In person and online drum lessons for kids

Kids Love Music but They Don’t Always Love Music Lessons.

Your child’s drum lessons here are both educational and FUN. They will be playing the music they love while learning the techniques required to play the drums well. Your child will advance their problem-solving skills, self-confidence, and creativity. 

Even if they are already involved in school music programs, the individual attention from our lessons together will accelerate your child’s drumming technique and musical concepts. This can lead to higher seating placements in their school orchestra and extracurricular opportunities in honor orchestras.

My name is Stefano Ashbridge and I love sharing the art of playing the drums. I have taught hundreds of private and group lessons to students of all ages and skill levels.

No problem if you don’t have a drum set. I have everything we need to get started in a fully equipped studio with a positive learning environment and flexible hours.

The lessons can be recorded so your child can track their progress over time and develop the discipline of reaching their goals. Parents are welcome to sit in on the lessons.

Online lessons are available for your convenience

Online drum lessons are also available for your convenience

 

If you are not able to come to the studio, our online lessons together are easy to set up from the comfort of your home.

Even if you don’t have a drumset, you will receive one-on-one online training, along with written and video downloads that can be accessed on multiple devices.

This is what parents and students have to say

I went in knowing nothing about drumming, and I am now a member of my high school varsity drumline. Stefano makes learning fun and is always available by phone or email if I have any questions.

Matthew Ramirez

I started out with Stefano as an intermediate drummer not knowing what to expect, and I've gotten a lot better since then. He has helped me to improve my timing. I love a challenge and if you're looking for one, Stefano is the guy to go to. Stefano is a great, fun teacher for all levels of drummers.

Frederick Gonzalez

It makes a world of difference when you have a teacher that genuinely wants the best for their students. Stefano is definitely the one to go to. He's a true drummer. Stefano is so understanding and always helpful.

Shanna Clift

Stefano is an amazing drum teacher. He teaches in such a manner that is not threatening or condescending, yet uplifting and positive. He is patient, yet understands that the student wants to just hammer away and make lots of noise so he mixes the basics with permission to let loose.

Bill Townsend

My son learned to play the double bass pedal during his first lesson. No one teaches that! I can't say enough nice things about Stefano and his teaching methods. He is patient and very educated in the art of drumming.  You will learn the basics of drumming as well as share in the love he has for music. Stefano Rocks!!

Hayley Mac Leay

Stefano has really helped me focus my playing and technique to be a better drummer, and musician. Stefano is the only reason I still play drums.

Chris Lemcke

In a very short time with Stefano, I felt confident on the drums. Knowing how to drum properly has made drumming more enjoyable than I could have ever imagined and I sincerely could not have done it without the tutelage of Stefano. I think that Stefano is a great teacher- not just a great drum teacher but a wonderful teacher and a terrific person. He is always prepared, patient and professional.

Todd Gray

My son was nervous before his first lesson with Stefano because he did not know what to expect. He came out of the lesson with a look of confidence and happiness on his face like he thought he was the coolest kid alive. He was like a different kid. I couldn't BELIEVE IT!!  
.
He couldn't wait for the next lesson and was banging the beat to "7 Nation Army" on his thighs.  It's a glorious feeling to see your kid have enthusiasm sparked in their heart with happiness and confidence in their eyes.
.
Stefano has a special type of connection with his student that brings out enthusiasm in his students like my son. He made my son feel like he was on the road to something great together with him.
