My 10 year old son decided last summer he wanted to learn to play the drums. I am so glad we found Gus and Gus' Drum Pad right away and didn't spend time somewhere else first. Gus has been an amazing teacher for Patrick and has really engaged him in learning to play the drums. He has made tremendous progress in less than a year, and he looks forward to seeing Gus every week. Gus is very patient, and takes the time to impart his muscial knowledge to his students - he isn't just teaching drum beats. Whether you are a beginner looking for a place to start, or an experienced drummer looking for a new teacher, you will be making the right decision to take lessons at Gus' Drum Pad.

I've been playing drums for about 7 years now, and in that time, I've had 3 drum teachers. I've been with Gus for about 5.5 years mainly because he is the best teacher. He has so much knowledge to offer about every percussion instrument, and increases your skill so much in all of them. He doesn't just teach the the basic cool beats to rock, but teaches you the foundations of each instrument, so in time, you become a VERY skillful player who doesn't just read the black and white notes off of paper. Through Gus, I have been able to train my ear to the music around me and really further my skills in Drums/percussion. THANKS GUS
