frequently asked questions

When can I register for weekly lessons?

Students aged 7 and up may register for lessons year round. Lessons are available in 30, 45, and 60 minute durations. 

All lessons meet once a week at the same scheduled time.

What will I need?

Drum students are expected to bring their own sticks and indoor shoes to their lessons. We also recommend bringing a notebook and a pencil. Students taking weekly lessons are strongly encouraged to have their own instrument at home to practice on. We have an acoustic and an electric kit at the studio.

what are your prices?

Lesson subscriptions begin at $120 per month for 30 minute lessons. We bill via automated credit card payments on the 1st of each month. 

How fast can I expect to progess?

Your progress is entirely up to how much time you can dedicate to your instrument on a consistent basis! In other words, the more you play your instrument, the faster you’ll become proficient at it. 

Our instructors will help you develop a practice plan that will you help you achieve your specific goals as quickly as possible, but it is ultimately up to you to determine how fast you learn your instrument!
