Hands-On Instrumental Music Classes- Students will learn to 'find the beat' in music, identify and play with set tempos, learn note reading and counting skills, music theory, music history/composer studies, and so much more! This is Shanda's 9th year teaching lessons and classes to homeschoolers, as she founded "Central IA Homeschool Band & Instrumental Music Classes" in 2017. It was a natural addition to her usual music teaching,  as she homeschools her 3 kids. 

With our amazing group of teachers with daytime availability, we are able to offer private lessons on almost every instrument that we offer in the evenings: winds, orchestral strings, voice, guitar, drums, etc. and will form small groups (duos, trios, etc) as the numbers grow in our new space! Fun fact- 3 of us are homeschool moms!

*The classes below will  begin once we've seen enough interest. The calendar for these will vary*

A group setting designed to teach the fundamental elements of songwriting, including lyricism, song structure, and musicality. The class provides an excellent opportunity to get creating and share your songs in a positive learning environment. This class will start out as an 8 week session, with the possibility of a continual class with enough interest.



Learn the basics of playing the Ukulele. You must provide your own instrument. Music and info packets will be provided! 8 week course. Students will have the option to enroll in private lessons at the end of the class. With enough interest, a Ukestra (Ukulele Orchestra) could be formed!



This class puts an emphasis on applying your guitar knowledge to learn to play ukulele.  There will be a strong emphasis on chord and scale patterns. 8 week course



These groups will be formed over time, as we see enough interest. If you or your students are interested in these groups, please reach out to discuss further. The more people that show interest, the quicker we'll be able to get them going! If you are a band/orchestra/choir school teacher and want to talk about what these opportunities could look like with your students, we'd love to chat!
