Drum Lessons for kids and adults

For the beginning to advanced drummer looking to learn how to improve their drumming practice. Improve coordination, learn songs and grooves, study the masters. Drum kit, mallet percussion, classical percussion and djembe.


Learning how to play drums in my thirties could have been an idea quickly lost after a few boring lessons but then I met Mike.

Mike Marcinowski is an exceptional teacher; patient, knowledgeable, talented, structured, enthusiastic and supportive. From theoretical to practical, Mike expertly teaches me the basics of drumming and then how to apply them to playing along to music and creating my own songs!

I leave each lesson excited and inspired and that is because of the care and fun that Mike puts into our time.

Drumming for teams

Looking for a way to revitalize a team, to improve communication and creativity? Playing the drums uses all areas of the brain and stimulates creative thinking. Change the dynamic of your group for the better.


As the drummer in my funk band, Middle Blue, Mike provides both an airtight rhythmic foundation and a sense of adventure. In other words, the beat is always concrete, but never *too* straight. He’s always doing something interesting or mysterious with it. Also, he’s full of surprises. Just the other day, he threw a rhythmic idea at me that I hadn’t heard from him, and we’ve been playing together for over a year. If I were a drummer, I’d be excited to take lessons with Mike.
