Guitar Lessons
Students taking guitar lessons can study a variety of musical styles, such as rock, jazz, classical, country, and bluegrass. Early on, students can expect to work on some simple chords, and apply them to some simple songs. As soon as the student is ready, they will begin playing along to recordings by their favorite artists, which we find to be highly motivational. Guitar students will also learn to read standard musical notation from a method book, which will give them a solid foundation in theory to be applied to any musical style they wish. Students are encouraged to bring their favorite CD’s or their iPod to lessons.

Flute, Saxophone, Clarinet Lessons
Students taking lessons on a woodwind instrument are most likely interested in participating in their school band. Private, one-on-one lessons, can help students prepare for a band audition, or give current band students some extra help to get ahead, or simply further their skills for more challenging band repertoire. Our teachers have had years of experience playing in various bands on the college and professional level.
Ukulele Lessons
The ukulele is a great starter instrument for young children. Its small size makes it easy to handle, and its easily affordable price make it a hit with parents. Students can eventually transition over to guitar if they choose, as the tuning relationship is the same.
