the new adventure at the new studio!

I have to say the overwhelming response to seeing the new studio is Wow! This is amazing! Someone told me this isn't like any music studio in the area. After months of prepping for the studio opening, I agree that it is amazing!

Yet it isn't done yet.. there is still lots of things on the punchlist including upping the sound proofing to finish.

We have gotten many inquiries about lessons including drop-ins, those that saw our press releases, sign and personal referrals.

We kicked off the summer by doing a Groupon deal and had 61 people buy a 6 week package of lessons (guitar or piano). We're adding to those classes by offering a 6 week session of our own.

Our office staff, Julia and Faith, are fabulous. It's much easier to manage all the day-to-day things with them helping. After more training and a better scheduling software we'll be on task by the end of the summer for more polished systems, communication and professionalism.

I can foresee that September we'll be very busy if not full!

I'm excited about what we're offering this summer... 6 week sessions for guitar or piano, regular lessons as desired and percussion classes and Playful Piano classes. We're offering a Piano Camp and Playful Piano camp in July for 3 days through Rochester Enrichment and we're offering an African Drumming camp in August.

In the fall we'll add violin classes and Music Together classes.

We now have 3 Simply Music teachers, a percussion (and soon SM teacher) teacher and guitar teachers.

Many fun times ahead!!
