Private music lessons for kids, teens and adults, taught by vetted, background-checked working musicians. In your home, at your teacher's studio, or online. Every instrument, every level.
Pick what fits your week. You can change it any time, and many families mix all three.
Your teacher comes to you, same day and time each week. No drive, no waiting room, no car-line shuffle. Kids learn on the instrument they actually practice on.
Learn in a real working musician's space: their instruments, their recording setup, a room built for music. A great fit for drums, advanced players and anyone who likes a change of scene.
The same teacher, live on video. Perfect for busy weeks, travel, sick days and families outside our in-home area. Many students mix online with in-person.
A shy seven-year-old, a teenager who wants to start a band and a dad picking guitar back up at fifty all need different things. We match the teacher to the person.
Patient, playful teachers who make practice something kids want to do. Parents get a plan after every lesson.
Lessons for kids
Real songs, real technique, band skills, and audition prep from people who play for a living.
Lessons for teens
First-timers, returning players and serious musicians. No judgment, a plan that fits a real work week.
Lessons for adultsFrom first-ever lessons to college auditions, in every style from classical to hip-hop production.
More instruments we teach
“The best teachers I ever had were working musicians who could also teach. That's rare. Every teacher at Stage Pass has to be both.”
On TV & online Fox · ABC · Cartoon Network · Yahoo! Music · AOL Music · Huckabee on Fox News · The Megan Mullally Show
Every teacher on our roster has to be both. Here's what it takes before anyone teaches your family.
Two minutes online, or a quick call. Instrument, age, experience, goals, where you'd like lessons and when you're free. This is how we find the right person, not just the closest one.
A coordinator calls you, usually the same day, for a 15-minute talk about goals, schedule and the right plan. Then we choose the teacher for the instrument, the style, the age and the personality. No scrolling through profiles.
Pick a monthly membership or a prepaid lesson pack, e-sign the family agreement, and pay for your first month or pack. We introduce your teacher by text and email with a short bio.
Your teacher gets to know the student and sets the first goals. Then it's the same teacher, same time each week, with a practice plan after every lesson. Not a great fit? We rematch you free or refund you in full.
You'll know the price before you ever talk to us. Pay monthly as a membership, or prepay a lesson pack and save up to 10%.

Love your first lesson, or your money back.
If the first lesson with your teacher isn't a great fit, tell us within 48 hours. We'll rematch you with a different teacher at no charge, or refund everything you've paid. Your choice. Your teacher still gets paid for their time; we cover it. That's how sure we are about who we send you.
No recital in a fluorescent gym. When students are ready, we put them on stage at real Atlanta music venues, with real sound, real lights and their families in the crowd. Playing for people is part of learning music. It's also the night kids talk about for years.

Still wondering about something? Our coordinators are real people who know music.
Every teacher is a working musician who can also teach. Alex auditions each one personally, we watch them teach a real demo lesson, check references, and run a criminal background check and national sex-offender registry search before they meet a student. See our full teacher standard.
Tell us. If your first lesson isn't a great fit, we'll match you with someone else at no charge, or refund everything you've paid. After that, you can ask for a different teacher any time.
Yes. For any student under 18, a parent, guardian or trusted adult must be home for the whole lesson. Teachers are glad to have you listen in.
In-home lessons start at $55 for 30 minutes, studio lessons at $50 and online at $45. Pay monthly as a membership, or prepay a 10- or 20-lesson pack and save up to 10%. No registration fee. See all prices.
In-home lessons cover Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Brookhaven, Buckhead, Roswell, Alpharetta, Johns Creek and East Cobb, with Intown Atlanta and Decatur opening as our roster grows. Studio and online lessons are available across the metro. Check your area.
Absolutely. Adults are some of our favorite students: first-timers, people coming back after twenty years, and experienced players who want to get unstuck. Lessons for adults.
Tell us who's learning and what they want to play. A coordinator will call within one business day with a teacher in mind.
We're building Atlanta's best roster of teaching musicians. We bring the students, handle scheduling and billing, and pay every week. You teach.
