STUDIO PATHWAYS
After one initial, commitment-free lesson, all individual lessons are booked in packages of four. Consider your participation in the studio as a membership, where you are guaranteed four lessons per month.
How Our Studio Pathways Work
All new beginner students start on our Studio Track to build strong foundational skills in a supportive, low-pressure environment. As students grow in technique, confidence, and commitment, they are invited to advance into our Performance Track and ultimately our high-level Artist Track.
New Students: Start by booking a trial lesson. Following your session, we will consult on your goals—beginners will begin on the Studio Track, while experienced musicians will be evaluated for direct placement on the Performance or Artist Track.
