We’ve had such a wonderful experience at this music school! Both of my boys really enjoyed their lessons, and we were very happy with their teachers, Ms. Elizabeth and Ms. Jessica.

Ms. Elizabeth is very patient, attentive, and encouraging. She always made my son feel comfortable and helped him stay engaged and confident during his lessons.

Ms. Jessica is warm, kind, and encouraging, and she made learning music fun and enjoyable for my other son. He always looked forward to his lessons with her.

We’re taking a break for now because of our boys’ busy school and extracurricular schedules, but we’re truly grateful for the wonderful experience they had here. We would definitely recommend this school and both teachers to other families! ❤️

My daughter has been taking drum lessons for 3 months now and it's been amazing. Her primary teacher is Lucas but she has had a substitute when he's not available. School is very communicative and detailed with changes; how long and what options we have. The front desk staff are helpful with making schedule adjustments since the website isn't as easy to navigate; you have to actively commit to canceling a class before you can reschedule. Overall, great school for kids wanting to get introduced to playing musical instruments.

PMA has been excellent for my 5 year old who is taking drum lessons. Its a very professional, yet relaxed and friendly environment. The front of house is very organized and friendly as well. Gibb is our son's instructor and he has been so good at working with a 5 year old. He makes the lessons kid friendly and interesting, and knows how to keep his attention which can be hard with such a young child. I would highly recommend.

My son has had drum lessons with Mr Lucas. The school is easy to work with. My son has enjoyed his lessons and looks forward to his lesson after each session.

Great music school and teachers. I'm an adult taking lessons for the first time and feel very comfortable doing so. The recitals are well done and they focus on making the students feel at ease.
