the time you have allotted to teach Dave. Your sacrifices have paid off. Even though he had a bit of difficult times during his advanced level, he enjoyed every moment of it.

I’ve been drumming for a long time now. I’ve always wanted to join Sir Michael Alba’s drum masterclass to gain experience and knowledge not only on how to become an effective drummer, but also to become a great musician as well. When I joined Sir Mike’s masterclass 8, I become more knowledgeable on how to fit in on a band and how to blend with the band that I’m playing. He helped me push through my limits and breakthrough the unbreakable walls in life that I thought I couldn’t push through. He taught us a lot in music, and in life. We were ignited and embraced by the words and the lessons he taught us. He is indeed a great inspiration and teacher. Thank you so much Sir Mike for the inspiration! We love you!

There wasn't a single session that was dull or boring because was always something new to learn and something to laugh or smile about. Plus, the songs were really enjoyable to play, particularly the drum solos we did afterwards. So, all in all, I'd really like to thank my batchmates for making my experience in Module 1 unforgettable. Coach Mike, I'm really grateful po for everything you taught me and helping me become a better and more disciplined drummer. I'm looking forward to learning again from you in the next Modules.”

What I love about the Training experience is the community that we had during our sessions with Sir Mike. We pushed one another to be the best and we gave support when someone didn't understand the note reading lessons or some parts of the song for the Groove Workout. It was definitely a worthwhile experience because the Program laid down the right foundation for us in playing the drums and taught us about the importance of having the right “sound” when playing. That its not all about chops but learning how, what, and when to give what the song is actually asking from us.
