Music & Dance Academy

I have been taking lessons here since I was six years old, I’m 18 now, and over those past 12 years I have learned an invaluable skill, playing the piano. It is with the help of all the teachers who have taught me over the years, especially Mrs. Tiskevich, that I have been able to learn and play the piano. I truly honestly say that I am truly grateful for the invaluable lessons and information that has been handed down to me over the years. I would recommend anyone who wants to learn an instrument or dance to attend the Music and Dance Academy.

So Dr. Jarrett is my vocal coach and she is amazing. I wanted to actually learn to sing and not just a few songs. My previous place didn’t want to teach me the science or technique behind it but Dr J is a stalwart in making sure you know what you’re doing and why you’re doing it and how the body does it.

I wanted to get back to singing as an adult because I used to be in choir and was a good singer, well 18 years and some combat tours later, I have some hearing loss and other issues, but Dr J has been gradually getting me to hear correct pitch and match it again and I’m no longer scared to learn something I thought was going to be impossible to relearn.

I highly recommend coming here if you want to learn vocal technique and improve your vocal quality.

Make a joyful noise and sing. It’s good for your soul. Adults don’t be scared! We can all learn!

My children have been taking lessons at Music & Dance Academy for about 14 years. We have always been very happy with the level of service offered and appreciate the great communication with the instructors and staff! I would highly recommend the academy for any and all music interests!

My daughter has been with the Music and Dance Academy since she was 5 years old. Now, she is 13. We really like the faculty and staff there. They are friendly, caring, and responsive to our needs. Our instructors are very capable and love to teach. My daughter's piano skills have been continuously improved. I particularly like those social events and activities organized by the Academy, as they provided nice platforms for my daughter to perform in the public and to develop skills on the stage. In my opinion, this is a significant advantage of the Academy over individual piano instructors.

I most definitely recommend this school!
As a music student at the Academy, I have had a really good experience and grown a lot as a musician. My teacher takes a lot of time to help me with my technique, musicality, and choosing music to help me grow. Through the school I have gotten many opportunities to perform and compete with my instrument, which is a great experience for someone looking into making music their career. The staff and teachers clearly care about students and their success.
