The percussion drum is the beat and backbone of any band. The drum is the perfect instrument to build hand-eye coordination, and strengthen one’s rhythmic skills. Hanway music offer solo and accompaniment drum lessons for all types of musical genre such as: R&B, Rock, Pop, or Jazz

However, one problem students may encounter is the volume of the drum. When practising the instrument at home, it could create problems for your neighbours. At Hanway Music School in Markham and Richmond Hill, the only things you will need is: Drum Stick, Drum Pad, Lesson Book. These tools makes learning the drums interactive and affordable.

Apart from these, every year at Hanway we host a collective student recital, to give our students an opportunity to perform on stage. From this, students may gain collective experiences performing on stage and as well as an insight to other peers performance styles.

“Mr. Jimenez has been very engaging and fun to be around during lessons. His instructions were clear and I found it very helpful he always do a demo example for me before it was my turn to play. He also made sure I knew what to practise at home and how to practise each part before each lesson ended. This gave me confidence that I was not able to receive from my previous teacher.” – Michael Z (17 years old, RCM Level 3 Percussion)
