Hands-On Music
Music clubs at your school and private lessons at your home — learn the songs in class, then sing & play along at home with a video for every song!
What we do
After-school club
Piano club at school
Students learn piano alongside classmates during weekly after-school lessons at their school. Complete beginners are welcome — and the guided songs and activities here help students practice between club days.
Private lessons
Private, in-home lessons
One-on-one lessons in your home for piano, guitar, and many other string, wind, and brass instruments — customized for students of any age and experience level.
Our Mission
Southern Art Music Initiative believes that music is integral to both educational and personal development. We aim to educate students through meaningful musical experiences while fostering the growth of interpersonal skills, self-confidence, and creative expression. Southern Art Music Initiative is committed to preserving art and folk music traditions while making music education accessible, relevant, and engaging for today's students.
Through instruction, performance, and collaboration, we strive to help students:
- Develop strong musical foundations and lifelong musicianship skills
- Build confidence, discipline, and responsibility through consistent practice and goal-setting
- Strengthen communication and teamwork through ensemble and performance opportunities
- Experience music as a joyful, expressive, and human-centered art form
Our mission is to support students not only as musicians, but as individuals, using music as a vehicle for growth, connection, and self-expression.
