The instructors are wonderful. The administrative side of the business is utterly distasteful…read more You get charged a lot. They do have a nice building and instructors. But the administrative side is hardly available. I called to ask about rates. 2 weeks go by. They said they would get me on the promotional rate. The rate was good, so I signed up. I would call or text whenever I knew I was going to miss a lesson, just wanting my instructor to know he could go home early. Days after my lesson, I would get a text saying "hey, no one was here but thanks for letting us know." No idea if my instructor was given a heads up. I had an emergency which required significant funds. I checked and my charge didn't go through which was embarrassing. At this point I realized my rate had increased significantly for a couple months. I hadn't had a lesson for the month yet. I called on the 3rd and you have to cancel by the first. I really liked my instructor and wasn't going to mention the rate increase. But they insisted that I pay for a month of lessons because of a technicality. I am only being petty because dude decided to be passive aggressive with me "It's unfortunate you didn't want to honor your agreement. We would have been happy to adjust your rate closer to the promotional rate." Why even play a sneaky rate increase game then? Just stick to the honest rate. You would keep a lot more students that way. I have to call in 4 months and ask them not to charge me more please? On top of that, I have to hope someone is even answers the phone. If the administrative side was functional, it wouldn't be difficult to send a courtesy email to notify students that promotions were ending. I truly hope most of my rate went to my instructor and not just some guy who owns a building. If you have kids, it may be worth it. Otherwise just look for an instructor you can build a personal relationship with that doesn't require a contract. Someone who understands that students come and go but will likely return if you don't try to squeeze them for money. If you do go, ask for Jordan. He is a sweetheart. Utterly distasteful business.

I don't have any other music instruction experience other than the brief lessons i learned in grade…read moreschool so my experience is rather limited. I found this place on CL where they offered two free (30 min ea) lessons-I've been wanting to learn how to play guitar so i seized the chance to check them out. My first instructor was Jordan. He was trained in classical music and had extensive experience playing/performing. Instructing was easy to follow & my homework was fun. Sadly he moved on but i was paired w/Bradley. His preferred style of music is similar to mine and I continue to have lessons with him. From both instructors, I've learned repetition & practice are key! I struggled with finger articulation but Bradley had suggested a variety of different exercises to improve my skills. Cost is very reasonable when compared to say the local Guitar Center music store. After my first two free lessons, i agreed to a 13 week course at $85 monthly. I'm almost done with my initial commitment but I intend to continue on. As a novice I'm eager to learn & this place hasn't disappointed. Check out there free lessons, what do you have to lose?

Bellwood Violin is an excellent resource. I was able to rent a quality violin to start studying…read morethis instrument as an adult learner. The main shop repairs, sells, and rents violins (and larger stringed instruments). Also, there is a studio for teaching the violin to children. Parents will welcome the accomplished instructor and the ability to start the learning journey with a good quality rental violin. Later as the student shows dedication, this is an excellent shop for purchasing. Another reason this shop deserves respect is keeping their doors open when the number of music instrument stores seems to shrink every year. It was a bit of drive from my home to this shop, but absolutely worth the extra effort.
