A proven record of excellence
Every year, aspiring musicians start their own studios and a year or two later they close it, “change careers” or move away. Some independent teachers do not show up for their lessons and many enroll students at the wrong age just for “an extra income”. Others do not teach music notation or provide consistency at all. The worst is that parents are usually the victims, choosing the “nice guy that comes to our house” or “the lady that lives down the street” without being able to check their background, information and verify degrees and experience. We know music and music is what we do. Therefore, we know if a teacher knows how to teach notation or not, etc. Dedicated Music Teaching Staff.
A comfortable and spacious waiting room
Instead of waiting in a music retail store with no seats and feeling the pressure to purchase something, our families and students enjoy our spacious and professional waiting room with comfortable chairs. You can relax, work on your computer or even watch a lesson! A comfortable waiting room for parents and family members, Or if you prefer you can sit in on their lesson anytime you like (for private students).

Opportunities for performances & recitals
Recitals: Every May & December, our students perform in our recitals. We have so many students choosing to participate, that we have to rent a hotel conference room to host our recitals.
