How does a beginner get started playing the drums?
Professor H can bring everything you need to your first lesson, including music, a music stand and drum sticks. Beginners often start on a drum pad, and professor H can bring that as well. If you already have a snare drum or a full kit, you may be able to just start with that and skip the drum pad.

Can I take drum lessons in my own home?
Drums are not easily portable, so Professor H will come right to your home every week and give you lessons right there.
