Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
In most cases, lessons can start as early as one week after registration.
Private Lessons are available Monday – Friday 9AM – 9PM & Saturday 9AM – 2PM. You can see what's currently available on the registration page.
Our Private Lessons are one-on-one sessions between the student and the instructor. Certain programs, like our Musical Safari Programs and the Musical Theatre Program, have multiple students in the same class.
We work with students of all ages! We have our Musical Safari program for students aged 0-4, and private lessons for students ages 4-100+.
Private Lessons and Group Programs are held on a weekly basis. We do not operate on holidays/holiday weeks, and these dates are not included in the fees.
Private Lessons start at 30 minutes long. Most new students will start with this length.
Most Group Programs are also 30 minutes long. Certain programs for older students, such as the QSM Band, will run longer.
It takes most students 4-5 lessons to decide whether or not they want to continue.
We offer the opportunity for monthly payments, or a one-time annual payment.
Because of this arrangement, you may cancel after the first month if you don't feel things are working out. We do not offer trial lessons.
We ask that you register only if you intend to take lessons for the entire school year, for the sake of the student's development and respecting the instructor's time.
Most students may begin private lessons on the piano or drums at age 5. In certain cases, children further along in their development may start before then.
For those under the age of 5, we have our fun Musical Safari Program – a group music program which immerses the child in music and prepares them for private lessons!
We offer lessons in-person, online, and even offer lessons at your home. Please contact us for a quote if you would like at-home lessons.
