Music & Dance Academy

This is a great school. My daughter has been with them for over 8 years now. Their instructors are very skilled and love to teach. They are my daughter's good friends. I have been constantly surprised by my daughter's improvement in piano. I also like the atmosphere in the academy. They have lots of social activities and stage performances in libraries, churches and nursing homes. Those are very helpful for kids to develop their performance skills on stage. Strongly recommended.

I have been taking piano lessons at the Music & Dance Academy for over eight years and look forward to many more. My personal experience with the Academy is excellent. The owner is a highly trained pianist and amazing teacher overall. She challenges her students and staff to equally excel with exceptional patience and seasoned guidance.
Piano lessons at the Music & Dance Academy have enhanced my quality of life in many ways. My focus and ability to concentrate on complex material has dramatically improved from day one. Music lessons have increased my ability to focus while improving my dexterity. After practicing piano, I always feel more relaxed and proud of my accomplishments. There is no question, it's such a positive addition to your life.

This is a simple storefront with a lobby, four music rooms, a large dance studio, and an additional studio for aerobics & yoga with gymnastic mats on the floor. I take my three and half year old granddaughter here for Angelina Ballerina dance classes. Miss Marion, her instructor, is very experienced and a pleasure to work with. The kids, eight in her class, just love her. They have a camera in the studio so you can watch the kids dancing on a large screen TV. The cost is reasonable for a 45 minute session each week for a whole school year. There will be a recital at the end of the year. The receptionist is very friendly and helpful. We are completely satisfied, so far, with everything. Our granddaughter loves coming here and looks forward to dance class each week.

We may take a music class too in the next couple of weeks. A basic music course for the 4-5 yr olds is some keyboards, some singing, and some other stuff.

Wonderful teachers. My daughter looks forward to going to both of her classes each week. The classes have helped her confidence. I highly recommend any child taking lessons.

My daughter has been taking guitar lessons for over 2 years. She started when she was 5 years old. Her instructors name is Michael and he's been working with kids forever. My daughter went from simple single string pluck songs to complex multi string pieces in no time. Her instructor makes playing in front of audiences a priority, which has helped her self-confidence and her ability to perform. The prices are very reasonable. I don't know about everyone, but when I pay for lessons I want to see results. I want to see noticeable improvement in my child's ability to play the instrument. If that's what you're after, this is the place!

My family has been with the Music and Dance Academy for close to five years now, and it is easy to envision that we'll be there for at least another five. The office staff is friendly and professional, and the teachers are highly qualified and experienced. My wife is taking classical guitar lessons, and my son started piano under the Suzuki method when he was six years old (with me as the designated parent). It has been our experience that the instructors are quite competent at tailoring the lessons to the individual student, whether child or adult. For example, from the beginning, my son's instructor supplemented the Suzuki material with regular sight-reading and basic theory-building activities, which has given him a solid musical foundation. Now almost eleven, my son has significantly developed his ability to play the keyboard - with feeling and with appropriate technique. And his memory is now pretty sharp, too, which helps him quite a bit at school. And it hasn't taken any herculean effort - just a modest amount of daily practice. Thanks to our positive experience at the Music and Dance Academy, music is as much a part of our daily life as is reading. --Paul B.
