From the reviews
We have been part of this academy for over three years, and I have nothing but respect for the staff, teachers, and the entire community. My son is learning piano, and my daughter is learning violin. While my son has had some amazing teachers in the past, his current teacher, Ms.
We love this place. Our kids have been taking Guitar and Drums lessons for three years from DRMA and they love it. Professional teachers, supportive and communicative management, and the opportunity for the kids to showcase their talent in their in-house stage every year!
About a year ago i was looking into getting my kindergartener into music lessons. He showed a lot of interest in singing, so after asking friends and family for recommendations, we found Desert Ridge Music Academy.
We absolutely love the Desert Ridge Music Academy (DRMA). We have been learning how to play the piano for about two years now. The teachers we endearingly call: " The Jessica's" are wonderful with my kids! They make playing piano fun, are nurturing and encouraging, which keeps my girls wanting to come back each week!
Lessons at Desert Ridge Music Academy
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Desert Ridge Music Academy. If you're signing up a beginner (or restarting yourself), a quick call ahead answers the three things that matter: which instruments they teach, whether the schedule has openings at the time you actually need, and what a first lesson costs. There's no wrong first guitar — a good teacher will happily work with whatever you walk in with, and a shop that teaches usually keeps affordable starter instruments and rentals on hand for exactly this reason.
