Learn Music, Together!
What does “Learn Music, Together!” mean?
Learning Music, Together! is a modern concept of music education blending Group Format Lessons with Performance-Based experiences. By merging these two pieces, a student is given the opportunity to experience a whole and complete musical education.
Where most music lessons feature the one-to-one lesson aspect, we offer experiences that not only provide an inspiring education, but also engrain musicianship and performance concepts, such as:
1. How to play with others
2. Developing confidence to play/sing in front people
3. Setting and achieving higher goals such as learning a song, writing music, joining a band or trying out for a lead role in a band or play.
Learning Music, Together! focuses on instrument knowledge and achievement that gives students a deep fulfillment in knowing they are not just learning an instrument, but playing real music, from day one!
How Does The Music Circle Work?
When you join The Music Circle, you are joining a community of musicians dedicated to learning, growing, having fun with music, and supporting you along the way.
Students are organized into instrument specific classes and each person is assigned skill-level appropriate material to help them learn how to play their instrument.
Students then apply these taught skills to real songs, so a they can see the big picture of “the why” of what they are learning, own their part and role inside of it, and accomplish it.
A climactic part of a student experience is rehearsing with our bands and playing live. Nothing quite gives the student (and in case of children - their parents) the joy of learning music than playing live.
Is The Music Circle Right For Me or My Child?
Learning music takes time, and choosing the right instructor usually determines if a student sticks with it or not.
Most students or parents decide which lessons are right for them solely based on schedule, location, and cost. However, that does not determine the quality of the teacher, the education, nor whether YOU will have a positive or negative experience.
We recommend researching the school’s reputation, attending multiple lessons a week, asking them about their teaching methodology, and see if they have a proven track record producing happy students and families.
The difference between an okay and a GREAT education can make all the difference in the results of the actual lessons and whether you or your child will stick with it or not.

“When my son expressed interest in learning guitar, I happened to come across some great reviews for The Music Circle. I was intrigued by the unique teaching approach, which, as I’ve seen in action, really caters to all levels and learning styles. They are kind, patient, and encouraging, and I've really enjoyed watching him bring smiles and confidence out in my 11 year old son. He walks into class in the worst moods some days, but by the end of class, he's beaming with pride and excitement. I can't thank The Music Circle enough for the positive energy he’s brought to my son’s life.” -

“Jonathan is the ultimate professional, who is incredibly approachable and wonderful with my daughter. He is patient and really wants his students to love what they are doing. He encourages growth, but also focuses on making sure his students recognize their inner strengths. I highly recommend him for your music lessons - you won't regret it.”

“The Music Circle is such a wonderful way to learn music. They really know how to connect with him, engaging on his level, and builds his knowledge and confidence at each session… Picking a teacher to introduce music into your child's life is a big decision and I give The Music Circle my highest praise and would recommend them to any parent.”

“After years as an oft-frustrated, on-again off-again guitar player (and taker of guitar lessons from many teachers), I signed up with The Music Circle in hopes of a fresh new approach. I have not been disappointed! I am very happy with the instruction and with the improvement in my guitar playing. I look forward to my lessons. I highly recommend The Music Circle.”

Learning the guitar isn't easy, but it can be amazing when it's passion sharing not drudgery. The Music Circle experience has been just that: passion and love for music. I feel like I'm getting a top notch professional coaching experience rather than just "Lessons." My dream has always been to be able to jam with my friends and family who play, but I never thought I had the gift of music. The Music Circle has given me that gift, to my own surprise I keep getting better.

Much like school and college, our students learn and play together in classes. They are provided individual training, challenges, and feedback in every class from our trained instructors. We do not offer traditional private lessons.

If you’ve even been part of a classroom experience, yes! Group lessons take the pressure off you as the individual to learn the necessary skills in front of a professional and simultaneously develop your personal confidence over time. Plus, it’s fun to be a part of a supportive community and play music with other people. You’re a part of the band! How cool is that?

You get what you pay for. A cheap lesson creates poor results, which creates a frustrated student, and ultimately, a quitter. We do offer a scholarship program to select youth students. Book a school tour so we can go over all these details with you, or give us a call/email for a faster reply.

All songs are comprised of common skills and techniques, that must work together in order to play music. Many of our students, after learning these skills and techniques in songs, are able to learn their songs on their own.
