Individual lessons follow an open enrollment policy, new enrollments in individual lessons are accepted at anytime throughout the year.
Our Student Services Manager will help you decide which instructor is right for you as well as assist in determining an appropriate lesson length, and will then schedule a trial lesson at a mutually agreed upon day and time. The trial lesson is a single paid lesson ($40 fee) that allows the student (and parent) to meet the teacher to determine if the instructor is the right fit for the student, as well as recieve important feedback and, if needed, level assessment from the instructor. Once the trial lesson is completed, you may enroll for the remaining weeks in the term, or request another trial lesson with a different instructor.

| String Instruments | Wind Instruments | Other |

Are you and a friend interested in learning an instrument together? Sherwood is now offering shared lessons for 2 or 3 students at a time. Prices for shared lessons are the same as for private lessons, so shared lessons are an economical way to learn a new instrument in a fun, social environment. Pre-formed groups only please, Sherwood will not match up individual students to form shared lessons.
