Drum Lessons in Ontario, CA
A 30-minute private drum lesson at Golden Echo Academy costs $40. Lessons are one-on-one at 2550 S Archibald Ave Ste D, Ontario, CA 91761, on a studio drum set, so a beginner can start without buying a kit. Lengths are 30, 45, or 60 minutes. Kids and adults welcome.
Drums are the instrument parents hesitate over and kids ask for. Beginners play on the studio drum set, so a family can start without buying a kit or hauling one across town. When a student decides to keep going, we help you pick out an instrument for home.
Mr. Anthony earned his Bachelor of Arts in Music at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, where he studied Recording Technology and Music Production, and he has recorded local artists in his own home studio. Lessons follow the student's own taste in music while building the fundamentals underneath it — rhythm, coordination, and rudiments — and the yearly student recital gives every drummer a real audience to play for.
