About Ilya
I'm an award-winning percussionist, pianist, composer, educator, and entrepreneur. Originally born in Russia, I grew up in the States, and have lived and studied in Europe as well. I've won full-tuition scholarships at Berklee College of Music for both, undergrad and grad school, as well as winning many international competitions. Having performed and taught in more than 20 countries around the world, I would love to share my knowledge and experience with you.

Music education is transformative.
In my lessons, I identify the level of the students and always try to push them to reach the next step in their journey. I'd like for my students to have fun playing music no matter their level of playing.
In my lessons we establish why the student is playing music, what are their goals, and the steps that they can take to get there. Knowing many different drum set techniques and educational methods, as well as possessing many audio and video educational materials, I make a personalized lesson plan for each of my students.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience had by the students of Ilya.
Perfect! My 10-year old son immediately responded to Ilya's lesson. I was impressed with Ilya's teaching ability, especially when he saw that my son was struggling with a rhythm. Ilya had him practice some other, slightly less challenging patterns, then returned to the more difficult one, which my son was able to successfully play. He also gave my son the space to zone in and practice for a few minutes. Highly recommend!
Perfect! Awesome! He has two drum sets, so he sat down with me and taught me how to hold the sticks correctly, make hand movements, and so on. I’m happy with him and will continue.

Ilya is one of the best teachers and musicians I know. He graduated from Berklee College of Music and his knowledge and approach to a student is very unique. I would like to recommend Ilya with the full confidence.
Ilya has a unique ability to make complex concepts feel approachable, creating a warm and encouraging atmosphere where students feel at ease asking questions. Their dedication and passion for teaching shine through in every lesson, and they take the time to ensure everyone truly understands the material. With Ilya’s support, students gain both the knowledge and the confidence to succeed.
It is my pleasure to recommend Ilya to anybody who seeks a knowledgeable, dedicated and kind teacher to improve their musical skills! Working with Ilya will help you get a well-rounded education in drums and music in general!
Ilya has opened my eyes on what my true potential is! Before I started studying with Ilya, I never thought I’d feel so confident and excited to play the drums! Ilya is a very talented, patient and kind teacher!
I've seen Ilya work with kids on multiple occasions, and his passion as an educator truly stands out. He’s incredibly calm, patient, and respectful, showing genuine care for his students and creating a positive, nurturing environment for learning. Beyond his teaching skills, Ilya’s musicality, knowledge of different drum styles, techniques, and music theory is impressive. As a musician, he’s one of the most versatile and talented people I’ve played with.
I was thinking of taking drum lessons again and after seeing Ilya play a jazz gig I knew it's gonna be a great match for me in terms of style and feel. He turned out to be a great teacher too - we quickly identified the areas for improvement and created a practice plan. Great clear explanations, lots of practical tips and approaches to develop technique, feel, but also language and musicality. Would definitely recommend Ilya to anyone looking to improve their drumming and music skills in general.
Had two lessons with Ilya so far and can already tell that I understand way more of the things I couldn’t figure out myself and already feel a lot of progress in my chops. Highly recommended.
