Drum lesson prices
Individual drum lessons with Jonno Gaze in Birmingham cost £20 for 30 minutes or £35 for an hour. Choose a length and discuss a suitable routine.
Choosing a lesson length
Half-hour lessons provide a shorter, focused session and can suit younger learners. An hour gives us more time to explore technique, music and questions together. Discuss your experience, concentration and practice time rather than choosing a longer lesson simply because you feel you should.
Planning your budget
Four half-hour lessons cost £80, or four hour-long lessons cost £140 at the advertised rates. These examples are not subscriptions or block discounts. Lessons are pay as you go, with weekly, fortnightly or another agreed frequency. Confirm payment arrangements when booking.
Home visits and online lessons
The advertised studio prices are £20 for 30 minutes and £35 for an hour. Home tuition is available to a limited number of students and additional travel costs may apply. Please agree the complete price and practical arrangements for a home visit or online lesson before booking.
Cancelling or rearranging
Please give at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or rearrange. The advertised policy charges the full lesson fee for cancellations within 24 hours. Any charge must be fair and reflect losses reasonably incurred, taking account of costs saved or a replacement booking, and respect your statutory rights. Contact me as early as possible if your plans change.
Frequently Asked Questions
I teach adults and children from age six, from complete beginners to experienced drummers. A 30-minute lesson is usually a useful starting point for younger learners. Include the student’s age when enquiring so we can discuss lesson length, supervision and a suitable starting point.
Lessons draw on the music you enjoy, with different styles offering different approaches to groove, timing and coordination. Bring a recording or name an artist you like. We can choose a manageable pattern and connect it with the wider song.
No. Grades are optional. I offer preparation for grades 1–8, but you can equally learn for enjoyment, to play favourite songs or to make music with others. If an exam interests you, we should confirm the exam board, current syllabus, entry requirements and separate fees before choosing a course of preparation.
