UKULELE LESSONS
Want to play that latest, cool song you’ve heard, but aren’t sure of what you’re doing? Love the idea that you can get started for less than a $75 instrument investment cost and you can take it virtually EVERYWHERE? Does the idea of playing with others within two weeks sound like fun? Then you are ready to begin your journey into Ukulele!
Ukulele lessons are provided as a group class that meets weekly for 30 minutes. We learn chords, theory, strum patterns, technique, and collaborative playing while exploring classics, current tunes, and scales. Being in a group class is not only fun, but it is SO motivating and provides a great amount of accountability!
Ukulele lessons are for ages 9+ and adults. We have LOTS of teens and adults who love to learn Ukulele!
SPRING SINGERS CHOIR
Are you looking for a homeschool choir that does not detract a whole day of school from your weekly schedule? Is your child looking for music that is eclectic and fun? Maybe you are looking for a musical education that is clearly communicated, simplistically done, but does not require expensive formal attire?
Then you have found the right choir.
Our music director has been teaching music privately since 2007. Our rehearsals combine technology and music education in a fun, positive environment. We learn sight-singing, solfege, proper technique, harmonies, and mainly, teamwork. Every student really enjoys choir rehearsals!
Spring Singers, while simple in our approach, just DOES BIG THINGS. Our main objective is to perform for the special needs and the seniors of our community. We want our singers and our audiences to feel special and remember that they are valued. We do not charge for our performances and do not require you to volunteer. If you feel the spirit of giving, by all means, do it, but it is not required.
Children’s Choir is for ages 6 - 11. Teen choir is age 12 - 18. Rehearsals occur once a week on Tuesday afternoons.
Required Materials: Students need only to bring a positive attitude and a spillproof water bottle to rehearsals. At home, they will need internet access and a listening device, plus printer, if they’d like to print the music.
Practice Expectations: Children’s choir members are required to practice 30 minutes a week, while Teens are required to practice 60 minutes a week. All music & movements must be memorized.

PIANO LESSONS
Have you had an experience with piano lessons that was not the right fit? Maybe lessons were too regimented or high pressure? Or maybe piano lessons are something that you have always wanted to do but never did? Finding and staying with the right teacher is one of the MOST important decisions in your musical journey that you will ever make.
Our students love to learn, want to progress, and they put in the work that is needed to move forward. All of our lessons focus on setting goals within an environment of PATIENCE, FUN and LOVE for music. Students are not asked to enter festivals, contests, take exams or participate in high pressure performances. We focus on having fun, communicating weekly progress & goals and sharing our gift of music with others.
Students learn state-based music theory, so they can read and write music (why pay for lessons if you are not getting this?!). We spend time composing music, learning by ear, and use project-based learning to work on our favorite repertoire like gaming music, musicals, broadway tunes, and classical music. We use LOTS of tools in class to reinforce concepts.
Piano lessons are available for beginner through early advanced, beginning age 6 and older. (Online lessons require an adult attendance for ages 9 & under.) Lessons occur once a week.
Required Materials: Students must have access to a fully functional and well-tuned piano or full-sized weighted keyboard or digital piano. Students should bring their music method books and repertoire to each lesson. They should also have a working printer.
Practice Expectations: A student’s progress is determined by consistent practice, not by simply attending lessons. Ideally, students should practice at least 4 days a week. The quality of the practice should be focused and long enough to hit the goals we create during each lesson.
VOICE LESSONS
Are you wanting to sing with more control and volume? Is singing a personal skill you’ve always wanted to improve or maybe you have a solo or an audition you need to prepare for? Maybe you are a seasoned vocalist, but are struggling with vocal changes or have reached a roadblock in your performances. Then you have found a teacher who can help you!
I enjoy teaching a variety of genres including musical theatre, contemporary, classical, and pop/rock. Our lessons will focus on developing proper breathing, resonance, and tone production, in addition to performance style and interpretation.
My years of experience performing as a soloist and directing musicals for children’s productions, aids in my ability to assist students to overcome audition and performance challenges. Because I have been an audition judge as well as a stage performer, I have an insider view of what directors are looking for.
For prospective students, reading music or having experience playing another instrument is helpful, preferably piano, but it is not required.
Voice lessons are available for ages 12 and older. Students should have access to an acoustic piano or small keyboard for practice purposes, or be prepared to invest a small monthly amount in an app subscription. Lessons occur once a week.
Suggested Materials: Voice students must bring their current music repertoire and a bottle of water to each lesson. Students should also have a working printer.
Practice Expectations: Voice students are expected to practice enough to reach their lesson goals each week. Practice should focus on both vocalises and repertoire.
STEAM SUMMER CAMPS
Our summer camps include choir camp, robotics camp, and ukulele camps! Choir and Ukulele are a chance to learn new songs for the coming year, try out choir for a few days, and are all local day camps.
Robotics camps are SOOOOO much fun that your child will not even realize they are learning! We use a combination of Lego Education curriculum, NASA EARLY Challenge, and some of our seasoned coach’s own learning projects. The students team up, use their creative-problem solving abilities to follow rules (or figure out what the rules are NOT), and they have creative input in the design process to test out their ideas and LEARN from solving any problems. By the last day of camp, they are experiencing a full, mock tournament in a robotics mini-competition.
Robotics campers are 7 & up and must have a kind, teamwork-oriented attitude.
Camp lasts for 3 hours straight, for 3 days. We focus for a long time, so sometimes it can be intense fun.
We provide 3 teachers for no more than 8 students. All of our teachers are experienced in EARLY robotics for many years and are great mentors.
Students will have some homework the first evening. Reading & writing fluency is not required, but helpful.
