Homeschool Music Field Trips

Piano Lab (Ages 5 to 18)
In the Piano Lab, we teach beginner concepts and allow time for students to play a handful of songs, compose their own songs, and play a piano-related game at the end of class. With the material of the class, we can host a wide age-range of students.
Ukulele (Ages 7 to 18)
For Ukuleles, we go over beginner concepts and allow time for student to play a handful of well-known songs, work on picking and writing their own tunes, and play a music-related game at the end of class. With the material of the class, we can start around age 7 and up.

During the class, students will play a variety of instruments in a group with a rock band feel and we will also play music-related games and have some worksheets involved with the class as well!
Rock Band (Ages 11-18)
Rock Band is much like Little Jammers, but with big kid instruments! With Rock Band, we work with students on Guitar, Bass Guitar, Keyboard, and Drums, learn a couple familiar songs, and work on writing our own tune!

Homeschool Classes FAQ
Below are some answers to questions we often receive for our Homeschool Classes:
How much are your classes and how do I pay
Our classes are charged monthly and we do offer a sibling/multi-student rate as well. Those are:
$36 per month for 1 student
$30 per month for siblings.
There is also a one-time $10 registration fee per student, or $25 for families with 3 or more students.
You will be invoiced one week prior to the following month. You can pay by ACH transfer, debit/credit card, cash, check, or Venmo.
Is everything included in the price or do I have to supply some things?
For the most part, we will supply everything the kids will need for the classes! The only exception to this is when our Late Elementary class gets into Recorders, students will need one of their own. For this, we can supply the recorder for an extra charge, or you can supply your own.
In terms of our other instrument units such as Ukulele and Guitar, we will supply those instruments, or students are welcome to bring their own. For the Piano unit, we will hold class in our Piano lab.
If we have to skip a week or miss a class, are make-up classes available?
If you find you have to miss a week or a certain day, just let us know and depending on space, your child(ren) can join a different day of class for that week.
Can we get a free trial homeschool class?
If you find a time that we offer that works for you, we'd invite you in to try a class before enrollment! Just contact us and let us know when you'd like to come in and we'll add you to the list and get you ready to come in!
