What age can my child start?

From birth. Poco a Poco is our early-childhood programme for ages 0 to 3. We teach children of every age up to 17, and adults too.

Do we need our own instrument?

Not to begin. An instrument is provided at the studio for the trial lesson. Before you buy anything for home, ask the teacher: the right instrument depends on your child's age, size and level.

How long is a lesson?

Private lessons are 30 minutes, once a week, on a regular slot. Poco a Poco classes are longer and run in a small group.

How many lessons are there each month?

Four lessons a month, on a regular weekly slot.

How much do lessons cost?

Fees depend on the instrument and on the teacher your child is matched with. We confirm the monthly fee in writing on WhatsApp before you enrol, so there are no surprises. If you enrol within 7 days of the trial, the trial fee is credited to your first month.

Can we reschedule?

Yes. You can reschedule up to two lessons a month, with notice.

Are there online lessons?

Yes. We teach live one-to-one lessons online, wherever you are.

Do students perform?

Yes. Exams and recitals are part of the path. Our students have played Kara's Candlelight Concerts in Surabaya and international competitions in Hong Kong, Korea and Malaysia.

How do we start?

Book a trial lesson on WhatsApp. If you enrol, the minimum commitment is three months, and you can stop with two weeks' notice.
