Beginners will focus on:

Our lessons incorporate modern and effective drumming methods, including:
-
Hand techniques: Moeller, Gladstone, Free Stroke
-
Foot techniques: Heel Down, Heel Up, Full Step, Slide

Influential drumming systems: T. Igoe, G. Chaffee, G. Chester, T. Reed, and more
Group Lessons
Our group lessons allow students of different skill levels to train together while receiving individualized instruction.
Each 120-minute session includes:
-
Hands-on instruction with a teacher
-
Independent practice time to reinforce concepts
-
Technique assessment and corrections
Silent practice pads help maintain focus while allowing for precise execution of techniques without distractions. The primary goal is to build solid hand and foot technique, a key element for developing clean and controlled drumming.
As students progress, they transition to an acoustic drum kit, applying their refined technique to full-kit coordination and groove development. This course suits both beginners and experienced drummers looking to enhance their technical foundation.
Course Includes:
-
Proper drum throne positioning, grip variations, and their applications
-
Gladstone & Moeller techniques and their use in real-world drumming
-
Rudiments: Singles, doubles, paradiddles, flams, and their application behind the kit
-
Reading drum notation and sight-reading exercises
-
Metronome training and developing timekeeping skills
-
Foot technique: Hi-hat and bass drum control, single and double pedal exercises
-
Playing to backing tracks in various musical styles
Students attend classes twice a week (120 minutes per session), ensuring consistent progress under instructor supervision. Upon completion, students can continue with private lessons for further development.
