To get started please visit our free trial page and we will then set you up on a free trial lesson.

What is necessary for future lessons are the following:

1. Your instrument unless you are taking lessons where the instrument is present (Piano, Drumset, etc) If you are taking guitar lessons please bring your guitar. If you are a drummer please bring your drumsticks.
2. Folder
3. Notebook

In the beginning, you can totally learn how to play and practice using just sticks and a practice pad. Eventually, it would help your learning process if you are able to acquire or have access to some time of acoustic, electric, or practice pad drum set up.

To help you with picking the best equipment for your budget and needs we have partnered with Skips Music (a local music store) and placed some items in our store that we recommend. If you need help picking the right items please talk to your instructor and he or she can further help you with this question.

We will help you pick an instructor that best fits the needs of the student. How you can help us is by including some info about the student in your email to us like:

• Age
• Music Experience/ Level
• Musical Interests/ Styles
• Musical Goals
• Other helpful information about the student.

We like for you to stay with one instructor for consecutive lessons, but if you would eventually like to try out other instructors that is totally an option. All you need to do is let us know, either Music Lab location owner or let your instructor know and we will have you transition to one of our other instructors and continue furthering your education and journey at The Music Lab.

All of our payments are made online. We have a manual payment option if you are doing just a few lessons at a time or we have an autopay option if you are doing consecutive lessons.

Autopay lessons can be canceled with a 30-day cancelation notice.

Please email us,  talk to your location owner or your instructor. You can also log into your account and update your card in that system.

Unfortunately, we do not offer space for rent.

The Music Lab must be notified of the student’s inability to attend a lesson at least 24 hours in advance, otherwise no refund or make-up will be granted. Make-ups are only guaranteed if scheduled within 1 week of the student’s request.

Outside of the make-up policy mentioned above, since we have a specific lesson time slot reserved for each student and have a legal obligation to pay the instructor for that reserved slot, payment must be made regardless of attendance. This includes illness, vacations, etc…

The Music Lab will be closed for a weeklong break 4 times/year. These weeks will be held on:

• Easter week (Spring Break)
• 4th of July week
• Thanksgiving week
• Christmas week.

This will still give each student 48 lessons/year due to the 5th lesson/month that occurs 4 times/year.

The Music Lab will make every effort to keep a student with the same instructor. However, the student (by signing up) agrees that The Music Lab has the discretion to reassign a student to a different instructor as needed. The student may also request to switch to a different instructor for any reason and The Music Lab will make every effort to accommodate the student’s request. Also on occasion instructors might have days when they are not able to make a lesson at that point they will provide a substitute, offer a refund for that lesson, or do a makeup lesson.

Although not guaranteed, the music lab usually does recitals twice a year, once in the spring and once in the winter. Check out our social media pages to see highlights from recent recitals!
