Our curriculum is guided and designed around the student’s interests to keep them engaged in the classroom. The delivery is intended to create a lifelong relationship with music, and bring them greater cultural awareness.
Our classes are taught by working musicians, which allow the students to learn important musical lessons used in the real world, as well as gain knowledge of music as a career from a professional.
Beat 4 Beat’s curriculum, teaching staff, and program management focus on providing high-quality instruction and generating enthusiasm and engagement in students. The end of term goal is performing together on stage during special showcases, featuring student bands alongside local and national artists.
