We are so excited to announce that we now have a Simply Music piano program for young children!  This amazing program teaches children to play the piano through improvisation and story telling.  Does it sound intriguing?   Come to a Free Introductory Session on Saturday, January 14 at 10:00 a.m. or Wednesday and Saturday, February 4 at 10:30 a.m. These sessions are just 30  minutes long and will introduce you to the concepts that students learn and the amazing way they learn to discover their musicianship.  Please RSVP to 681 3979

We are pleased to announce that we are going to offering a new music program for children ages newborn to 4 years old. Robin will be teaching the "Babies Class", the Ones and Twos and the Toddler Class on Tuesday mornings beginning on September 26. More information is coming soon about this progressive, developmentally appropriate music class.

We are very pleased to announce the arrival of two new teachers this fall.  First, Hip Hop classes will be taught by Nina Davis.  Nina brings an extensive dance background and her great personality and enthusiasm to the Hip Hop classes at Aspire.  Check out her bio on our "Meet the Teachers" section of our website.  We also welcome Bass and Guitar Teacher Travis Gosling to the team.  Travis has recently moved to the area from Canada where he taught bass and guitar for the past few years. 

Simply Music is an amazing piano and keyboard method that temporarily delays the reading process and immerses you in playing great sounding music from your very first lessons. We have taught hundreds of people from age 6 to 92 to play using this method and you can do it, too! We have a series of Free Introductory Sessions coming up. You will learn how the program was created, the results we achieve, how we achieve those results, we'll demonstrate the method and give you a chance to ask questions and have them answered Please RSVP for a specific session by calling 681 3979. The sessions are offered:
Saturday, Aug 20 at 10:30 a.m.
Tuesday, Aug 23 at 6:30 p.m.
Thursday, Sept 8 at 6:30 p.m
Saturday, Sept 10 at 10:30 a.m.
