Bringing the Joys of Music to Children
It is in learning music that many youthful hearts learn to love. -Matthieu Ricard
Founded by Julian and Hermeline, JMA was born from a shared passion for making music education accessible and inspiring for all. We envision music for every child, in every home, in every school, so every learner can experience the transformative power of music.
We offer a variety of programs designed to nurture musical skills and enrich cognitive and emotional development:
Group Music Classes for ages 18 months–14 years
Private Lessons for ages 5+, including Piano, Guitar, Voice, Violin, and Saxophone.
Adult Music Lessons for those seeking a creative outlet and rekindling the joy of Music
JMA Kids Chorus, where students grow through singing and performing
Every student learns the fundamentals of music theory, sight-reading, chords, transposition, improvisation, and more. We keep learners motivated with practice incentives and parent support, offering lessons in studio, in-home, and in-school settings.
At JMA, we foster a lifelong love and appreciation of music—helping students unlock their potential and carry the joy of music into every part of life.

Every child deserves an opportunity to learn how to play a musical instrument and nurture their musical skills.
Students will participate in a nurturing and motivating learning environment.
Our music curriculum is dynamic and age-appropriate to help children build a solid musical foundation
Studies have shown that music education can positively impact a child’s cognitive development, academic performance, and social-emotional skills.
We are passionate about teaching music and require parents’ engagement in our music learning process! Your participation includes encouraging your child to practice,
creating a distraction-free practice zone in your home, and reviewing/signing your child’s Practice Log Journal at the end of the week.
We also partner with preschools, elementary, and middle schools to create or enhance schools’ vocal, piano, and music appreciation enrichment programs,
offering their students access to much-needed music education during the in-school and/or after-school hours. Click here to learn more about our partnership with schools.
