🌟 This class is a great option for neurodivergent students interested in music.

🎵 The objective of these self-paced drum lessons is to enable the student to gain a greater set of technical and musical skills on the drum set, and to help the student develop a greater understanding of the role of the drum set in modern contemporary music. 

🎵 This is achieved through the repetitive practices of technique and coordination, as well as developing critical listening skills demanded of drummers.
