"How do I pick the right program for my child?"
Age is Everything

The best program depends on your child’s age. Younger kids (4–7) do well in Music Discovery or Group Piano as a great starting point. Older kids can focus on more experience based programs like Musical Theatre or Rock Band
Let Personality Lead

Have a dramatic, expressive child who loves to sing and perform? Musical Theatre is perfect for ages 6–16, blending acting, movement, and voice. It’s great for building confidence and stage presence in a supportive group.
