Frequently Asked Questions
Drum lessons are available for students of all ages, starting from age 6.
Regular, consistent practice is crucial for improvement in any musical instrument, but you will determine with your teacher exactly what the perfect, customized practice schedule looks like for you!
Every Expressions studio comes equipped with full drum sets for students to use during lessons, so you don’t need to have your own set in order to get started! However, practice outside of lessons is important for improvement, so we do recommend that students have access to their own instrument outside of lessons.
Learning time varies by individual and improvement relies on practice at home as well as time spent in lessons! To help our students succeed, Expressions provides structure and support, from our special Level Up Music Achievement Program, to our bi-yearly recitals, our digital sheet music library, and more!
Yes, Expressions Music Academy welcomes beginners and our teachers have experience creating structured programs for students with no prior musical experience!
