"Our son has taken weekly percussion lessons with Paul for almost a year. Paul is FANTASTIC with all the kids and teaches them correct technique while also making it fun and building their confidence. My son has improved so much, but more importantly, he’s fallen in love with music. I highly recommend Rhythm & Grooves!"

They create a fun and engaging environment, making each lesson exciting. The facilities are excellent, with top-notch equipment and a clean, safe space.

"Richard is a great instructor and makes learning enjoyable. My 13 year old son loves coming to drum lessons. He has learned so much in the 6 months that he has been taking lessons here. We look forward to preparing for the next band season with him. I would highly recommend this music academy."
-Kristen Wilson
"Rhythm and Grooves Music Academy is a top-notch organization! Mr. Richard Henson is an excellent teacher. With his help, our son was able to learn the skills needed to earn first chair percussion in the WTSBOA All-West Middle School Blue Band. Our son looks forward to every weekly lesson with excitement and enthusiasm. Our family highly recommends Rhythm and Grooves Music Academy for any musician wanting to move up to next level playing."
-Darel Davis
"All three of my sons have been taking lessons from Richard for over a year - he is the absolute best instructor! He is an extremely talented musician, but more importantly for us - he is an amazing teacher. He truly cares about the students and really motivates them through an energetic and fun teaching style. I highly recommend Rhythm and Grooves Music Academy!!!"
-Jim Atkinson
"My 9 yr old son is a challenging student and doesn't always like instructors/teachers. He is absolutely thriving with Richard as his drum teacher and is both learning and having a great time. Richard is patient with him, but pushes him to do more than he thinks he can. As a parent, I find Richard extremely helpful, flexible, and communicative. He obviously loves what he does, has a passion for music and teaching, and knows how to work with families. I highly recommend this music academy and encourage anyone to give it a shot!"
-Vyvy Benham
"They are amazing, from the lessons to the customer service. I love how accepting and serious they are with adults who want to learn a new instrument."
