What to Know Before Getting Started
If you are starting lessons with us for the first time, we are excited to start learning music with you or your child!
Before we get started — especially if you are new to music lessons — there are policies we want all students and families to know before we begin!
Student Absences
Westlake Lessons is a weekly subscription service. Once you start lessons with us, your enrollment reserves your teacher's time slot on a weekly basis.
Other than Holidays and Summer Vacations, student absences are not eligible for a refund. Teachers may offer makeup lessons at their discretion and availability.
Instrument Requirements
A student must have a working instrument to participate in lessons. You can still request a pilot lesson so we can let your know our availability, but the teacher cannot bring an instrument for the pilot lesson. A keyboard or piano is required for voice lessons.
See our Student Handbook for recommended stores and rental programs.
No unattended Minors
A parent, guardian or baby sitter must be present at the residence during the entire lesson. If a teacher arrives at a house and no parent is present, the lesson may be canceled for no refund or make-up.
