At Ballantyne School of Music, we believe that musicians get better when they play together!
I mean, think about it... when you first learned to speak, the way that you "practiced" language was to use new words and sentences to communicate with your Mommy and Daddy... then, siblings and friends. Eventually, were able to have entire conversations without struggling with words and context.
We believe the same is true with MUSICAL conversations! What better way to become more fluent in the language of MUSIC than to play regularly with other musicians??
Take your first class at no charge and pay only $79 for each 4-week monthly session (no long-term commitment for those who are SUPER active with other activities)! First month will be prorated, based on when you took your free class.
Registration is required, and classes will be limited to 8 participants.
Bring your own instrument, and let's start playing music together!
Great news for our South Charlotte active adult community (ages 55+) - we now have group guitar and ukulele classes designed expecially for YOU!
- Get in and out before the after-school lessons begin
- Play music that you wish you had the opportunity to learn as a teen (in the 60's, 70's and 80's)
- Meet - and jam with - other music-minded friends each week
Kidz Jam Band Klub
Tuition: $29/week or $75 for 3-week pass
Fridays - 4:30-6:00pm (Ballantyne)
Our Kidz Jam Band Klub was created to help young students who are still working on their developing their musical language to grow into more confident and technically-strong musicians through weekly, 90-minute jam sessions. Students ages 8-12 will be invited to attend every Friday and will work on learning a new song each week. Our instructors will provide additional accompaniment to keep musicians on track, rhythmically, and will teach chord progressions, melody and harmony, and use of dynamics, similar to the way that we do it in our more advanced Jam Session program.
Our Kidz Jam Band Klub is open to students who are in vocal, guitar, bass, drum or keyboard lessons and have been enrolled a minimum of 6 months at Ballantyne School of Music. (We are sorry, but this program is not currently available for students who are not enrolled at Ballantyne School of Music.) Students will bring their instruments with them each week, if they are a guitar or bass player (drums, keyboard and microphones will be provided).
Weekly passes for our Kidz Jam Band Klub are $29 (or $75 for a three-week pass). Since families have busy schedules, weekly attendance is optional, and three-week passes do not need to be consecutive weeks. Weekly registration for KJBK is required by the Wednesday before class, since a limited number of spots (10) are available. You can sign up by completing the form on the Contact Us page of this website and checking "Kidz Jam Band Klub."
We hope to see you there!!
