Amazing school, highly recommend! My kiddo has been doing private piano lessons for the last two months. Elan is fantastic! The owner John has been super great with communication. The website is very easy to use and rescheduling a class if you need to is easy to do on-line. Parking is never an issue. This place is truly a gem, great instructors who are passionate and very knowledgeable (most if not all know how to play multiple instruments) and great vibes!

Really great school, well organized and good instructors. My 6 year old enjoys his drum lessons and learns something new every week. Convenient online scheduling options and affordable prices. This has to be one of the best music schools in the NW for kids.
