Tips for getting the most out of your drum lessons
In most cases, drum lessons are an after thought. Either you start on your own, or you reach a plateau, or wall of progression in your drumming ability. This is typically when the drum lesson search begins.
Usually the local music store is where it starts. This is either the beginner that has just bought his first drum set, or a self-proclaimed intermediate looking for some help to overcome some hurdles he or she has encountered. In this process it is important to know what it is you hope to gain from taking drum lessons. Are you hoping to just get better at a hobby? Or, are you aspiring to make playing the drum your profession of choice? Either way, choosing the right program and the right instructor is crucial for your learning and development.
If your goal is to become better at drumming simply as a hobby, then the choice of instructors may not be as crucial in the long-term scheme of things. However, if your choice is to pursue drumming further than just a hobby, then the selection of your instructor, your drum practice routines, drum kit, as well as who you associate with, can all be crucial to your drumming success.
I've found that having someone teach me that has never aspired for anything more than just being an instructor didn't really match up to the goals I had as a drummer wanting to make my profession performing both live and in the studio. That's why when you are choosing someone to take drum lessons from, it is important that your goals are in close relation to, and supported by the instructor you choose.
For example, I teach drum lessons to several students. They primarily chose me to teach them because they saw me performing in an environment that they aspire to be in someday. What that says is, "I know this guy knows what it takes to be successful playing the drums and I want to be around a drummer who can make me successful too."
If I were to be starting over as a drummer, and had to choose someone to help me get the most out of my drumming, I would have to consider the following. Is this person successful? Do I think they have what it takes to get me where I want to go? Am I committed to do what it takes to get me where I want to go? Do I even know what it takes to get me there?
These are valid questions that need to be asked in order to get the most out of your decision to take drum lessons. Once you have landed on the most appropriate choice for you, commit to it. Work hard at it. Spend the time necessary to be the best drummer you can be. Practice your drumming with a dedication to becoming the best. Practice in a way that is structured to move you toward your goal.
Remember, "The way you practice, is the way you perform."
