drums / percussion

The drum set, snare drum, tambourine, xylophone, and even piano (technically) are all members of the PERCUSSION family!

Depending upon the student's goals, we can focus on playing drum set, supplement school band percussion, or even just get into some rhythm basics.  In any case, we try to incorporate basic reading, rudiments, and playing positions.

Materials utilized are a notebook, a pencil, a metronome, drum sticks, a practice pad (or safe surface), and a textbook.  The student's specific interests, aspirations, age, and skill level will determine specific books, music, and the like beyond that.

Lessons are available from beginner to performance levels.

*There is not a heavy focus on metal or marching drumming.*
