(for ages five and up) 
 Our drum instructors teach rock, metal, jazz, funk, blues and many other styles. Drum language can be complex and our instructors will challenge any drummer with a wide variety of technical exercises designed to improve your speed and comfort. All drummers bring in their favorite drum parts to learn in their lessons and theory is encouraged.  Students use our drum set at their lessons and do not have to bring anything except their drum sticks and a notebook.

​AFRAID OF THE NOISE?????
 You DO NOT have to purchase a drum kit! Beginning students can learn with a drum pad and sticks for about $25 - 40.00 . You can also purchase an electronic set at head phones for practicing at home!!

JUST STARTING OUT?
Here are a number of ways you can keep down the sound levels while practicing at home and keeping it affordable:
1. Start on a rubber practice pad
2. Put rubber pads on cheap drums
3. Purchase an electronic drum kit

WHAT WILL I LEARN IN DRUM LESSONS?
Our drum teachers understand that every student is an individual, with personal needs and goals. We make it a priority to tailor how we teach and what we teach to your individual needs!

If you enroll here for lessons, your teacher will ask you about your favorite type of music, and set goals to help you accomplish whatever musical aspirations for yourself or your child. Together, you will develop a plan to achieve your goals! We love beginners, so even if you don't know where to begin, we can help!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

WHAT STYLES OF MUSIC DO YOU TEACH?
We teach all styles of music from rock, pop, country, jazz, classical and more! We combine the important fundamentals with the music YOU want to play. 
WHAT DO YOU LEARN IN YOUR MUSIC LESSONS
That question is often asked by prospective students. Our teachers make it a priority to get to know you on a personal level and to become familiar with your personal musical needs and goals. We do not treat every student the same in terms of what and how we teach. A seven year old having their first guitar lesson will have very different needs than a fifty seven year old taking up piano for the 2nd time after having had lessons as a child. 

The main reason to choose the Academy as your music lesson provider, is that we are sensitive to the fact that every student is an individual. If you enroll here for lessons, we will work with you to make a plan that will fit your needs and musical preferences. At the first lesson your teacher will ask you about your favorite type of music, and set goals to help accomplish whatever musical aspirations you have for yourself or your child.
ARE YOUR INSTRUCTORS QUALIFIED?
Our teachers have received their education from prestigious institutions .Many of our instructors have gone on performance tours of the US and Europe and have over 25 years of professional performance and teaching experience. In addition to their teaching credentials, our teachers have warm personalities, are extremely friendly and strive to get to know each student and their parent on a personal level. ​​
