Held in our bright and inspiring upstairs music room, each session gives students the chance to explore rhythm, melody, and performance skills in an encouraging space.

About Group Session
Group music lessons provide a collaborative learning environment where students grow alongside peers of similar age or level. This format encourages listening skills, teamwork, steady pacing, and comfort performing in front of others. The best option depends on your child’s personality, learning needs, and comfort level. Group lessons create a supportive community and a fun shared experience, while individual lessons provide concentrated support and more customized progression. Some families choose to begin in a group setting and later transition to individual lessons as skills and confidence grow.
