Both of my children have studied with Jeff. My daughter continues to go weekly and is always excited to head over to Jeff's studio. It has been an amazing experience to see her learn how to read music, play drums & bells and improve week after week. A true introvert, we could not believe Jeff was able to prepare her and get her to perform on stage at his yearly recital. That alone made this whole experience worth it. I am sure we will continue with Jeff for years to come. If you are looking for a hands on, patient, highly skilled professional musician for you or your children's instruction Jeff is the one. His passion for drums and teaching is undeniable and it comes through in his lessons and comfortable studio environment. At least try the initial free lesson. You won't be disappointed.

Jeff's great, I'd been self taught for years when I first took a lesson with him. He was able to quickly identify and correct some bad habits I'd picked up while explaining the ways they were inhibiting me before showing me creative exercises to improve my vocabulary. Wish I'd taken lessons with him from the start
Jeff is a very knowledgeable music teacher. My kids have been taking drum lessons from him for the past year and during this time he has greatly inspired them to learn and grown with music. Under Jeff’s guidance, kids are able find their own creative expression and enjoy the learning process. I would certainly recommend Johnson Drums because Jeff is a truly remarkable teacher and a great role model.
Jeff is a great instructor and very flexible. Highly recommend!
He is a great teacher. His command over percussion instrument are great. While teaching he covers up all percussion related instruments his studio accommodates all needful instrument. My daughter middle school kid and my son elementary school kid both enjoys taking lessons every week. I truly recommend. He knows very well about all school band teachers and their method of teaching. That really helps the middle school and high school band kids. From Joseph’s Family
I am an “older” student who has never played an instrument of any kind. Jeff’s patience with me is astounding. He knows his stuff and his ability to translate to someone like me is exceptional.
If you are looking for an extremely well rounded Drummer/Percussionist/Educator ...look no further. I was able to take lessons from Jeff for about 6 months during that time his instruction was very student focused. (introduction to Big Band, and refining my marching chops to a concert/orchestral finesse) What I really liked about his studio was that everything was at his finger tips...from equipment, media resources, a massive library of books and a wealth of first hand knowledge. In addition to all of this...he took the time out of his own schedule to facilitate a recital so that his students (including me) could perform what they had been working on. It is those kind of opportunities that completes the educational circle. If I still lived in the Richmond area...Jeff would still be my teacher...hand down!
We have been taking our son to Jeff Johnson for 8 years. Jeff is, quite simply, the best and most professional drum instructor you will find in the Richmond area. Jeff applies a combination of general musical knowledge with a focus on teaching fundamental skills, rudiments and techniques to truly get the most out of any student. Jeff also teaches pitched and mallet percussion which is hard to find locally in a drum teacher of Jeff's caliber. Jeff's own background as a former student of the great Joe Morello makes him a rare find. He has also published a snare instruction book that is used nationwide as a college level textbook. As a result of Jeff's unique approach our son has excelled in middle school band level in District One and has twice been awarded the top overall snare percussionist chair in District Band. You simply will not find a more accomplished, capable and well-rounded drum instructor in Central VA.
