Drum Lessons

Our instructors teach rock, metal, jazz, funk, blues and other styles of drumming, and challenge every student with technical exercises specifically designed to improve their speed and comfort. Beginning students need only their drumsticks and a notebook, and all that’s needed for practice at home is an inexpensive drum pad. Drummers are encouraged to bring in their favorite drum parts to learn. Drum sets are provided in studio for use during lessons.

What’s the #1 reason to choose the Academy for drum lessons?

Our drum instructors are warm and friendly and get to know each student and parent on a personal level. We work with you to craft a lesson plan that fits your individual needs and the student's favorite type of music. Whether you're playing in local bands, a seven-year-old taking her first lesson, or a fifty-year-old returning to the drums after many years, we’ll set goals to achieve your musical aspirations.
