This place is Magic ✨️ Me and a group of mom friends were traveling with our 6 kiddos and reached out to Bongo Boy. Lisa, who was so helpful, organized a little class for our group on our last day visiting Indy. Parents and kiddos sat in a circle, learned rhythms, danced, laughed and got creative for an hour. What a fun and unique session that brought us together as a group! I highly recommend you visit Bongo Boy and experience it for yourself. We all thought Lisa's class was the highlight of our trip!

Went to the drum circle for the first time, fun experience, and the the owners are very friendly. Plenty of drums to use, and separate ones to purchase also. The place is big with many training or teaching rooms, I didn’t have much time to really check it out.

Excellent music school! My son has lessons with Ben. He has been a great mentors for my son. He structures lessons around his interest to teach the appropriate skills, he assists him in structuring reasonable goals for improvement and he always exudes a passion for music that engages my son in exploring new possibilities. It's a bit of a drive for us but completely worth the education and connections.

My daughter took music production lessons with Ed. She learned so much! Happy to say she was accepted to every university she applied to, including her top choice: Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. Only 15 kids are accepted into the Sound and Audio Engineering program each year and she got in!! They were impressed with the portfolio she submitted, part of which was created in Ed’s studio. But that’s not all… Jacobs offered her several scholarships, so her lessons with Ed have really paid off. Thanks, Ed!

Went as a group for the drum circle. The staff was super cool and friendly. We had a blast drumming with the facilitator. He made it very easy to get into a groove. Highly recommend. "1, 2, back to the groove!" 😎
