What's new at Rhythm & Grooves Academy:

Happy February, Academy families!

‍

January and February have seen a whirlwind of activity here at the academy, and time is moving quickly. We have so many new initiatives getting started, including the Musical Ladder System, Rock Band and Percussion Ensemble, and the 2025 Summer Camp Series.

‍

Musical Ladder System® has Arrived!

Rhythm & Grooves Music Academy is thrilled to announce the implementation of the Musical Ladder System® this month. A registration email has been sent to the parent's email address we have on file for all current students. There is no additional cost for parents, and enrollment in the MLS is completely voluntary!

Every 3 months the students have achievement tests with their instructors and if they pass they get really cool patented colored bracelets, certificates, and at certain levels, trophies. It's a great way to monitor their progress in lessons to see how they're doing. The Musical Ladder System is creating a big buzz in the music teaching community. If interested, reach out to your instructor about your achievement testing timeline now!

Interested in Joining an Ensemble?

We’re thrilled to announce two exciting additions to the Rhythm & Grooves Music Academy lineup: the R&G Rock Band and the R&G Percussion Ensemble! At Rhythm & Grooves, we offer our students the chance to gain valuable experience in a collaborative environment. Students will have the opportunity to play and perform together while receiving guidance from our experienced instructors. Weekly, students will meet for individual lessons and participate in a 2-hour group rehearsal. The duration of individual lessons will vary based on student preference. Spots are filling up quickly, and the rehearsal season will be starting soon! For more information, visit our Ensemble page.

In Case you Missed It

Due to severe winter weather and icy conditions, we were closed for lessons on Friday, January 10th, Tuesday, February 18th, Wednesday, February 19th, and Thursday, February 20th, 2025. If your lesson has not been made up yet, makeup lessons will take place during our upcoming Spring Break in March. More information will be sent via email as we approach that time. Students who do not need makeup lessons will still observe the Spring Break closure and will not have lessons that week. Thank you for your understanding!
