FAQs
How does it work?
We proudly offer simple, lesson-based pricing.
Families are billed per lesson. Performances and special events are optional, though highly encouraged, and offered separately. Once you join the academy (by signing up for lessons), you will hear about these events and how to sign up through our communication channels (email, occasional texting, and Instagram).
Group classes (like Baby & Me and Musical Beginnings) are billed monthly.

What ages do you teach?
We teach all ages! From our playful Baby & Me classes to private lessons for toddlers, kids, teens, and even seasoned adults, we believe it’s never too early—or too late—to fall in love with music.
Where are you located?
The majority of our teachers come directly to you for in-home private lessons. We serve several cities in the Conejo Valley (TO, Westlake, Oak Park, Newbury, Simi Valley, Moorpark, Agoura Hills) and surrounding areas (including Malibu, Camarillo, and Ventura), and have recently expanded to Santa Barbara.
For our Conejo Valley families, we have a few teachers who teach out of their homes. If you have a preference, please let us know.
For group classes and performances, we predominately partner with Calvary Community Church in Westlake Village to bring you a premium experience. We also work with other local theaters, schools, and businesses for our in-person events.
If you don’t see your city listed, please give us a call! We may be able to come to you.
