Private lessons are currently full.

I teach a limited number of private students so each one gets real attention, and every slot is taken right now. If you'd like a spot when one opens, add your name below. I'll reach out the moment something frees up, usually at a term change. While you wait, get started now by joining a group class!

While You Wait: Try Group Classes

Group classes are open, and honestly, they're a great place to start!

Students get more time at the instrument than they'd expect, learn alongside kids at the same level, more games movement and fun, and it costs about the same as a private lesson for 50% longer class time.

Fall sessions are enrolling now in piano, violin, and guitar. And, you can drop in and try a class for free before committing!
