Sign up on the calendar below for a free trial lesson!
At this brief meeting, we can discuss further your goals for lessons, and address any questions you may have.
The purpose of a trial lesson is to meet one another, and begin learning about each others’ musical and personalities. Often during a trial lesson, if the student is not a beginner, the student will be asked to play something to gauge ability level. If the student is a beginner, a short lesson will be taught to begin to understand the student’s unique learning style.
If student taking trial lesson is under the age of 18, parent/guardian must be present for this brief 20-30 minute meeting.
