Brookfield Drum Lessons
Want to learn to play the drums? How this works:
Brookfield drum lessons make learning fun for students and easy for parents! While drums can be loud, beginners can start with just a basic practice pad and drumsticks to learn the fundamentals of rhythm. This allows students to practice quietly as they build their skills. Once a student shows commitment, investing in a drum set is a great next step. You can choose between traditional acoustic drums or electric drum sets, which let students practice with headphones and keep the noise level down. During your Brookfield drum lessons, your teacher can guide you on choosing the right drum set for your needs!
What age can students begin drum lessons?
Students may begin drum lessons as young as 6 or 7 years old, but 8 or 9 is a more typical starting age. Younger drum students can benefit from a few years of piano lessons first, but we don’t require it.
We care about your musical interests
Enjoying the music you play is key to a great experience when learning drums. That’s why our Brookfield drum lessons focus on helping you learn the styles and songs you love. Not sure which style suits you? Our expert teachers will guide you in discovering your passion. Lessons often include playing along with recordings, making you feel like part of the band. If you’re in a school band program, our teachers can also help you master your band music with confidence and skill!
Good technique starts here
Focusing on the music you love is important, but building strong drumming technique is essential for long-term success. Our Brookfield drum lessons ensure students not only enjoy their lessons but also learn proper techniques that set them up to be skilled, confident drummers for life.
High quality drum teachers
Our goal is to hire the best drum teachers in the area. But more than that, our teachers are fun and engaging and always encouraging to their students. We perform professional background checks on all of our teachers before they are allowed to teach at the Music Learning Center.
Frequently Asked Questions
Our drum teachers understand that every student is an individual, with personal musical needs and goals. We make it a priority to tailor how we teach and what we teach to each student’s interests and goals. When you enroll with us for drum lessons your teacher will ask you about your favorite type of music. Then together you will set both short- and longer-term goals in order to accomplish whatever musical aspirations you have for yourself or your child. We love beginners, so even if you don’t know where to begin, we can help!
We teach all styles of drum music. Whether you are looking to play in your school’s band or orchestra, or a rock band, or a worship ensemble, our instructors can help you gain the knowledge and experience you need.

There is no set answer to how long it takes, but with regular practice, a basic level of playing can be accomplished in a few months. Most of our students take lessons on a long-term basis because they want to be constantly improving and they find the lessons enjoyable.
Yes. Even if you don’t have a musical background, you can ask the teacher for advice on how to help your child practice. By simply monitoring that they are playing the songs and exercises a certain number of times each day, you can help your child achieve steady progress. Many parents will sit in on their child’s drum lessons on occasion in order to have a better idea of the way a song should sound, or how the student should be holding their sticks. Though it’s not required, our teachers can help parents be involved with their child’s learning to whatever extent that they are able. Helping the student achieve independence with their at home practice is one of the keys to long term progress.
