"The things that I learn from Timothy, I use on every gig.  His instruction is clear and opens many doors for me." -Wallace Lester

"Timothy Quigley was my first percussion teacher, and helped me develop not only as a drummer, but as a musician. His approach to teaching can best be described as rounded and creative. He was ever sensitive to my needs as a novice, and helped steer me towards various elements of creativity, rhythmic development and musical discipline. Without his initial guidance and encouragement I would never have gotten to the stage where I am today. I am currently persuing a performance based Ph.D in Ethnomusicology, involving research on Ewe vodun music in Ghana and Benin." -Mike Rhode

Drumming lessons with Timothy Quigley were delightful and fun. I always looked forward to them. He was able to work with an totally uptight non-musician with absolutely no confidence, relax me and to tune in and customize our time together to be what I needed to connect to the music. I am grateful to Timothy for his unshakable confidence that rhythm is alive naturally in all of us…and his ability and flexibility to help me find what MY rhythms were rather than try to teach me “from the book.” -Gary Hubaik

"I'm a trumpet player, and I thought that taking drum lessons would expand my rhythmic vocabulary and give me a stronger sense of time. Timothy is a wonderful instructor for the non-drummer, who will teach you the basics and give you a much sturdier rhythmic foundation than you walked in with. He can teach you everything from traditional African rhythms, jazz and latin, to Balkan and Arabic music. Understanding the rhythmic basis of these musics is absolutely essential to performance on melody instruments, and studying with Timothy has greatly improved my knowledge of these rhythms." -Ben Holmes
