    I have always wanted to learn how to play the piano. Finally at 33, I decided to just go for it. I…read morefound Jordan through a Google search and have been musically happy-ever-after since. Jordan provides lessons to all ages, which was actually quite difficult to find when looking for an instructor in the area. I instantly liked him when I went to my first lesson almost two years ago. He is knowledgeable, patient and will switch up his instructing technique within an instant the moment he notices you aren't quite getting it. Also, as an adult learner, Jordan takes the time to find out what I'd like to learn and incorporates those interests into our lessons. I have shown up early and have seen him interact with a few other students as well. His style is obviously tailored to the student. Whether you are 8 years old or 80 years up there, Jordan will teach you to play the piano. Guaranteed.

    I found Jordan about 3 years ago through the Piano Teachers Forum for Charlotte. At 37 I had been…read moreself-taught up to that point. I'm a terrible teacher and even worse student. I was apprehensive about taking lessons afraid that I would need to start at the very beginning to learn basic things. My skills were all over the map. Jordan definitely helped me break through my plateau. The best part was learning fundamentals in a way that wasn't boring or discouraging. I'm a more well-rounded player now and getting better all the time. I've seen Jordan with students and he has a great way of meeting people where they are and building skills from there.

    They just don't come any better than Heather Conine. I was looking for a Suzuki Violin teacher for…read moremy daughter when I happened to run into her camp. Not only was the camp more affordable than any other camp we have been to, the education was extraordinary. Heather knows how to excite her young students into learning, making playing the violin, and learning about music, tons of fun. We hadn't necessarily planned on continuing with lessons after camp was over (we had just wanted to give her a taste) but there was no way to stop. My daughter was hooked. Heather knows how to use little toys and games to keep her young students motivated.... they are having so much fun, they don't realize how challenging it is to play the violin. Suzuki violin lessons with Heather is one of the best decisions we have made for our daughter. 5 stars!

    From the owner: The Suzuki approach is not the average extra curricular. It builds a special bond between you and…read moreyour child, builds community among other Suzuki families, and equips your child with lifelong skills. "Music exists for the purpose of growing an admirable heart," said Dr. Suzuki. This is also my common goal-- to make good citizens in the process of learning the tedious skills on the violin. Lessons are engaging for as young as age 2.5/3. We use Bunny Ballads-- sing songs of the bunny family & then play them on our violin. We start from scratch and break down each skill so that each child can learn within their own learning style. We will have bow games to learn our bow hold, races from rest to playing position.. as well as trying to see who can keep the marble on their violin the longest! Music Mind Games enables children as young as 3 to learn music theory and develop preliminary training for note reading. It is sometimes the treat at the end of a good lesson. Students who have a good lesson get a prize at the end! The prizes eventually go away and then they are left with great listening skills just because they want to see what's in store. Not everyone who plays a music can teach it, but I have been teaching children for almost 10 years with great success.

    My one hundredth review, brought to you by a two-time Lady Rockstar…read more First of all, ignore the shitty one-star review from the user who clearly doesn't get PML's mission, and hear out the point of view from someone who has done more than just one class at this organization and absolutely enjoyed her experiences here. I have done two Lady Rockstars classes, a women's weekend retreat and one of their many Girl Jams, all in the span of four and a half months! In doing so, I learned so much more than the music. These music classes don't just focus on the music, although learning the music is pivotal and the instructors here do a kickass job of teaching that (also they have Plugged In online classes that are totally affordable, if that's something you'd like to take advantage of). But another part of it is becoming empowered and learning to empower your other classmates. Also you build relationships with your classmates within the four weeks of your Lady Rockstars class, and you walk away having made friendships with some cool chicas. As a vocalist and performer, I've had experiences that were stressful, uncomfortable and super tense, even turbulent and volatile at times, and could not even enjoy the rehearsal process, as such awful atmospheres made it feel like work. Believe me when I say that PML offers a unique experience (and for some a therapeutic one), vastly different from anything else you've done. (No cattiness or bitchiness allowed here, either!) And for that, I am grateful and will thank Krystle a million times over. But don't take my word for it. Go down to PML, and check it out for yourself. Rock on!

    I'm doing the online classes, and love the way Krystle teaches. She offers leveled lessons so you…read morecan choose the instructions most accessible to you. Her sense of humor and realness help when you're feeling frustrated or struggling with a song. I also love that she is promoting growth mindset without downplaying the importance of sticking with it until you get it right. I would love to do Lady Rockstars but live too far away. Maybe someday!
