TakeLessons teams up with the YMCA and the ACES program at Poway Mesa Verda Middle School to teach kids the basics to learn how to sing. Adam and Ariana from American Idol went to the same middle school. How much do music lessons cost? Not that much, according to Steven Cox of TakeLessons. TakeLessons offes music lessons and voice lessons in over 2,800 USA towns - both private local music lessons and group lessons for afer-school programs, private schools, summer workshops, community centers, and corporate wellness programs. All lessons results are recorded through the TakeLessons Online Journals so parents can always see what their child is learning. All TakeLessons instructors have been certified and are background checked.
