I’ve been taking singing lessons at Freedom Music Academy for about 5 months now and Ive definitely noticed a difference in my vocal performance! My instructor, Olga, not only is excellent at their job but strives to connect with their students at a more personal level, which has made me personally feel a lot more willing to and at ease when attempting vocal exercises I may not have complete confidence in myself. I’m going to have to take a small hiatus taking classes to deal with some family matters, but Ill be sure to be back when I have the availability again!

Thanks, Christopher. We're glad you've felt more at ease trying new vocal exercises and have enjoyed your singing lessons. We'd be happy to see you back whenever the timing works for you.

Our daughter has gone here for several months. She is learning piano from Mrs Olga. Mrs Olga is absolutely phenomenal. She is so patient, wise, and knows how to get our daughter focused back in. She has learned so much so quickly! Everyone we have met there is super kind and knowledgeable. The General Manager: Justin is phenomenal as well. I have nothing but good experiences and good things to say!

Freedom Music Academy has been a great experience for both me and my son, Zachary. Taking drum lessons together has become something we genuinely look forward to each week. It’s not only a chance to learn a new skill, but also a fun way for us to spend quality time together and strengthen our bond.
The instructors, Jason and Garret, are patient, encouraging, and do a great job of meeting each student where they are, regardless of age or experience. They make learning enjoyable while challenging you to improve every lesson.
If you’re looking for a place to learn music in a welcoming, supportive environment, I highly recommend Freedom Music Academy. We’re grateful for the opportunity to learn together and create memories that will last a lifetime.

I took my 12-year-old granddaughter here for voice lessons, and Ogla (teacher) was absolutely wonderful, kind, patient and very understanding. She truly went above and beyond to help and encourage her.
A big thank you to Jason for giving us the opportunity to attend.
The entire team does an excellent job working with kids.
I highly recommend them to anyone looking for Voice lessons or Instructions in other instruments.

A few months ago, mind you I'm over 50, I decided I wanted to learn how to play the drums, so I signed up with Freedom Music Academy, and it has been a blast. Jason, my teacher, got me playing to a song on my first lesson, or maybe my 2nd. Anyway, it was so much fun! I highly recommend this music academy. In addition to drums, they offer all kinds of lessons like voice, guitar, and keyboard/piano.
Response from the owner · 6 days ago
Thanks, Cris! Getting to play along with a song is a pretty great reason to pick up the sticks. We're glad you've been having so much fun with drums.
