What's New at Rhythm & Grooves Music Academy:

Happy May, Academy families!

T.G.I.S.B.!

Thank Goodness It's Summer Break!

We know the kids are happy to be out of their academic classes—but that doesn’t mean the music has to stop! At Rhythm & Grooves, we’re keeping the fun going with exciting summer lesson options that fit your family’s busy schedule. Stick with your current schedule, or take advantage of our flexible virtual options so your child can continue their musical journey without missing a beat. We will offer Live Virtual Lessons, where you can connect with your instructor from anywhere, and Pre-Recorded Lessons, so you can learn whenever it's most convenient for you.

If you plan to withdraw your student for the summer, a signed withdrawal form must be submitted by the 15th of the month to avoid being charged for the following month. As outlined in our policies, forms submitted after the 15th will be processed for the next billing cycle, and the upcoming month’s payment will still apply.

Please note: If you choose to take the summer off, we cannot guarantee that your student’s current instructor, lesson day, or time will be available upon return. Re-enrollment will also require completing the registration process again. Additionally, students who withdraw will need to restart their progress in the Musical Ladder System.

We encourage families to take advantage of our flexible summer lesson options to keep the momentum going and ensure their student’s spot remains secured!
