Sinclair Percussion Academy

I am now for scheduling Fall 2025 percussion or drums lessons! A few key notes:

-I teach virtual and in person, normally
Mondays but occasionally I make exceptions if possible.

-$40/hour or $25/half hour. (free lesson If semester paid up front). Billing is either semester up front or month to month paid in advance.

-drum set, traditional concert percussion, and hand drums (like djembe) are all options for focus of study.

-I am reasonable when it comes to cancellations and rescheduling as long as they are occasional. (Sometimes, not often, I will also need to cancel or reschedule because of my job, family issues that arise, etc).

-Check out my reviews on google or my FB biz page (Sinclair Percussion Academy).

Reach out if you are interested in this for yourself or your child. Feel free to share this with those who you believe may be interested/can benefit from lessons.

I am taking students from age 12 to adults. Never too late to start!

I’ve enjoyed working with children who have autism. I never realized my consistent flow of students in public school band with autism would prepare me to work with other autistic children in private lessons.

As with any student, there are challenges. And as always, working to find solutions to the challenges is fascinating and satisfying in the long run.

Parent review: “My son has been getting lessons from Mr. Sinclair for 2 years now. I've seen a lot of improvements and my son still loves drumming today as much as he used to!
Thank you Mr. Sinclair, for all you do!”

One of my students playing a rudimental solo for snare drum. He’s come a long way since beginning in percussion about a year and a half ago!

Testing out a new toy today! Meinl Snarecraft Cajon with walnut front plate. This was purchased through my church for use in worship, but loving it so far so might have to get one of my own at some point! Foot pedal and brushes to come in the mail soon!
