You want your child to thrive.
You recognize that having trusted adults who can pour into them is valuable. Yes, you want the educational benefits of music lessons, but you also want a space for them to learn more about being a good human.
Music lessons at FAME give kids something no app can: a skill that grows with them, a creative outlet that's entirely their own, and a relationship with a mentor who genuinely invests in who they're becoming.
This is what we do at FAME. That’s why we're here.
1-on-1 Private Lessons
Every lesson at FAME is built around one kid, yours. Their goals, their taste, their pace. Our teachers don't follow a script. They follow your child.
Voice Lessons
Your child already has a voice. We help them figure out what to do with it. From healthy technique to navigating vocal changes to finally nailing the song they've been singing in the car for months, voice lessons are where self-expression becomes a real, living skill.
Piano Lessons
There's something about sitting down at a piano and making music that never gets old. Kids start with the fundamentals and build toward playing the songs that actually matter to them. Because that's what keeps them coming back.
Flute Lessons
There's a reason the flute has been around for thousands of years, it's one of the most expressive instruments a person can play. Kids learn breath control, tone, and technique in a way that's methodical and deeply rewarding.
Guitar Lessons
Acoustic or electric, beginner or beyond. Kids learn chords, rhythm, and the deeply satisfying feeling of playing a song all the way through. Join the waitlist, and we'll let you know when we're ready.

Why Parents Choose FAME for Private Lessons
A Real Relationship
Our teachers don't just show up and run through scales. They learn your child — how they think, what lights them up, and how to bring out their best. Week after week, year after year.
No Practice Guilt
We don't assign mandatory practice or send kids home with a checklist. In our experience, kids who are genuinely enjoying what they're learning want to play. That's the goal — not obligation, but love of the thing itself.
No Auditions. No Pressure. No Judgment.
Your child doesn't have to earn their spot here. They just have to show up. We'll take it from there.
Teachers Who Actually Care
Our instructors are experienced, talented, and deeply invested in the kids they teach. This isn't a side job for them. This is their calling.
Consistency Without the Chaos
Same day, same time, same teacher — every week. We keep it predictable so it actually fits into your family's routine and your child always knows what to look forward to.

What Parents
Are Saying
Jennifer B.
(Flute Lessons, Kids Troupe, Toot Flutes, and Summer/Day Camp)
"My daughter started out as a total beginner in the Toot Flute class, and it was such a sweet, encouraging introduction to music. She grew so much in that class that she was ready to move up to private 1:1 flute lessons with Ms. Regina, and watching her confidence bloom since then has been one of the best parts of our FAME experience. Ms. Regina is patient, warm, and clearly loves what she does, and it shows in how excited my daughter is for every lesson. Honestly, we love all the teachers and staff at FAME.
From day one it's felt like more than just a place for lessons, it feels like a second home. If your child is even a little bit curious about music, I can't recommend FAME enough. We can't imagine being anywhere else."
B. Williams
(After School, Piano Class, Voice Class, and Piano Lessons)
"A welcoming and warm place for a child to embrace who they are and learn how to shine with confidence. Mary, Jen, and the staff are inclusive and caring. Attentive to any concerns or questions I have had. My child has thoroughly enjoyed every summer camp, group and private lessons, and spending after school at FAME."
K. Dellinger
(Kids Troupe, Jr Troupe, Voice Class, Voice Lessons, and Summer Camp)
"As a Fame mom, I’ve gotten to see my 9yo daughter learn and grow and gain so much confidence over the last 3 seasons she’s participated in Kids Troupe. It’s so refreshing to see my daughter able to just have fun, find her voice, move her body, and muster up the courage to be onstage in front of her peers and total strangers.
Even my older daughter who has traditionally done sports and shied away from theatre/dance signed up for Junior Troupe this fall and she’s loved it so far! We love all of the teachers, our incredible director, Mary Freeman Mitchell, and consider ourselves SO lucky to have landed a coveted spot in Jen Blanton’s private voice lessons."

Do I need to book in advance?
Yes. Semester lessons will be scheduled before Aug 28. A la carte lessons must be scheduled no sooner than 24 hours in advance.
Will my child need to practice at home?
No mandatory practice! Students at FAME develop a love for what they do, so they rarely feel like they have to practice; they want to play at home! Like anything, you get what you put into it, but the goal is intrinsic motivation, not running out a clock. We do not shame a child for not practicing.

Private lessons are available for ages 5+.
What if my child wants to try multiple instruments?
That's great! You can book lessons for different instruments. Many kids start with one and explore others over time.
