   7DC has been a second home and family for me. It is not only a place to practice and learn music, it is also a community that stems out into different events such as Flashband.
– Héctor C

   7DrumCity is Heaven for drummers and musicians of all ages & levels here in DC. They also have excellent practice rooms and the staff is amazing... A real gem that encourages musicians to play with other people and breathe live music. We're lucky to have such a place in DC!

​   I just recently became a student at 7DrumCity learning how to play the drums and it's been a blast so far! My onboarding process was smooth, I discussed what I was looking for and my interests... this is my first experience learning a new instrument as an adult and I look forward to meeting more people in this great community!
​- Angela R

   As a working drummer of almost 30 years, I love the fact that I do not have to bring any gear aside from my stick bag. You can adjust all of the kits to your specifications so that maximum playability can be obtained. The rooms are soundproofed so well that you can play as loud as you want... A special place indeed.
