Memberships & prices
Straightforward pricing, no joining fees, and free practice time and concert rehearsals included with every membership.
A complete music learning experience
A Planet drum membership gives you a complete music learning experience: regular individual lessons with the same tutor every time, practice time on your own, and rehearsal time with others, because playing together is what music is about.
Every membership includes
Concert rehearsals
Free monthly group rehearsals with our house band, building toward live concerts twice a year, in summer and Christmas. It's where lessons turn into playing together.
Practice time
Free monthly practice slots in our Islington studios, plus more bookable off-peak slots whenever you need them. Twin-kit drum rooms, band rehearsal space and a full PA, all included as a member.
Grades
If you want to work toward a grade, your lessons build naturally toward it: we're Trinity College London's main Rock & Pop exam centre in London, and a registered Rockschool exam centre.
A warm-up before every lesson
A short solo warm-up in the teaching room before each lesson: the room is yours while your tutor takes a short break, so you can settle in with nobody watching.
And we're open all year round, so your learning never has to stop.
