I wanted to put my 4 year old son Tommy in piano but thought he might be too young and too active to focus. Boy was I wrong! Ms. Reiko is the most amazing piano teacher! She is sweet and kind and really great with kids. After only 3 or 4 lessons my son learned to play 2 songs. And did I mention my son rarely sits for anything for 30 minutes? He enjoys his piano lessons and time with Ms. Reiko. I believe it has actually calmed him down a bit and given him the ability to focus. Everybody there is so friendly. Theresa at the front desk is really great too. She sends reminders and keeps us in the loop. Music Alley is such a wonderful place. I am so thankful that Tommy is a part of something so amazing!

This is our first year with MusicAlley and with music at all really and I'm just so impressed. Mrs. Reiko and her staff are so warm and friendly, our entire family just loves coming here because it's such a neat environment. Since my kids have younger siblings I really appreciate the play/waiting area they have set up, there's engaging toys and books and everything is always so nice and clean. My kids chose to do drums and I was so skeptical wondering how they would do it since we didn't know the first thing about music or drums, but our instructor Stephen is so AMAZING!!! Not only is he a pro at drums but he's such a great teacher. He's so gentle and patient and has a special way of engaging the kids to start step by step and he encourages them every step of the way even if it takes a while for them to get it. My kids can be pretty shy but they feel so comfortable with Stephen, they have really warmed up to him and they look forward to their drum lesson every week and always have nice things to say about him. My son doesn't do any other activities at the moment because he's quite timid but he was excited to tell me today that he loved playing drums with Mr. Stephen. I'm grateful that a place like this exists in our town. Looking forward to see the kids grow in this new hobby.

Both my children have studied at Music Alley since a very young age. My daughter has gained belief in herself that shows in everything she does. My son overcame his shyness and now performs regularly. They have become more disciplined compared to their peers. They love Mrs. Reiko and all of their music teachers. They have gotten to do some musical theater and perform in a number of shows. We would recommend Music Alley to our friends and family.

My daughter Mikayla has been singing with Kinder Choir at Music Alley since April 2016 and she loves it! Ms. Reiko and her staff are awesome with the children. Ms. Andrea is the instructor for Kinder Choir and private voice lessons and she is the best! Ms. Andrea has directed fabulous recitals that people of all ages enjoy. My daughter looks forward to attend her Kinder Choir classes weekly. She is taught how to sing, dance and interact with children in her age group. Ms. Andrea also teaches discipline in music, listening skills, and stage presence. Mikayla is always encouraged to do her best. There are flexible hours and days to accommodate our very busy schedules which is very helpful. I recommend the Music Alley for children of all ages who love the art of music, singing, acting, dancing and just keeping busy with positive activities.

It is with great pleasure that I write this review for MusicAlley. Both my children, ages 9 and 7, have been taking piano lessons with Mrs. Reiko (owner) for the past 3 years now. Previously, we went to another piano school, but heard such positive things about Music Alley, that we decided to give the school a try, and it truly was the best decision ever. We have truly found a home here at this Music Alley. All the staff, from Ms. Reiko, to Ms. Andrea (voice teacher), to Ms. Ashley (Music Coordinator) are all professional and care about their academy and the students who attend. Ms. Reiko is truly a phenomenal piano teacher, professionally trained in Japan, and her knowledge and patience, as well as her professionalism and dedication to her students are top notch. She teaches with just the perfect amount of firmness, as well as a gently nurturing attitude that makes her students want to practice and learn. I am beyond pleased with my children's progress here at Music Alley. Besides piano, my daughter also takes private voice lessons, and is also part of a singing/dancing voice group (Alley Katz) with Ms. Andrea, and we are beyond thrilled by the level of dedication and enthusiasm that Ms. Andrea displays to her students. She makes learning fun and my daughter loves the tight knit group of girls in her singing class. Music Alley is truly a gem to the community and to music lovers everywhere who want to find a positive place to enroll their children. If you are looking for a music academy to enroll your children in, Music Alley is the one stop place for you. Besides piano, they also teach drums, guitar, and violin, and have an exceptional art program as well. Definitely 5 stars in my book.
