Private Drum & Percussion Lessons

Welcome to Vincent Pierce Percussion—where your rhythm journey begins. Whether you’re a beginner picking up sticks for the first time, an intermediate player looking to level up, or a seasoned musician refining your craft, your private lessons are tailored just for you. 

Led by Vincent Pierce, a dedicated educator and performer, each lesson is designed to build technique, musicality, confidence, and creativity. From drum set to world percussion, you’ll explore grooves, timing, reading, and expression across styles—from funk, jazz, and rock to Afro-Cuban, Brazilian, and beyond. After studying North Indian music intensely since 2003, Vincent also teaches Tabla. With over 20 years of teaching experience, he creates a patient and focused teaching atmosphere. Vincent’s modern studio and advanced equipment allow students to use technology and programs useful for learning drums in the 21st century. He is currently a lecturer at Mason Gross School of the Arts, Rutgers University.

Lessons are available for all ages and skill levels, with a focus on personal growth, fun, and real musical results. Let’s build your foundation, strengthen your skills, and unlock the drummer inside you.
