CMA is wonderful, our son started taking drum lessons. He has ADHD and the staff at CMA have brought something to the surface with his drumming that allows him to focus in a way no other activity has ever focused him. Thank you to the staff of CMA for building a space where kids can be themselves and explore music.
I can’t say enough good things about Carmel Music Academy. My son just loves the lessons and his instructor Logan. Recently there was a performance and it was very well done and my son had a great chance to have performance experience (at no cost I might add). Overall Carmel Music Academy has been a very good experience for both my son and myself 😊
Our four year old did about a year with Jacob, now moving on within the school. But Music Fun Time was great, and Jacob is amazing.

Love this music school. The teachers and owners really care about their students. I highly recommend for anyone looking for music lessons.

5 stars to our violin instructor, Katy. She is the best. However, CMA’s billing practices are nothing short of a scam. First, while it’s all laid out in the paperwork, their cancellation/make-up policy is extremely harsh and unforgiving. But worst of all, they will continue to charge you after you cancel. This is the second month they have charged me after canceling and I yet again have to contact them to reverse the charge. Also, one month they double-charged my lessons. Despite repeatedly telling me they would refund me, they never did. I had to dispute the charge with my credit card company.
