Jason W. says, "I wanted to take a moment to brag about my guitar teacher Jimmy and the amazing job he is doing. I have taken lessons a few times and found out the teachers were not teaching certain fundamentals which he caught on my first lesson and it has totally changed my whole guitar playing experience. Jimmy is an amazing guitarist and really able to relate things in different ways to make someone understand them. Not only am I learning scales and chords progressions but music I like to keep me wanting to play. I cannot express how much I enjoy playing guitar now and look forward to my next lesson. I would also like to say that Kevin the lesson coordinator is an amazing employee as well. He loves music and also checks each week before my lesson and after to make sure everything is going well. I am now getting there 15 minutes early to talk to Kevin about music. You have an amazing program going on at this store with top notch people. Thank you for making music a reality. " Read more

Are drum lessons worth it?

At what age do you start drum lessons?

Children can start drum lessons between 6 to 9 years old. Initial instruction begins with a single drum. Kids can't play on a full drum kit until they can reach the foot pedals and focus for extended periods of time. For adults, any age is suitable to learn drumming.

How long is a drum lesson?

My first guitar lessons were with Adam and he helped me find my love for music and guitar and it’s grown to be a huge huge part of my life. Adam has been an amazing teacher and friend and has taught me a lot. I’d reccomend anyone with an interest in guitar to Stapletones in an instant. Adam keeps it fun and personal while still teaching you everything from favorite songs to advanced music theory. 5 stars isn’t high enough!
