My kiddo has always been delayed in his fine motor skills. He still struggles; however, we were told this morning by a therapist that the guitar lessons are definitely a help. We didn’t put him in guitar for that reason - we put him in because he loves music and wanted to learn. His teacher has been so wonderful with him and they have built an amazing rapport. I’ve seen his confidence level rise in the year or so of lessons.
We have been very happy here and continue to be. I just cannot sing their praises enough - unless I took voice lessons (which they offer). -Jennifer E.

"My son's piano teacher is very patient with my 9 old year who had no experience with music or piano and this is what I was looking for in a music academy". -Keisha W.

Guitar lessons at Indianapolis Music Academy have been a great experience for our daughter. She has shown steady improvement and is enjoying how this has made music class in school easier for her. We are enjoying her having this additional skill in her life. Casey A.

We have been very happy! My sons have had an excellent experience with their instructors for guitar and drums. They have been extra patient and encouraging with my drummer. My guitar player loves his lessons with his teacher and has learned so much in just a few months. Highly recommend. Krista T.

"My guitar instructor is a very knowledgeable guitar player and has taught me a lot of theory that I was lacking. I continue to learn a lot with each lesson and would recommend Indianapolis Music Academy to other players looking to improve their skills." -Aaron F.
When you are searching for music schools, please consider the benefits of becoming an Academy student and find out why we are the number one choice for music lessons in Indianapolis.
12 benefits of becoming an Academy student at Indianapolis Music Academy:

1. Guitar Lessons, Piano Lessons, Drum Lessons, Voice, Drums, Piano and Ukulele - in one location.
We are a great choice if you have more than one family member who wants to take music lessons. You can schedule all your lessons in at the same time and in one location. We offer all of the most popular instruments in a high quality, convenient environment. We welcome all beginners and all levels from ages 5 to adult.
2, The largest and most qualified teaching faculty in the area!
We have 15 music instructors for guitar, piano, drums, violin, ukulele and voice. Our teachers all have performance experience, university training, or teaching experience, and most importantly they are fun encouraging and motivating. We want to learn your musical goals and help you reach them. We are here to inspire the student, help them to enjoy playing and to feel that they are good at it.
3. Music Lessons Are Number One
Lessons are the most important thing at the Indianapolis Music Academy. We are not a guitar store that also has music lessons stuck in a tiny room in the back of the store with little to no accountability from the instructor. At Indianapolis Music Academy your music learning experience is our #1 priority no matter what instrument you want to play. We have multiple piano studios, guitar studios and multi-use studios for other instruments.
4. Experienced and qualified teaching staff
All of our teachers have attended years of music lessons, music academies, have college training and professional performance experience. We search all over Indianapolis, IN and beyond to find the most qualified teachers who share the values of the Indianapolis Music Academy.
We are dedicated to learning about your personal goals as musicians and helping you to achieve them.
5. A proven track record of excellence.
Visit our Google reviews or Facebook reviews to see what our students and parents are saying. Music teachers open their own teaching studios every year only to close a year or 2 later. We have a proven track record of offering quality guitar, piano, violin, voice, ukulele and drum lessons in Indianapolis, IN all year long. We are not a music retailer who tries to constantly sell you new merchandise, our full time mission is teaching music lessons. We are trusted by hundreds of families.
6. Indianapolis Music Academy has a wide range of music lesson times available!
We are open from 11am to 9pm Mon - Sat. We have flexible scheduling and will work to find a time and day that suits your schedule. Just let us know what times and days you are thinking about for music lessons. We have many 2nd shift adults who take lessons between 12pm and 3pm and many home schoolers who take afternoon lessons.
7. A comfortable waiting area for our clients.
You don't need to wait around on the showroom floor of a music store. Relax in our waiting area, read a book or enjoy our free wi-fi. With over 1,000 square feet of lesson space, we have a very spacious and parent and kid friendly waiting area.
8. Annual photo day with free sitting, free digital photos and a free 8x10.
We are the only music academy in Indianapolis that schedules a free photo day with a photographer. In fact we had 3 photo days last year. We take several portrait shots of each student and we give them a digital copy of all the pictures and an 8x10. Students may have their pictures taken with their instruments or we can provide pianos, keyboard and drums for students during the sitting so they don't have to bring their own.
9. Fully stocked lesson rooms.
Our rooms are stocked with everything you need for music lessons, including amps, practice pads, electronic drum kits, drum sticks, keyboards, pianos and more. We do sometimes have ukuleles and guitars you can use for the lesson, but we suggest you bring your own ukulele or guitar if you have one.
10. Free music recitals at our annual student showcases!
We have free recitals and free special concerts a few times a year. Parents want to know how much their children are progressing on their instruments. The best way for a parent to understand if their investment in lessons is really worth it, is to have their child participate in a recital.
For our students these recitals are free and unlike many schools in Indianapolis we do not charge recital participation or admission fees. We also take red carpet photos at the end of the recital. Our after recital photos are very popular with our students and parents.
11. Month to Month lessons.
The Academy does not require semester minimums for lessons. Every student here is on a month-to-month basis. In fact, if you pay for your first month of lessons and you are not happy or if you are not able to continue with your lessons, we'll give you your money back on all of your unused lessons.
12. We have a wonderful staff of teachers who have warm personalities, are friendly and who love to share their knowledge of their instruments with others.
Ready to start? We don't have a long term contract. Lessons are month to month.
