What People love about this company
Our lessons always start with songs students want to play. After choosing a song, we will use the song to learn chord structures, strumming patterns, and jamming with with group (if you want to). I will specifically model my lesson to help you at your current skill level. Learning guitar is much easier than people think. I specialize in beginner & intermediate guitar lessons but am very successful helping folks of all ages achieve their musical goals. I offer drum lessons, piano lessons, guitar lessons, ukulele lessons, and bass lessons. Then, if any musician desires to learn how to play with a band they will be given an opportunity to play with a band.

Kevin has been so helpful in teaching our 3rd grader the guitar. The lessons are over zoom, and I wasn't sure how that would go, but it's been great! Our son is learning, and Kevin does a good job making the lessons fun and enjoyable. He also gives enough steps to make it challenging, but not overwhelming. Highly recommend.

Kevin is an excellent teacher. I wasn't sure how zoom lessons would go over with an 8 year old, but it's been a good experience all the way around. He's learning quickly, and Kevin has made it a fun process for him. The lessons are challenging, but very well paced for a younger kid. I'm excited to keep watching their progress!

Kevin is so patient and an excellent music teacher. My child is shy and within 15 minutes of meeting Kevin, our son felt comfortable to learn and asked me to leave the room. Kevin also uses play to get the students to engage and gives them hand written practice lesson plans. He makes learning music look so easy. He cares deeply about the students and has family events to engage families and students to build confidence. I highly recommend Kevin’s music school.

Kevin is such a great guitar teacher! My son has been taking lessons from him and he really enjoys it. It has helped in growing his passion for guitar/music. Kevin has provided him with opportunities to play publicly which has been a good experience. I would highly recommend him if you want to learn to play!

Kevin has been an awesome drum teacher for my 8 year old son. His technique is the perfect blend between music fundamentals and playing songs for fun. I love that if you give him enough notice that you need to miss a lesson, he will record a video lesson. We rewatch those over an over! His level of professionalism with running his business from communication to accounting is also impressive. It's hard to wear a lot of hats, but he does it well! We highly recommend Kevin!

We just finished our first student showcase and it was the best recital/ kids art experience we have ever attended. We were literally at a rock concert! Kevin makes learning fun and my son absolutely loves the Jam Bands. His confidence, musicality, and enthusiasm has increased exponentially since starting at Jam to the beat. In fact, he looks forward to practicing for the group sessions. If you want to take your music experience to the next level, check out Jam to the Beat!

What a good band. They played at our school carnival and were great. Proper volume level for event. Great guys who interacted and let kids join them. Open to all requests and made sure everyone had a great time.

The teachers at this school go above and beyond to help kids learn and grow. They care so much about giving them the gift of music. My daughter learned so much just in one session and I know she will continue thrive here.

This music school is great! They came to our school carnival and put on a GREAT show! They were easy to work with, super kind to the kids, and played great music! I would recommend them for music lessons, school events (like assemblies, carnivals, fun runs), and more!

I’m so excited for my daughter to start lessons. She recently just won an electric guitar and a free lesson from her school ( Jam to the beat performed at her school and did a drawing for one student to win a musical instrument and she won!!!). I think that is so awesome!! They were so nice and explained everything clearly. I signed up that day and Grace is excited to start!!!! Thank you guys so much !

Great teachers, approach and value. The approach with band dynamics make it fun and the public performances are a great growth opportunity. My 8 and 10 year old boys love it and they have tried other music programs they disliked.

Kevin does a great job working with my daughter. I play guitar as well but am a terrible teacher. I've been excited to see my daughter learn. He approached it in a way that worked perfectly for her age and ability while letting her pick the songs she wanted to learn and adapted them to make them easier to play. She has taken to writing songs, has learned to sing and play at the same time, and learned notes and some basic music theory on the way. He has offered jam band sessions where kids get together to play (frequency has been impacted by covid) and recently started an online guitar games that she loves. I very much recommend music lessons from Kevin.PositiveProfessionalism

I’ve been taking online drum lessons for little over 2 years now with Kevin. Such a great teacher and friend. He answers any question in a timely manner and so cool!

My son has been a student at this music school for over a year now and the progress he has made is out of this world. Jam to the beat is a great music school to go to. Kevin comes from an elementary school teaching background, so he knows exactly how to communicate and get the best out of his students. I would recommend anyone to Jam to the Beat.

Kevin is great guitar teacher — knowledgeable, patient, and definitely pushes you to improve (even when you’d rather slack 😅). I’ve been making progress and appreciate how much he cares about me improving.

We’ve had a wonderful experience with Kevin as my 6-year-old son’s drum teacher. From the very first lesson, he made learning both fun and engaging, helping my son develop confidence.One of the things we appreciate most is Kevin’s structured and thoughtful approach. He gives my son “homework” to practice between sessions, and at the end of each lesson, he takes the time to show me what they worked on—which helps my son feel proud and keeps us involved in his learning. He also makes a real effort to incorporate my son’s favorite songs into the lessons, which keeps him excited and motivated to practice. He organizes jams to practice with other kids.Kevin is patient, encouraging, and great at connecting with kids.

This music school is SO great, completely different than any other music lessons we’ve ever done. The kids play fun songs they are interested in, and get to jam with other students of different experience levels.What is REALLY cool, though, are the performances. Kevin, Danielle, and the other staff put together the MOST FUN community concert! The students are in bands and they play excellent music in a fun concert environment, it’s really amazing! I cannot recommend this place enough!

My son, the drummer, has been learning with Kevin since he was 6yo. We’ve had such an amazing experience with both Kevin and Steve. There are so many stage performance opportunities throughout the year, which are incredibly wonderful!My son truly enjoys the whole learning path, from private lessons, to the Big Jam group lesson, and the big shows and rehearsals. These kinds of rich experiences are not something you always find at other drum schools.I don’t usually write reviews, but this has been one of the most precious and meaningful experiences for our family.

Jam to the Beat Music School is an absolute gem. The instructors, Kevin and Steve, are not only incredibly knowledgeable but genuinely fun to learn from. They create a welcoming, upbeat environment where students feel encouraged, confident, and excited to play music. The energy is positive, the teaching is solid, and the whole place just feels right. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great instruction in a fun anbd welcoming environment!!
