DRUM LESSONS FOR BEGINNERS
All of our drum instructors love working with beginners and have experience creating a structured program to help students master all the foundational aspects of not only drumming technique, but also rhythm, theory, and reading music. Instructors use both method books and the student’s favorite songs to teach concepts, generally starting with the snare drum and quickly moving to use the entire drum set. Our drum rooms have two full acoustic sets so the instructor can demonstrate on one set while the student plays on the other.
DRUMS FOR EXPERIENCED STUDENTS
Whether students have been self-taught, have experience from another instructor or school, or gained all their experience at Expressions, we know how to help them reach the next goal. Intermediate or advanced drum or percussion students learn how to play more challenging music and fine-tune and polish their playing by mastering more advanced techniques and theoretical applications. Whether students want to learn a new style, prepare for a high school or college audition, get good enough to join a band, or just keep playing for fun, our instructors have the knowledge and experience to get them there.
DRUMS FOR ADULTS
There is no greater way to release stress than banging on the drums to your favorite songs! Our instructors enjoy working with adults whether they are brand new beginners or already have some experience playing. After talking through your specific goals, our instructors will create a structured plan that will have you on a path to success before you know it, all while jamming out, relieving stress, sharpening your skills, and having a blast!

We can help you from wherever you are as long as you have an internet connection and a smartphone, tablet or a laptop with a web camera. Lessons are conducted live in our studios and transmitted to you in your home via Zoom. Get instant feedback on your playing or singing.

FREE RECITALS TWICE PER YEAR
Students want to feel motivated to practice and parents want to see progress, and our optional recitals accomplish both these objectives. We offer a variety of recital options and themes twice each year. We pride ourselves on our well-organized, warm, supportive performance events which never last longer than an hour... and they’re entirely free for all involved!
LEVEL UP MUSIC ACHIEVEMENT PROGRAM
Our students have been enthusiastically climbing from levels 1 through 10, earning certificates, wristbands, stickers, and trophies since we launched this signature program in 2012. Think about the martial arts Black Belt program… but for music lessons! This structured, nationally recognized, and motivating program is completely free (and optional) for Expressions students of all ages, and our students have never been more motivated to master their instrument!
PROFESSIONAL OFFICE STAFF AVAILABLE 7 DAYS A WEEK TO SERVE YOU
Many music studio desks are staffed by the teacher or owner or more commonly, an answering machine. We have a team of super caring administrative professionals who are available at the front desk to assist our students warmly and effectively in person, by phone, by email, or by text seven days a week. We think you will quickly find we are one of the most organized companies you have ever worked with!
FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING AND MAKEUP OPTIONS 7 DAYS A WEEK
We have many weekday afternoon and evenings and Saturday and Sunday morning and afternoon lesson times, and we're open all year round, including the summer. If you need to cancel your lesson or change your lesson time, no problem! Our busy families love our convenient unlimited makeup lesson and schedule change policy. And if you’re too busy or unable to come in for a make-up lesson, you can even request that your teacher create you a custom video make-up lesson instead! There are plenty of flexible options for all.
PLENTY OF PARKING, BEAUTIFUL FACILITY, AND SPACIOUS LESSON ROOMS
We are so incredibly proud of our beautiful, clean, bright, and spacious facilities! Most studios hold their lessons in small and almost closet-sized rooms, but we think it is important to learn in an open, airy, inspiring environment with natural light and tasteful décor! We believe learning music should be seriously fun, and we like for our facility to represent both the serious and fun natures of what we do and who we are!
WAITING ROOMS AVAILABLE FOR BOTH PARENTS AND CHILDREN
We have spacious and comfortable waiting areas for our families with free WIFI, magazines, water, and complimentary hot coffee and tea.
ALL LESSON MATERIALS CONVENIENTLY AVAILABLE
All of our students are given an official Expressions binder and tote bag to carry all of their materials and keep them organized, free of charge. And when your instructor notifies us that you need the next book or an additional book, we will order it for you for convenient pick-up at your next lesson! All starting materials like notebooks, binders, and a tote bag as well as recitals and our Level Up Music Achievement Program are included in the affordable monthly tuition.
COMPETITION OPPORTUNITIES AVAILABLE
For students who enjoy a little extra push, there are competition opportunities available for Expressions students through the American Guild of Music. AGM competitions cater to students of all ages, levels, and instruments, and our students who participate always feel excited and motivated to practice and compete again the next year. Competitions are always optional and we never require our students to perform or compete.
MONTH TO MONTH LESSON STRUCTURE
No long-term quarterly or annual commitments. Students are only committed to a month at a time.
