Our StaffMEET YOUR INSTRUCTORS
Let’s make music lessons one of the best parts of your week!
How do we do this? It starts with talent – and then magic happens with a bit of personality. Each of our instructors bring years of experience and musical mastery to the table, but they also bring their own passions and personality to engage with students in a way that keeps them coming back for more. Our ability to provide learning experiences that connect with each unique student is part of the combination that sets our teaching environment apart.
