Tucked into the heart of Barrio Viejo, where adobe walls hum with history and the streets still echo with the voices of generations, Barrio Drum School was born from one simple belief: music brings people together.

Founded by Dr. Christopher Ozorio—a former U.S. Marine Corps musician, lifelong drummer, and proud alumnus of The University of Arizona, Long Island University, and Liberty University—this school is more than just a place to learn the drum set. It’s a dynamic community where students connect, perform, and improve!

At Barrio Drum School, lessons aren’t just about technique. They’re about family, interaction, and finding joy in music. Whether you’re 7 or 77, new to drumming or coming back to it after years, this is a place where every student is part of something bigger—something rooted, real, and full of rhythm.

We play, we laugh, we listen—and we grow together, one meeting at a time.
