"What a special place The Music Studio is! It has wonderful teachers who really go the extra mile to support their students' learning. What's also so exciting is that in addition to traditional lessons, The Music Studio explores different approaches and methodologies to maximize the experience! They're so great at what they do that my eleven year old son, who wasn't so sure he wanted to spend the very last day of his school break in a two-hour piano mini-camp, came home grinning from ear to ear saying how "fantastic" it was!" - April, Stafford VA
Current Students, click here if you need to schedule a make up lesson:
The make up links are updated weekly on Sunday evenings, and as cancellations occur. Time slots fill quickly, so if you're not seeing openings for the current week, they've most likely been taken. However, please check back again! Make up lessons don't expire, and you can schedule at any time during the year.
*Please only schedule a virtual make up if your child is age 7 or older - the virtual format and lesson length are not appropriate or effective for very young students.
We kindly ask for at least 24 hours notice for non-emergency cancellations. And, if you have a make up scheduled and need to cancel or change your appointment, please be sure to do so through the calendar (you can do this by re-visiting your confirmation email). Thank you!

Phone, Email & Text Hours:
We welcome your calls, emails, and texts any time! However, there will be times during the day when we cannot respond immediately, such as during teaching hours (typical teaching hours are 3:00pm - 8:30pm). If you need to let us know you'll miss or be late to your lesson, please leave a message...although we may not be able to respond, rest assured we do check messages frequently. If you need to reach us about a permanent time change, account/billing question, or policy concern, the best time to reach us is Monday - Thursday, 9:00am - 11:00am and 1:00pm - 3:00pm. However, if we do miss your call, we promise to get back to you as soon as possible!

Studio Calendar & Policies
Policy Reminder of the Month:
30 Days notice is required prior to stopping lessons - permanently or temporarily.
Whether planning to discontinue lessons permanently or temporarily, 30 days (one month’s) written notice is required (email is sufficient), the final day of lessons determined, and all accounts (including books, supplies, and tuition) must be paid to date. Provided the required notice is given, your account will only be charged through the designated last day of lessons. Your account will continue to be charged for a time slot if no notice is given. Students may not extend lessons or continue to use a time slot beyond their designated last day in order to make up prior missed lessons (any due make up lessons should be scheduled prior to that date, by using the make-up calendar). There are no refunds or credits given for past missed lessons.

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhen are payments due?
We bill in advance of the month of lessons, with a due date on the 25th of each month. For example: Tuition for September is due August 25th. Reminder statements for the upcoming month go out via email around the 15th, and will also include any past due amounts or book purchases since the last billing.
We've missed a lot of lessons, can we get a refund or credit?
We love being able to offer our families the flexibility of rescheduling whenever they have a conflict. However, please understand that make-up lessons are offered, not owed...and do not hold any refund or cash value. So, we do not credit back missed lessons, or tack them on as free lessons after your stop date. If a student is stopping lessons permanently, any remaining make ups can still be scheduled after the designated last day (although, their prior lesson time may not be available), but must be scheduled by using the make-up calendar. Students may reschedule missed lessons at any time during the year. If multiple lessons have been missed, feel free to spread out your make ups when it's convenient for you.
