Our Drum Students

  • What’s a good age to start playing drums?

    Students can start at age 7 and up. You’re never too old to play the drums! We believe that drum lessons are for anyone who has the desire and the will to learn.

  • What levels of instruction do you offer in your drums lessons?

    We can accommodate students at all levels of learning - beginner, intermediate, and advanced.

  • How much will it cost to get sticks and a practice pad for my drum lessons?

    Preparing to learn to play drums is relatively inexpensive; For around $35 you can find a practice pad and drumsticks at your local music store.

  • Do we need a drum set to learn drums?

    No; In fact, a practice pad and sticks is where we start with all beginners.

  • Can I rent a drum kit?

    Yes; But the cost of drum set rental fees usually outweighs the cost of buying a used drum set.

  • Will I be able to play "that song" on the radio that we like so much?

    How well you can play your favorite songs depends on how much you practice; Songs always sound easier than they actually are. But, through our music classes, under the professional guidance of out teachers, and with practice, chances are high you'll be drumming your favorite tunes in no time!

  • How long should I practice at home?

    Practice is essential to learning to play drums. We recommend starting with 15 minutes every day. As you progress with your drum lessons, you will slowly increase practice time at home.

  • Do you teach multiple styles of drumming, such as Jazz, Swing, Rock n' Roll, Hard Rock, Symphonic Percussion, etc?

    Yes, we do! But, we believe it's important to create a foundation to build upon first. That foundation is what we (parent, student, and teacher) build together from day one through Natomas Music Square's comprehensive drum classes. It's very important to develop the basic skills required to play the drum first and grow frm there.

Enroll anytime. It's super easy.
