Group Classes for Children
About our Remote Classes
We will be rolling out new classes for beginners in early February. As always, we group children of similar ages and levels together; but this spring the classes will be super small, with only two or three students. This means that your child can enjoy the virtual company of their peers over Zoom but still get a lot of individualized attention from their teacher! When we're not using our fingers to play piano, we're crossing them in the hopes that we'll be able to resume small in-person classes later this spring!
About Our Return to In-Person Classes
We are so excited about our successful transition back to in-person classes! There's nothing like making music together in the same room! This summer we will be offering beginning and continuing classes with a maximum class size of three students. This means that your child can enjoy the fun of a group class but still get a lot of individualized attention from their teacher! Learn more about what we're doing at The Music Room to stay safe as we emerge from the pandemic.
