About Stuart Wood - Waywood Music Webmaster

I worked for eighteen-and-a-half years (until August 2007) in science and medicine, where most of my time was spent giving presentations on immunology to doctors and healthcare professionals in hospitals around the UK and Ireland.   I left this work to set-up my own company where I specialise in using my communication, presentation and musical skills to enable people to become more confident, creative, productive and fulfilled in their jobs and in life generally.

Drumming and percussion are two great passions of mine which have always run in parallel with my business career. I didn't start playing drums until I was 19 and since 1990 I have branched-out into playing percussion instruments from all over the world.   Along the way I recorded a CD using almost exclusively drums and percussion to paint images. Check out Soundscapes either on this web site or on the Soundscapes-cd web site.

I have worked with and spoken to many great people and musicians over the years who have taught me so much.   Many have become good friends. I want to publicly say THANK YOU to everyone who has encouraged me along the way.

More recently I have authored a book on the value and importance of friendships and relationships called 'Friendship is a Verb (in a hurting world)'. This book was written after severe illness in which I had to ask some very important but basic questions which had been avoided in my busyness. Check out the site for more information.

About Waywood Music

Waywood Music was originally developed as a music publishing label . Since I assumed full responsibility I have tried to expand the business which has included development of this web site. The Waywood Music web site aims to share with you the lessons that I have often had to learn the hard way, information which is not always readily available. Hopefully, you will be able to avoid some of my more painful experiences!

If I were to offer one piece of advice to help you on your way it would be simple ... whatever your level of ability, and no matter how far along the road of drumming/rhythm/percussion you are, keep persevering. Don't give up. You WILL get there in the end.

I have also introduced interactive percussion workshops for both church-based and non-church-based audiences.

The Future

Waywood Music will strive to continue to diversify, adapt to the needs that we are able to meet and work in partnership with others to expand our services.

The site will be continually updated as new information becomes available.
