In-Home Drum Lessons

Are you ready to unleash your inner rhythm and embark on a musical journey right from the comfort of your own home? Do you also hate Atlanta traffic? 

Look no further – I am here to provide you with exceptional in-home drumming lessons that will have you grooving to the beat in no time.

Getting Started with In-Home Lessons

To ensure a productive and distraction-free learning experience, there are a few prerequisites and guidelines to keep in mind:

1. Drum Set in Good Condition: To qualify for in-home lessons, students must have access to a drum set in good working condition. A well-maintained drum set is essential for effective learning and practice.

2. Dedicated Practice Space: The drum set must be located in an area of the house that is free from distractions. This allows students to fully focus on their lessons and make the most of their practice time.

3. Avoid Closed Bedrooms: It's important that the drum set is not located in a closed bedroom during the session. This ensures proper ventilation and a comfortable learning environment.

4. Lesson Recording: Please be aware that all in-home lessons are subject to be recorded for future review. This recording serves as a valuable tool for tracking progress and improvement over time.

5. Parental Involvement (For Students Under 18): If the student is under the age of 18 years old, parents are allowed to view the lesson via Zoom. This allows parents to stay informed about their child's progress and involvement in the learning process.

In-home lessons are designed to provide a convenient and personalized learning experience, and adhering to these guidelines ensures a smooth and productive drumming journey. I look forward to helping you or your child unlock the rhythmic potential within the comfort of your own home.

Benefits of In-Home Drumming Lessons

1. Convenience: No hassle of commuting to a music studio. Drum Lessons will come to your doorstep, bringing the world of drumming right into your living room. 

2. Personalized Learning: I understand that every student is unique. Lessons are crafted to suit your skill level, interests, and musical preferences. Whether you dream of rocking out to your favorite songs or mastering complex rhythms, I will be happy to guide you each step of the way. (See disclaimer) 

3. Flexible Scheduling: Life can be hectic. With in-home lessons, you have the flexibility to choose lesson times that fit your busy schedule. (See cancelation policy for more information) 

4. Progress Expectation: Learning to play the drums should be an enjoyable journey. I foster a positive and encouraging learning environment, ensuring that you progress at your own pace while having fun along the way. However, I will push you out of your comfort zone in order to get the best playing version of yourself. 

5. All Ages and Skill Levels: Whether you're a child, a teenager, or an adult, it's never too early or too late to start drumming. I welcome drummers of all ages and skill levels, from beginners taking their first steps to experienced musicians seeking to expand their repertoire. I have experience with teaching students who have had strokes, behavioral issues, and those who are on the spectrum for Autism.

Fundamental Techniques: Learn the essential techniques, rudiments, and rhythms that form the foundation of drumming.

Playing to Music: Explore various musical genres, play along with your favorite songs, and develop your sense of timing and groove. (See Disclaimer) 

Improvisation and Creativity: Discover your unique style as I encourage you to experiment, improvise, and create your drumming patterns.

Performance Opportunities: If you're interested, I will guide you through performance preparation, helping you gain confidence to share your talents with friends and family. Performing is a requirement every 3-6 months.

Recording Sessions: Take your skills to the next level with the option to record your drumming sessions and tracks. I will also teach you how to market yourself using social media.
