Drum lessons are available for ages 8 to adult for students with beginner to intermediate skill levels. Teaching includes rhythm, timing, and improvising skills for a band or worship team.

Private Lesson Policies

The 2022-2023 school year begins August 22, 2022, and ends June 8, 2023. There will be a recital performance on Friday, June 2, 2023. The recital fee is $30 and will be added to your June tuition. This fee covers instrument rental and time for the teachers and technicians who make the recital possible.

REGISTRATION FEE is $30.00 per student for the year (Maximum of $90 per family). Register at cavod.org.

PAYMENTS: Music lessons are $30 per half-hour lesson. Your payment will be calculated monthly, based on the number of weekdays in the month your lesson is scheduled.  Payment is due on the first of each month.  After the 10^th day, if not paid, a $15 late fee will be applied. Cavod reserves the right to charge your card automatically if payment is not made by the 10^th of the month. You must call the office to update any credit card information.

YOUR LESSON TIME is reserved for you every week, whether you use it or not.

CANCELLATIONS & MAKE-UPS: Cancellations must be reserved for emergencies. No more than four cancellations for the school year. A student is entitled to a make-up lesson or account credit if they have canceled with reasonable notice, the teacher must cancel, or Cavod Academy is closed due to unforeseen weather. Make-up classes will be subject to the teacher’s availability.  If the teacher cannot reschedule, a credit may be given within the four day-cancellation policy.  No shows (canceling a lesson without sufficient time for the teacher to adjust their schedule) will be charged, with no make-ups.

DROPPING LESSONS: The studio requires written notice at least four weeks before discontinuing your lessons. You will be responsible for four weeks’ tuition from when the studio receives notification via written document or email.

PRACTICE:  Please treat practicing like other homework. Learning new skills is best served through consistency! Remember this is a training process built by consistent effort over time. Unprepared lessons cost the same as prepared ones, but their value is substantially compromised.
