All Ages Welcome!
Monthly enrollment is $60 for 4 weeks of lessons. Beginning students also have to purchase the
lesson book provided.
Guitar classes are 55 minutes long, individual lessons are 25 minutes long. We also allow 5
minutes for set up and instrument tuning each lesson.
Musical styles taught include classical, country, and rock for both guitar and piano. In
addition, students can learn music theory and songwriting. Guitar students can also study
fingerstyle methods.
To make the most of your lesson time:
1) Please have your guitar tuned before class to save time.
2) Arrive on-time.
3) Quickly set up your music stand and book and begin your fret exercises.
To make advancement in this course, those who sign up need to make a personal commitment
to:
1) practice regularly at home
2) make all lessons (see Missed Lesson Policy below)
3) stick with the program through the spring recital.
What Do I Need to Bring?
1) Guitar and amp if it's electric
2) Course book
3) Assignment book
4) Folder for handouts
5) Music stand and footstool
6) Enrollment fee at the first lesson of each month
Policy on Missed Lessons
Learning to play music is a rewarding investment of time and money. The key word here is
"investment". To achieve the best results, lessons need to be attended each week.
Missed lessons will not be refunded.
For best results, we suggest parents and students commit to the course through the recital.
(For more information on recitals, please see the Rock N' Roll Boot Camp page). Parents need
to weigh this against other obligations (sports, church, etc.) to see if they can realistically have
their children make weekly lessons and have practice time at home.
If there is an emergency, please notify us as soon as possible. Outside of emergencies, if a
student misses one lesson without contacting us, or misses two lessons in a month, he or she
will be dismissed from the class. A $15 re-enrollment fee will be applied if the student
re-enrolls later.
