"My drum lessons are often the motivation to make it through each week. My instructor is not just a teacher, he has become a friend and mentor as well. Drumming is a source of confidence and positive energy that applies to every aspect of my life."

-David, (age 16) Paso Robles


"I have 2 boys in the [Bucketeers] class and they both love it!  Thanks for a great program." 
-Kristine Maas, San Luis Obispo

 

"The Bucket Busters is the BEST THING that has ever happened to [my son]!  I cannot thank you, Steve and Micah enough for all of the support you have given [him] through the years. [He] has had several obstacles to overcome and has made progress and has come a long way. I know that he wouldn’t have gotten this far if it wasn’t for his drumming – both lessons [at Music Motive] and Bucket Busters. Thank you!
Sincerely and from the heart,"
[Grateful Mom of a scholarship student] in San Luis Obispo

Music is such an important factor in your child's life - it keeps them focused, well rounded and they get to rock out. The neighbors are very pleased with Runar's progress too!"

-Laura Samuel, Los Osos

-Carrie Sanders, Paso Robles

 

"Music Motive is an excellent place for children to learn a love for music. I have a son (8) and daughter (13) learning to play the drums there. Both are learning at their own pace in a style that fits their individual personalities. The teachers are knowledgeable, gracious, and great percussionist!"
