Private Music Lessons in Kansas City's Urban Core

BAM’s Private Lesson Program is weekly appointment where students work one-on-one with an instructor at their own pace and without distractions.

Private music lessons are the main focus for BAM because we want every student we work with to have an adult look them in the eyes and give them their full attention. Private lessons offer the platform to tell that student through words and actions that they matter and that they have something to give.

Kids want so much to know that they matter and that they belong, and we want to tell them resoundingly “YES.” This is true not because they have demonstrated amazing skill or potential to be be a world-class musician but on the simple merit that they are human.

BAM Strikes a Chord in KC
