Virtual Drum Lessons
Are you looking for drum lessons? We teach virtual drum lessons to people all over the world.

Upon opening In 2009, BANG quickly become known as NYC’s most welcoming and friendly place for drumming lessons. We began by teaching in-person drum lessons to students from all over the city – from Brooklyn to Jersey. We have always welcomed anyone and everyone, and beginners have always been a focus because we feel they have always been under-served.

Come 2020, we’ve moved from in-person to virtual only. Have a practice pad? Do you have sticks? If so, you’re ready to go.

What We Offer
We offer 45 minute VIRTUAL one-on-one lessons to drum students of all abilities and ages. Our minimum age requirement is 7 years old. Our maximum age? There is none, and we’ve taught students in almost every decade of their lives from 20’s to 70’s. We’ve taught beginners who have never touched a stick and advised and taught professional touring and recording drummers too. Want to know about our private lessons? Read More Here.

Our Unique Teaching Method: “The 11 Pillars of Drumming”
Yes, we have our own proprietary teaching method. It’s built upon the idea that a well rounded and successful drummer must have certain skills and knowledge. The thinking and details behind that method come from the “The 11 Pilars of Drumming” which you can read about here.

Our Reviews: The Best In NYC
It’s true. We’ve got more five star reviews on YELP, Google and Facebook than anyone else in NY who is offering to teach you how to play drums. That’s got to mean something, right?

Our Teachers: Our Greatest Asset (and yours)
But MOST importantly–we have the BEST teachers! They are all professional drummers with deep teaching experience and top-notch educations, many from the top music schools in the country. In addition, our teachers have that “X factor” of personality. All of our teachers have a happy, positive and encouraging attitude and have a huge amount of patience. They have to, or they can’t teach at BANG! Our teachers are chosen carefully and must meet very high standards. We’re very picky because we only want the best.
