Programs that fit your school.
Every program is built around your students, your space, and your schedule. We handle the instruction — you see the results.
Guitar & Bass
The backbone of every band. Students learn chords, rhythm, and real songs from session one. Acoustic and electric. All experience levels.
Ukulele
Fast to learn, impossible to put down. Perfect for younger students — groups are playing together within weeks, not months.

Questions from schools.
Do you come to us or do students come to you?
Both. We can run programs at your school, or students can take private lessons at our shop at 316 East 84th Street.
What grades do you work with?
Kindergarten through 8th grade. We adjust curriculum and pace based on age group and experience level.
Do students need instruments?
No. We bring instruments for in-school programs. At the shop, we have instruments available in the studio.
How does pricing work?
Pricing depends on program type, group size, frequency, and location. Fill out the form and we’ll send a proposal for your school.
How quickly can a program start?
Typically 2–3 weeks after finalizing details. We’re flexible around school calendars and after-school schedules.
