Our scheduled beginner instrument classes for ukulele, recorder, guitar, and piano are starting next week but some groups have already begun! Just like the family below, we can arrange a class for you if our class times conflict with your schedule.
How can we be so accommodating? We have 2 teachers working in our studio that play multiple instruments! At Coyote Music Studio we believe it is important for well rounded musicians to have a working knowledge of instruments in different categories (winds, strings, and percussion) AND we practice what we teach.
Without rewriting that entire post, I believe that students connect in a way that helps them learn from each other better than in a one-on-one teacher/student setting and teaching helps students get to that 4th Level of Learning. I've also found that in my years of teaching, my students have made me a better musician. My primary (and first love) will always be the flute and any flute-like instrument but I also play guitar, ukulele, and piano. You may see pictures of me strumming along on other instruments from time to time, but I don't consider myself a real "player" of those instruments. I simply know enough to "chord and strum," to have fun jamming with other musicians, and that's ok too. Hope Ada Scott is primarily our percussion teacher at Coyote Music Studio, but she also plays a mean piano. She's about to open as Heather Duke in the Denton Community Theater's production of Heathers, the Musical (April 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14, 15). Piano students who wish to continue learning when the beginner class is finished have a lot of fun with her. She also teaches some of the beginner guitar and ukulele class and is starting a group class for beginner drums soon! Check back for more information about that. SPECIALS$20 UKES! $20 UKES!

After Friday, they will still only be $25 to ALL NEW STUDENTS. Sign Up and learn to play. Have a kid who wants to learn guitar but you aren't sure if the investment in an instrument is worth it? Did your child already drop several other activities and you just aren't sure? "What if my child doesn't like to practice?" WE CAN HELP! We have 3 spots available for students who don't have a guitar yet. Sign up for a trial lesson, weekly class, or even commit to the full month for a discount! Students can learn on our studio guitars until they decide it's the right fit. Students aren't allowed to take studio guitars home to practice, which will slow their progress, but it saves your family the upfront cost until everyone is ready to commit.
