Hit Like a Girl

Quest Music Academy is excited to announce a new summer program titled Hit Like A Girl. The program is open to young female drum students who are looking to further their knowledge on the drum set and the world of drumming. 

This workshop is run by QMA drum instructor Brooke Boileau. Having grown up seeing almost exclusively men playing the drums, and hearing about one famous male drummer after the next, Brooke desires to create a space for other girls to feel empowered and to see that drumming is not just a boys club.

Each of the 4 classes in this course will focus on a different element of the drumming and percussion world, with an emphasis on women’s contributions. Students will learn about the women paving the way through the rock drum set world, the classical percussion field, and even the women making waves in their own community. Not to mention, there is a whole class looking at all-female rock and punk bands. Students will also get plenty of opportunity to play and learn new techniques throughout the course.
