Drums Lessons
If you are not sure what instrument to choose, drums are a great instrument to start out with because they provide a solid rhythmic foundation that can be applied to other instruments in the future.
Drum lessons teach reading rhythmic notation which will be useful for any instrument one chooses to study later.
Students will learn how to accompany songs and bands and keep beat in different styles as well as learning basic musical notation.
Our lessons are taught on an electric drum kit although real hand drums and small drums may also be used during the lesson.
Drum FAQs
What age is appropriate for learning drums?
Children can start drum lessons at 5 years old. (4 years old in some cases.) Of course, it’s never too late to start an instrument and drums make a great hobby for adults.
Do I need to have a set of drums at home?
It is recommended to have a set of drums at home for practicing. If you are concerned about noise, consider an electronic drum kit or quiet mesh drum heads.
What if I don’t have drums yet?
We can make quality recommendations for you either at a scheduled trial lessons or via email prior to the first lesson.
