Looking for a fun hobby that helps add a little more fulfillment to your downtime? While many think that music lessons are “just for kids”, this couldn’t be further from the truth! Learning is for everyone, and there’s no cut-off age for broadening your horizons.

At Musicworks Canada, there’s nothing we love more than helping students of all ages and experience levels try something new and find their passion for music. Our online classes make it easier than ever to learn how to play piano, guitar, and even the drums from the comfort of your own home.

Here’s why online music lessons might be the creative spark you’ve been looking for in 2025!

Learn at Your Own Pace

Life gets busy these days, with work, family, chores and other commitments often eating away at valuable personal time. Music lessons help to restore balance by giving you the flexibility to learn at your own pace, without the added pressure of trying to commute or keep up with a group. Whether you want to learn how to pound out your favourite rock songs on the drums in your spare time or want to unleash your inner Mariah, our instructors are here to help you achieve your goals and enjoy the learning experience!

Convenience Right from Your Living Room

One of the biggest benefits of online lessons is convenience. For adults, commuting to and from classes can often be a challenge, and the stress of trying to make it after work, fit in dinner, and do the rest of your daily tasks can take away some of the excitement of learning. Online lessons remove unnecessary stress for those who are short on time and keep learning accessible. All you need is your instrument and a reliable internet connection, and you’re ready to go!

Professional Instruction Customized for Adults

Adults sometimes shy away from tackling new lessons because they’re worried that it’s “too hard” to learn when you’re older. While yes, adults do learn differently than our younger counterparts, that doesn’t mean that it’s impossible! At Musicworks, we know how to tailor our lessons to the unique needs and development of adult students, making it easy for you to achieve and continue to excel over time.

Whether you’re diving into drums for the first time or returning to an instrument you played years ago, our online lessons provide personalized, real-time guidance that works perfectly for your learning style.

Build Confidence and Creativity

Playing music isn’t just about hitting the right notes—it’s about expressing yourself and building confidence. Just like learning any new skill, the more you practice and dedicate yourself, the more you gain and the stronger your confidence becomes. And hey, who couldn’t stand to have a few more “wins”?!

Online Drum Lessons: A Surprisingly Fun (and Stress-Relieving) Choice

When most people think of online music lessons, they usually think of “standard” instruments like the guitar, piano or vocals. While these are definitely popular options, you may be surprised that you can even learn how to play the drums at home! With modern electronic kits readily available (and that make far less noise than traditional sets), online drum lessons offer plenty of benefits, including:

• Low Barrier to Entry: You don’t need a full drum kit to get started. A practice pad and sticks are all you need to begin learning rhythms and techniques.
• Physical and Mental Benefits: Drumming gives your brain and body a great workout and is fantastic for improving coordination and focus while relaxing you by releasing endorphins.
• Fun and Interactive Lessons: Musicworks’ instructors make each session dynamic and engaging, helping you build confidence and rhythm at your own pace!Whether you want to jam out to your favourite rock songs or find your zen with smoother rhythms, online drum lessons are always a fun and rewarding choice.
