FAQ'S
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - DRUM LESSONS BARCELONA
What do I need to start taking drum lessons?
Nothing, just the desire to come and give it a try.
If after the first free trial lesson you decide to start, in principle, you will only need a pair of drumsticks and a notebook. I will provide you with all the teaching material: the books in digital format and the sheet music in physical format.
.
Do I need to have a drum kit to start taking classes?
The answer is no.
I teach both, drum lessons for adults and drum lessons for children. All of them with different vital circumstances and different availabilities, which allow them to have or not an instrument at home.
There are people who can’t dedicate time to it but enjoy coming for an hour a week to have contact with the drums and with music. The process is slower, but class by class they make progress, building and enjoying it.
There are other students who can dedicate some time during the week, but they don’t have an instrument. Luckily there are several places around Barcelona where you can rent a space for hours with a complete drum set for a very reasonable price.
Then, for people who can dedicate some time to it but live in flats, there is always the possibility of buying an electronic drum kit, which is an excellent solution for these circumstances, as the sound they emit is minimal.
I take this opportunity to add that any of the previous or similar cases can be accompanied by practice at home with a practice pad. Small and economical portable tool that emulates the bounce of a snare head and allows us to exercise at home with hardly any noise.
Whatever your circumstances, the answer is that you don’t need the instrument to start with, after a few lessons you will realise this and decide whether to buy an instrument or not, or rent a space by the hour.

LOCATION
If you are looking for drum lessons in Barcelona or the metropolitan area, or you are one of the people who google drum lessons near me or drum classes near me, don’t hesitate!
My studio is located inside the Bandasonora building, right in front of the Verneda Metro station (L2). We are just a stone’s throw away from neighborhoods like Poblenou, El Clot, Sant Martí, Sant Andreu, and La Sagrera, and less than 20 minutes from Sagrada Familia, Guinardó, or Horta.
Many of my students come from areas like Vila de Gràcia or Eixample, taking advantage of our convenient free parking right at the door (for cars and motorcycles), avoiding the hassle of parking in the city center.
If you are coming from Vallès or Maresme (Badalona, Santa Coloma, Montgat, or El Masnou), the building is located next to Exit 29 of the Ronda del Litoral (B-20). If you come by bike, you can lock it outside or bring it up to the studio with you!

Una persona que se nota que ama lo que hace, muy dedicada,está en todo. Un genio, muy atento y claro para explicar, aparte de que me divierto mucho tocando cuando voy 🙌 A 15 minutos desde Sagrada Familia con la L2, muy fácil y rápido de llegar, la sala un espacio muy bien ambientado y cómodo que no dan ganas de irte! Siempre te vas con ganas de volver y muy motivadx 🤘🏻🤘🏻Publicado en Denis Mc KeownTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Have been loving the lessons with Gonzalo! Really good pace matched with my level, challenging but always doable and been feeling great progress each class. Played when I was younger and Gonzalo explained everything really clearly so I've a better understanding now of the basics than ever. Easy to get to the class as well on the L4 which is really handy!Publicado en Fernando BarriosTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Sin duda lo recomiendo. Inicié hace 2 meses y el avance que he tenido es muy bueno. Gonzalo te explica desde lo básico y se preocupa en corregir todo error que uno pueda cometer. Además la ubicación me viene muy bien, vivo en Badalona y con transporte público llego sin problemas.Publicado en Mar de AlvaroTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Gonzalo es un profesor genial! Clases dinámicas, divertidas y prácticas en las que se nota rápido el progreso. Espacio muy bien comunicado, se llega bien y rápido con metro o bus desde Poblenou. Muy recomendable!Publicado en Jordi CorominasTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Desde siempre quise aprender a tocar la batería. Finalmente, y ya con 61 años, empecé con Gonzalo hace poco más de un mes y estoy encantado con sus clases y con su método de enseñanza. Desde la segunda clase empecé a tocar alguna pieza junto con él a la guitarra. El lugar donde imparte sus clases está muy bien comunicado con metro y, en mi caso que vivo en Poblenou, en menos de 25 minutos estoy allí. Muy, pero que muy recomendable !!Publicado en Ángela NavarroTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Suuuuper recomendable! Empecé hace 2 meses a tocar la batería desde 0 con Gonzalo y he avanzado muy rápido. Las clases son muy divertidas y dinámicas, explica súper bien y se nota que le gusta enseñar. Desde el inicio ya tocas canciones conocidas y en clase también tocas junto a otro instrumento (guitarra) con él, lo que enriquece mucho más el aprendizaje.Publicado en Karol GTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Just started learning drums with Gonzalo a few weeks ago and love it! The classes are a perfect mix of having fun and challenging us to progress in our journey. Gonzalo is a great teacher, passionate about music, patient and with super positive attitude. He can very accurately specify what you need to work on and help you focus your learning (e.g. I had a bit of an issue synchronizing bass drum with the rest, Gonzalo picked it up and we fixed it). Really looking forward to Friday afternoon classes every week!Publicado en Haruna SakanishiTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. He tenido una experiencia excelente en las clases de batería. Las clases son muy amenas, bien explicadas y adaptadas a mi nivel. He aprendido muchísimo y siempre salgo con ganas de seguir tocando!Publicado en Hadley MantiaTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Gonzolo is an absolute incredible teacher. I came to Barcelona to study and wanted to pick up some lessons, and I am so glad it was with him. He brings great energy to every lesson and in just a few months I already feel like I learned so much. He inspiried me to continue drumming even after I've left! Next time I visit Barcelona, I'll have to book another one.Verificado por: TrustindexLa insignia verificada de Trustindex es el símbolo universal de confianza.
