Drum lessons

Similar to the bass guitar, the drums give any music a firm foundation. An amazing drummer will make any band sound better, and a lousy drummer will raise the eyebrows (not in a good way) of even the most non-musical people.

As with all of our lessons, we’ll first want to understand your goals and constraints. Where do you want to be with the drums in one, five, ten years from now? How much time each day will you realistically devote to practicing drums? What type of music do you like and what would you like to be able to play? Do you want to join a band?

“InTune Studios brings so much versatility and experience to the table. So fun and easy to work with, they’ll make learning your instrument a blast!”
– Denver, Drummer for Coincidence Maybe

We want you to be able to play your music. For some that will take weeks, others it will require years. Either way, we want to make sure you have a solid foundation. We emphasize good, safe technique so that you can enjoy playing drums for the rest of your life. Other important aspects of drums that we teach include:

  • Crazy beats!
  • Sticking patterns/rudiments
  • Technique
  • Ghost notes
  • Role of drums in various band situations
  • Rock, jazz, funk, rap, R&B

Studio rates and payment policy

We give most of our private lessons Monday through Friday from 11am-7pm, and a limited number on Saturday. Private lessons are $50/hour.

We recommend one hour lessons once a week for all of our students. Half hour lessons are available for students in elementary school for $30/lesson.

Lessons are paid for by the month on the last lesson of the prior month.

We give most of our lessons from one of our two home studios, but will make a limited number of house calls.

Cancellation policy

Lessons cancelled within 24 hours must be paid for and cannot be rescheduled unless due to illness or emergency.

Lessons cancelled with more than 24 hours notice can be rescheduled to a time different than the regularly scheduled lesson, and within two weeks of the cancelled lesson.

We are flexible and understanding so if you need a specific arrangement we’ll do our best to make it happen.

Thanks…Dave and Lee
