Percussion lessons are available for any age student, at any level. Warren's current student roster spans from 5 years old to 83 years old. In other words, you're never too young or too old to learn to play drums!

Each drum lesson is one half hour and taught at Warren's home studio in
Southwest Orlando. One hour
lessons are available by request. It is recommended students take a drum lesson
once per week. Beginners start on a drum pad and move up to a practice set
after they advance.

Warren also is experienced in and welcomes teaching children with Autism. It is argued that participating in music therapy allows the person with autism to experience and explore a wider range of emotions. The nature of music is to combine a secure structure with constant change; in therapy music can form a familiar environment which the person with autism can participate in, occasionally diverting into episodes of more spontaneous and new experiences of play, according to (or sometimes slightly beyond) his or her ability. An excerpt from kylestreehouse.org. Please feel free to contact us regarding music therapy through drum lessons. |
