To get started please visit our free trial page and enter your information for a free trial lesson.

For your first lesson, all we need is for you to be ready to embark on this new musical journey with us. If you would like to bring anything else you are more than welcome to do so.

What is necessary for future lessons are the following:

1. Your instrument (unless you are taking lessons where the instrument is present, like piano or drums). If you are taking guitar lessons please bring your guitar if you can. We have guitars in the studio for you to use if you don’t have one yet or forget yours at home.
2. Folder
3. Notebook

In the beginning, you can 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 kind of acoustic, electric, or practice pad drum set up. Talk to your instructor for more details.

If you need help picking the right items please talk to your instructor and they can further help you with this question. We also rent guitars, keyboards, and drums. Please see the ‘Rentals’ tab for more info.

We will help you pick an instructor that best fits the needs of the student. How you can help us to choose one for you is by including some info about the student in your trial lesson form or email to us the following info:

• 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 absolutely an option. All you need to do is let either the Music Lab location owner or your instructor know and we will have you transition to one of our other instructors and continue furthering your education and journey at Music Lab.

All of our payments are made online via our online portal that you will be set up with at sign-up. 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.

You can log into your account and update your card in the online portal that we set you up with at sign-up.

Unfortunately, we do not offer space for rent.

To cancel a lesson, simply call, email, or text us to notify us of the absence. To be eligible for a make-up or refund for the quarter, the notice must be made 24 hours in advance.

Outside of the make-up policy where we allow one make-up or refund per quarter(4 per year), 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, car breakdowns, etc.

Music Lab will be closed for a weeklong break 4 times per 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.

Music Lab will make every effort to keep a student with the same instructor. However, the student (by signing up) agrees that 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 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 and at which point they will provide a substitute, offer a refund for that lesson, or do a makeup lesson.

Although not guaranteed, Music Lab usually does recitals twice a year, once in the spring and once in the winter. Check out our social media pages and YouTube to see highlights from recent recitals! No one puts on better recitals than we do!
