Yes—core literacy is built in. In NoteLab and MusicPro, we teach students how to read music, count rhythm, build chords, and play together. We also teach them how to practice at home effectively, so progress doesn’t stop when class ends.

MusicPro ($189/mo) includes up to 40 sixty-minute classes per year, plus four live shows at professional venues. That means structured lessons and real stage experience—a combination rarely included in private lessons.

No. Every class is capped at 4–8 Students and has 2 Teachers in the room at all times. This ensures individual attention and ensemble learning.

Our method (similar to Piano Express) combines direct teaching, short independent practice time in class, and teacher support when students get stuck. This teaches kids how to practice while ensuring they get one-on-one help when needed.

NoteLab ($149/mo) includes weekly classes, evaluations, and a semester-end showcase—so parents can see clear growth.

Yes. NoteLab students perform in two shows each year—one at Island Music School, and one end-of-year concert at either the Murray Nelson Center or Coral Shores High School. MusicPro students, our flagship program, perform in four shows at real-world venues like Founders Park Amphitheater, Bud N’ Mary’s Marina, Art Walk in Islamorada, and new stages in Key West and Miami.

No. Beginners thrive in NoteLab, where the focus is on literacy and practice skills. They learn the basics in a supportive group, then transition smoothly into MusicPro for performance.

Private lessons are available for targeted goals such as audition preparation, technical corrections, or accelerated solo study. Many families combine them with group lessons for maximum benefit.

Yes. KinderBeats ($99/mo) is a weekly 45-minute class with parent participation, designed specifically for ages 0–5.

Our instructors are experienced performers and educators. With two teachers in every class, students receive more support and guidance than at most music schools.

Yes. We are a Step Up for Students Direct Provider and also offer evaluations and scholarship pathways.

Yes. Students need their own instrument at home to practice. This ensures that what we teach in class translates into steady growth.

Better Practice is our practice-tracking app. It tracks data, sends assignments directly from teacher to student, and enables communication between teachers, parents, and students. The app also includes gamified features that make practice more exciting, turning assignments into competitions and rewards. This motivates consistent practice and makes acceleration much more likely.

Small-group (NoteLab/MusicPro): Capped at 4–8 students with 2 teachers, ideal for literacy, ensemble skills, and stage time.

Private lessons: Best for focused goals and personal coaching.
