Drum Lessons That Turn Energy Into Rhythm
Our Garland drum lessons give students time on a real drum kit with a teacher right beside them. Beginners learn how to hold the sticks, keep a steady beat and play their first grooves. More experienced drummers work on fills, dynamics, reading rhythms and playing along with songs.
Drumming builds coordination, focus and confidence, and our nonprofit rates and scholarships help more Garland kids get behind the kit.
Steady Timing
Keep a solid beat with and without music.
Coordination
Hands and feet working together, step by step.
Grooves & Fills
Rock, pop and gospel patterns students can use.
Play Along
