40 Music-Learning Experiences
Corey has created a flexible and exciting music curriculum, unique to Winnipeg, and incredibly effective.
Each year, our students enjoy a well-balanced program that offers 40 Music-Learning Experiences, which include a unique balance of private and group learning experiences:
- 30 Interactive Private Lessons
- 3 Group Lessons
- 1 Masterclass
- 4 Recitals
- 2 Family Events (optional)
Our higher-level students are prepared for RCM Examinations and the Winnipeg Music Festival, if they wish. Our family events are optional and have an additional cost of $10/person to cover venue/food, etc.
What's Our Secret?
Each year, Corey creates 4 elaborate and FUN Studio Challenges (with epic prizes to win, valued as high as $50 each)! Students learn the value of earning their prize, and parents find it easy to motivate practicing at home!
In addition to the practice component, our Challenges include unique weekly goals to work on a variety of music skills and encourage the sharing of music with friends and family! It's a proven fact that we all learn more when we're having fun!
Students find learning engaging with hundreds of music games utilized in lessons, off-the-bench activities, and an incredible selection of fun music to play! We send along recommendations for music apps and many resources to assist with practicing at home.
Community Values
Our curriculum includes celebration parties for the top-practicing students, shared lessons for duets and chamber music, and two large family events each year (our Pizza & Pool Party over Spring Break, and the Pride March in June) so kids can find camaraderie with one another.
Students recognize music's impact on the community around them by raising money for various causes (Musicthon, Ukraine, Pet Shelters), and performing in local personal care homes. As Covid-19 made performing in care homes difficult, throughout 2021 we emailed over 300 student performances to all the care homes across Manitoba.
