From the reviews
My son has done two of the small groups for piano and is currently doing private piano lessons now. Mr. Shay is pretty amazing. We also love Ms. Trisha (we started with her on the small groups. Ms. Mary is just the sweetest! I highly recomend starting your little one here!
We recently started piano lessons for our 5 yo here. I discovered it while walking through the complex. The group class was a great introduction for us. The class is moving at a pace that 5 yo can handle and the teacher is really great and patient with the kids. There are 6 kids in the class and never more.
NCMAC is a great music school. Our son has been learning Piano for 3 years now with Ms Beverly and our daughter took some piano lessons there too. They have been amazing through the difficult times in the past two years with online classes, keeping the music training going and retaining some semblance of normal life.
Honestly I am so glad I made the decision to start taking guitar lessons at NorCal Music. I had tried before in high school and felt like I wasn't musically talented. However after working with Eric for just a couple months I think maybe I'll actually be able to play the guitar someday!
Lessons at Norcal Music & Arts Center
Reviews and the store's own info mention lessons at Norcal Music & Arts Center. 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.
