Lessons

You’ve decided to sign up for music lessons—wonderful! Whether you’re excited to sing or have always wanted to play the piano, here’s how to get started:

Step 1: Choose Your Path

Consider whether singing or playing the piano suits you better. Both require regular practice. Reflect on any previous musical experiences—did you sing in a choir or play an instrument in a band?

Step 2: Prepare Your Tools

If you choose piano lessons, you'll need to purchase an instrument. Any piano or keyboard will do. For voice lessons, set up a designated practice area at home. Consistent practice is key to your progress.

Step 3: Book Your Lessons

With your instrument or practice space ready, it’s time to schedule your lessons. Call or email to find available slots. We welcome new students at our Slidell location and offer online video lessons.
