My New Year’s resolution for 2025 was to find a creative outlet or hobby that got me away from screens. When trying to figure out what that could be, I remembered that when I was in high school, I learned the very basics of drumming and thought it would be a great option to dive into. I had originally been searching for something very casual, maybe once a month, but I am so glad I found Stefano and have made it a weekly practice. I don’t think I would have gotten the same fulfillment out of lessons if I was doing it more casually. I grew up playing piano, so was expecting the drumming lessons to potentially be similar. My biggest fear in taking any sort of music lessons again was the pressure and judgement that often came with lessons as a kid. I had never taken music lessons as an adult (and by choice!) so I wasn’t sure what to expect fully. I think what I’ve learned in the past few months with Stefano is that lessons can be both a safe, fun space to grow and make mistakes, and also a space to hold myself accountable. The way the course started was a great way to ease in to it - I got to start learning Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter in my very first lesson. This instantly got me excited and was an anchor point for me, which made it less daunting once we dove into rudiments, beats, and using a metronome. I’m having so much fun challenging myself each week to learn a bit more and to practice consistently. The best part is, consistency pays off - and I’ve definitely seen myself improve a great deal from week 1! Aside from now knowing the very basics of drumming and being able to play 2 songs that I really enjoy, it’s also been a great stress reliever for me. As someone with a high stress job, I always look forward to my hour lesson each week, and my practice sessions as well. Drumming has become a great way to remain active, for both my brain and body! Also it is so rare these days to find something you enjoy doing that doesn’t involve a tv, computer, or phone screen. I can’t wait to see how I continue to progress with my drumming, and could not recommend a better teacher!! :)

Works really well with our 5 yr old, keeps him on track when he gets distracted and makes the lessons fun. Really cool for us to hear him play and see that he knows the names of the parts of the drum kit. He’s started to read music, too! Mindee is great, can’t recommend her enough.

There aren’t enough stars to give Debbie the review she deserves! Her vast experience and enthusiasm for her craft are invaluable. Debbie is professional and compassionate and truly cares about my daughter and her journey into the world of acting. Lessons with Debbie have resulted in more confidence and a solid foundation to continue building upon.

Jennifer was an amazing teacher. She introduced me to concepts that had been overlooked by previous teachers and directors and helped me discover that there is more to music than playing the right notes.

Ben is an outstanding music educator and mentor. My son, Isaac, started with him a year ago and has grown by leaps and bounds. Ben is knowledgeable, supportive, and patient, and he approaches each lesson and question with the utmost professionalism. He has worked consistently with Isaac toward his college and career goals by pushing and challenging him to not only improve on his preferred style, but also has encouraged him to branch into different musical genres to make him a more well-rounded artist. We feel so fortunate to have found Ben, and we cannot say enough about how much we appreciate his involvement in Isaac’s musical journey.
