Our curriculum is both thorough and captivating. Our instructors tailor the lessons to the individual students needs and goals, whether that means a heavy focus on theory or preparing for a specific performance. Class and private lessons include theory, ear training, fun and creative activities, and the opportunity for ensemble work as well as solo.Our program is committed to helping students learn to read music and understand theory, so that they become increasingly independent and will be able to carry this skill throughout their lives. We are equipped with learning games, midi technology, visual aids and a variety of motivational tools to make music lessons both enjoyable and rewarding. Our students are given the opportunity to perform and compete with each other as well as outside the school.

All of our kids have taken lessons at AHMA. It has been such a great experience for them! Our oldest kids (now young adults) continue to play guitar and drums and our youngest is still taking piano lessons and LOVES it! Twila and all of the instructors are professional, patient, and amazing educators!
