Do I need a drum kit at home?
Yes you will need a drum kit at home but I can recommend affordable beginner options.
Is an electric kit OK for learning?
Yes — electric kits are great for quiet practice and perfect for beginners.
What age can children start?
Typically 6+, depending on coordination and focus. I can offer a trial lesson to see if it's a good fit.
Do you teach complete beginners?
Yes, absolutely — most of my drum students start from scratch.
Is drumming too loud for home practice?
Electric kits keep the noise down, and acoustic kits can use practice pads or low-volume cymbals.
