Class Experience

Beginner - Intermediate Level
Eight-week (Drum Set Level 3) lessons are perfect for students beginning their drumming journey. In this course, students will learn how to read basic 16th-note rhythmic notation, drum rudiments, and musical timing, laying the foundation for their musical path. Additionally, students can practice the 16th-note exercises to improve their motor skills and coordination. With the guidance of our experienced instructor, beginners will gain the necessary skills and confidence to take their drumming to the next level. 

Lesson Topic: Eight lessons on 16-note drum beats, eight 16th-note reading lessons, and basic drum rudiments.

This class is asynchronous; you can move through the lessons quickly.

Lessons will have 1-3 instruction videos and printable lesson materials to practice with.

The method used in these lessons will meet different learning styles as I use three teaching methods to reach each learner. 

Students and parents are encouraged and welcome to contact me for review, help, or concerns during this 8-week course.
