At Jefferson City Music Academy, we teach several different instruments. Most of our students are beginners, and we love beginners of all ages! We also teach intermediate and some advanced students.
A good age to start lessons depends on the instrument. While some can be started by age 7, some need to wait for longer arms, stronger fingers, etc., and age 9 or 10 is a good time to start. Of course, age 12, 15, 22, 45, 67 - is also a great time to start! Many retired adults find music lessons a great way to keep their brain active, and get a great deal of enjoyment from making music!

From babies through adults, you'll find music fun for everyone at Jefferson City Music Academy! Have you or your child always wanted to learn to play an instrument? Get better at singing? We can help with that! With teachers for everything from piano voice, and violin, to ukulele, guitar, and drums, we'll guide you on your journey to musical excellence!
You will almost always learn to play at least one song your first or second lesson. However, keep in mind that music instruction is a long process. Professional musicians take lessons and practice for YEARS to get proficient at their instrument. Also, we recommend getting the best instrument you can afford.
What could be more special than the bond between parent and baby as they rock and dance to their special music? Watch as your baby starts to respond as soon as she hears "that song" playing! Tap the beat on his back, tap on their rhythm sticks, play peek-a-boo with the scarf - all part of our Family Music for Babies class!

My daughter loves Jefferson city music academy! Her guitar teacher (Mr. Dave) is the best. He plays the guitar with her the entire lesson. Helping her hear the rhythm and tempo helps her a lot. He let's her learn songs she is interested in and that helps her stay motivated and not lose interest. She has been doing guitar for 2 1/2 years and never once wanted to quit.
She doesn't always get the practice time she needs. Her instructor never punishes her. They just practice more during the lesson. It is a low pressure/stress kind of environment. That is so important because I dont want her to dread lessons. The academy is very flexible with scheduling make up lessons. My daughter loves guitar and Jefferson City Music Academy!

My two daughters have been taking piano lessons here for over a year. I am a local music teacher at a JC elementary school and highly recommend them. Miss Helen and her staff are wonderful, knowledgeable instructors. My girls have enjoyed their piano lessons and have grown tremendously as musicians!

Specific reason for 1 star review. I was not made aware of the financial policy that you must cancel future lessons no less than the 15th of the month before, and thus, I was charged an extra month of unused lessons for 2 kids. This added up to $184. It was established in my conversations with the owner that I had not been specifically made aware of the policy, but a refund was absolutely out of the question for the owner.
I notified the owner on November 1st that we would not be attending in November. The first lesson of the month would have been November 3rd, so it was before this. This reeks of a policy that a company has, if they expect to NOT have repeat customers. I would have been a repeat customer, but will not due to the financial experience. I feel ripped off.
