One to One Lessons
One-to-one music lessons offer a personalized learning experience tailored to each student’s goals, skill level, and musical interests. With individualized attention, learners can progress at their own pace, receive immediate feedback, and focus on techniques or pieces that inspire them. This focused environment helps build confidence, develop strong foundational skills, and foster a deeper connection to music. Whether a beginner just starting out or an advanced student aiming to refine their craft, one-to-one lessons provide a supportive and engaging space to grow as a musician.
Group music lessons provide a fun, collaborative learning experience where students can develop their skills alongside others. These sessions encourage teamwork, listening, and musical interaction, helping learners build confidence as they play together. While the supportive group environment adds motivation and social connection, it’s important to note that group lessons are available only for selected instruments. This ensures that each class maintains the right balance of instruction, engagement, and quality, giving students a rewarding and enjoyable way to grow musically.
Group Lessons
We are delighted to introduce The John Kavanaugh Studio, a remarkable new facility available at our Kiltimagh school. As a result, we are thrilled to offer an exciting opportunity to students from both schools. They can now take advantage of our Band Rehearsal space.
In this space, students are provided with the means to come together and engage in the joy of playing and exploring music. They can practice and rehearse within a band setting, alongside other like-minded students of similar ages and abilities. Not only does this opportunity allow students to enhance their musical skills, but it also provides a great source of enjoyment. Moreover, it contributes to building confidence and fosters the development of new friendships and creative collaborations.
Equipped with a wide variety of instruments and music gear, such as a PA system, microphones, acoustic guitar, piano, keyboard, drums, percussion, electric guitar, and bass guitar amps, students have the freedom to rehearse, experiment, and create music in a fun and relaxed environment. Our Band Rehearsal Coordinator, who is a member of our teaching staff, is available to offer assistance if needed.
Our goal is to match students for band rehearsals as effectively as possible. If you would like to be part of a band, enjoy playing music in a laid-back and informal setting, and develop new friendships, please fill out the form below. Each band will be allocated a weekly one-hour time slot.
