Instrument Policy

You should be able to practice on an instrument that facilitates progress.

Stringed instruments should be fitted to you and upgraded as you grow.

Pianos should be acoustic. Keyboards should be full sized with weighted keys in order to develop proper technique.

The director and instructors are happy to recommend dealers for new, used or rental instruments.

Make Up Policy

We consider your private lesson time a standing appointment. 

Please provide 24 hour notice if you are unable to make your scheduled lesson time. If you wake up ill on the morning of your lesson please CALL THE INSTRUCTOR before 9 am.

If a instructor has to miss a lesson, it will be made up. If the instructor misses other lessons, credit will be issued to your account.

Weather Cancellation policy
