I don't suggest sending kids to this school, especially if your kids have special needs. The…read morefounder/board member/director Kate Yoder dislikes young kids and autism kids. She discriminated my kid as soon as we walked in the recital room. She asked us not to sit in the front row because she said my kids were "young". Approaching to the end of the recital, she ordered us to sit in the back because she said my kids were "noisy". She knew my kid had ASD. But my kid is high functioning and behaves pretty normally. There're other young children and baby(ies) in the audience making sound. My kid's teacher who was also in the audience approved in writing later that my kids were not disturbing. The teacher actually had suggested us to sit as close as to the front. We were targeted by Kate Yoder from the beginning. My kid has autism. We are minority. I had never met her before. My kid met her only briefly years ago. To rationalize her discriminated and targeted actions, Kate Yoder even made up some actions that my kids never did "legs in the air, lying on the floor" in writing. It was also proved by other audience not happening at all. It's so evil for an educator to put on innocent young children!! Whenever I requested Kate Yoder to apologize, the school canceled my kid's signup of the summer program and kicked my kid out from the school. And it happened twice. What a shame for a place that is supposed to be for beautiful things like music and care! Kate Yoder should step down from all her positions of this organization!

When several years later it needed the neck cork replaced they did it in 20 minutes while I waited for a ridiculously low fee, no appointment required.

I would recommend it without reservation for anyone in need of musical instrument repair, especially saxophones. Steven W. Margles, MD

And if they don't stock something you need, they'll order it for you or point you in the right direction. Alan, the owner, is extremely knowledgeable and helpful if I have questions or need advice. When I came in last year wanting to restore my vintage kit, I had no idea where to start, and Alan helped me through the entire process, from cleaning, de-rusting, to finding missing parts. Whenever I have a problem with my kit or something breaks, I always go to Alan first (it's a good idea to call the store to see when he's working!) Often he'll find a way to fix it without having to purchase new parts. Definitely recommend this gem over bigger places like Guitar Center.

I've been a drummer off and on for 10 years. I started taking lessons with James about 3 months…read moreago. All too often, the barrier between learning and not learning can be ones approach to a problem. James provides advice tailored specific to his students' learning style. On many occasions James's advice has altered my approach and has made the process of learning drums easier. Learning is as much of a skill, as the skill you are trying to learn. The saying goes, "practice makes perfect". But practice only makes perfect if you practice correctly. James, through his own personal experience knows what it takes to be a master of drums. He has done it, and he is not afraid to share the tricks of the trade. Take a class with James. He is a top notch musician and a top notch instructor. James lives and breathes drums - this is what he does. If you are ready to learn, there's no better place to be than "The Drum Academy"

The parents also loved it and were very happy to see their kids enjoying the music, exploring instruments and dancing! Mister Vic was very nice and kind and he even offered to sing Happy Birthday at cake time! And last, but not least, Pat was super nice and helpful in helping book the party and providing great advice on how to have the space set up for the party. Thanks to both Mister Vic and Pat for a great time and for helping us build great memories of our son's party! 100% recommended :)
