Questions can be on ANY topic and I stay live until every question has been answered. – 20-30 minute practice breakout sessions with most new lessons. I teach you how to methodically go through your practice time and apply the material you are learning. -Access to the student YouTube channel.

How do the live lessons work?

The live lessons are the interactive part of The Shed. It’s exactly what it sounds like…a streaming live drum lesson.  Nothing is pre-recorded.  It’s all very live and very interactive.  Stephen teaches a lesson (45-60 minutes) and then allows plenty of time at the end of the lesson for questions via the chat board.  Each live lesson also comes with a PDF download of the exercises. All practice breakout sessions last approximately 30 minutes.

What if I miss a live Q&A session?

Missing a lesson isn’t a problem in the least. The main focus of a subscription is the 24 hour access to the incredible amount of organized video lessons and sheet music (and there are hundreds of them). We assume most students can’t make all of the live times…and some never attend a live lesson altogether. If you miss a lesson, that lesson will be available for you to watch AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WANT in the members area. It typically takes 1-2 days for a live lesson to post in the members area. You can then review the lesson and come to the next live session prepared to KILL it!

That’s all great…but I can’t read music!!!

Not a problem. Upon signing up for the lessons, you’ll find a lesson track dedicated to teaching you the basics of reading music. Stephen will take you through the process step by step so that you can get the most out of your time in The Shed. Reading music isn’t hard…and we’ll prove it to you.

What makes your lessons different than other lessons on the internet?

Good question. In short, ORGANIZATION, goal setting, and access to a personable teacher. We put you on a lesson track on the topic you need to work on, give you video lessons and sheet music, help you organize your goals, and provide you with additional lesson resources to help you achieve daily progress. Stephen answers all of his own email from the students. No hired guns touch them. He takes your drum education as seriously as he takes his own. Personal contact with a teacher is so very important. We also love organization. I am constantly improving and refining how the lessons are delivered, how the content is presented, and how things are organized. We want your education to be specific, personal, and goal oriented.

What payment methods are accepted?

Stephens Drum Shed accepts all major credit cards, debit cards, and PayPal.

What makes Stephen qualified to teach me?

I don’t have a high speed internet connection…can I still view the lessons?

We know that many people across the world (yes…Stephens Drum Shed has students from the Netherlands, Australia, Canada, Spain, North America, South America, Hong Kong, Thailand, Germany, the UK…the list could go on for quite a while) do not have access to quality high speed internet. All of the lessons in The Vault are offered in standard definition. Every lesson recorded after January 2013 is offered in standard definition as well as hi-definition.

Can we contact Stephen with questions?

Abso-frickin-lutely!  That’s the whole reason he’s here…to help you become the best “you” on the drums that you can be.  Don’t hesitate one second to shoot him a line.  He answer each and every one of them.
