What we do
Henderson Academy of Music offers lessons for every instrument (piano, guitar, bass, drums, strings, brass, and woodwinds) as well as voice...in the convenience of your own home.
Lessons are once a week. Beginners generally take half-hour lessons and many eventually move on to 45-minute or hour lessons. We offer a free trial lesson so you and your kids get a chance to meet your teacher and see if it's a good fit before continuing with weekly lessons.
We love teaching and know how to make learning an instrument fun for kids and teens.
Beginners learn the basics of their instrument- proper technique, music theory, note-reading, rhythm, scales, chords, and ear-training. Most lessons for beginners consist of learning out of a method book as well as supplemental games, exercises, flashcards, and simple contemporary songs.
Intermediate and students play songs from contemporary artists such as Taylor Swift and Coldplay. Many advanced students learn composition, improvisation, and play advanced classical, jazz, or rock pieces.
Our philosophy
Music lessons should be fun. Why make your child suffer through boring lessons that they'll eventually want to quit? We believe that playing an instrument should be an enjoyable experience.
Students play their favorite songs. When kids play songs like know and like, they have more fun, practice more, and learn faster. Our students play songs by Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, John Legend, and other pop artists.
Fun, engaging teachers: We not only know how to teach, we know how to relate to kids and teens. We understand how to take complex musical concepts and communicate them in a way that a child understands. Most importantly, we know how to get kids excited about learning!
