Policies
I'm a very easy going guy, but I like to keep things here in writing so as to avoid any confusion in the future.
If you have any questions about my policies, please don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to hearing you play the drums!
Scheduling
I recommend weekly lessons, or bi-weekly at the very least for beginner and intermediate students. Advanced students make take fewer lessons as individual practice time increases. I can be quite flexible with available times, but I do ask that you choose a steady slot, rather than constantly changing your lesson time.
Please be on time! I often have a number of students back to back, so if you arrive late your lesson will still end at its scheduled time.

I accept cash, check, and bank transfer.
Cancellation Policy
I kindly ask that you give at least 24 hours notice if you are going to miss your lesson. If you give less than 24 hours notice or simply do not show, then I cannot reschedule, refund, or credit.
If, for some reason, I am ever late, or am unavailable for your lesson at the last moment, the lesson will be rescheduled at your convenience, or the time will be credited towards a future lesson. Unfortunately, I am still unable to refund payments already received.
Ending Your Lessons
If you decide to discontinue your lessons I kindly ask that you give at least two weeks notice. Unfortunately, I am unable to refund payments already received, but I will credit you for the missed lessons should you decide to re-start, or if you would like to gift them to someone else.
