STAR Kids Rhythm

Sound like FUN? You bet it is! Drums & Percussion are FUN!
Kids are instinctive drummers!
Music is so interesting. If you are ready to ROCK, we will show you how we ROLL!
STAR Kids Rhythm is an exciting music, movement, drumming and character-building program designed to integrate rhythm into the lives of children, educators, schools, families and communities.
You will sing, drum and dance together to the infectious beats--it's hard not to dance.
What are some of these principles?
1. Study and regular practice increase your abilities, and make it more fun
2. Good timing and good tone are important.
3. Pay attention.
4. Relax, keeping the back straight and the arms and shoulders relaxed.
5. Begin slowly and carefully. If it is hurting you to play, stop doing whatever is causing the pain
6. Take off your rings when hand drumming, to avoid damaging the membrane.

Kid's Guitar Lessons

"Finally, A Quick and Easy Way For
Your Child to Play the Guitar,
Without any Musical Background,
Training or Experience."


If you're going to start playing guitar early in life, you might as well do it right.

The lessons were created with the beginner in mind. It is suggested that new guitarists start at lesson one, spending at least one week learning the exercises and songs in that lesson before moving on.


Dear Parent, Grandparent, Uncle, Aunt,
and friend of a precious Child:

Does your child enjoy music? Does he, or she, like to sing around the house? Have they ever expressed an interest in learning to play the guitar?

You know, children learn differently than adults. I've taught classes of little kid's, age 5 - 9, and know this from experience.

They will learn:

♦ How to hold down a note to get a clear tone on the guitar
♦ A simple exercise to strengthen their hands.
♦ Familiar songs they can sing & play.
cool strumming patterns.
new guitar chords.
♦ Exercises to strengthen their hands.


Does your child need a guitar? For your convenience,
we offer two very nice kid's guitars packaged with
our program. They are options on the Enrollment Page.


Our guitar program is the most effective way to enhance the student's talents and abilities. All guitar lessons offer students the opportunity to not only learn their favorite songs, but also learn the fundamentals of music and guitar playing including reading music/notation, music theory, and composition.
