The Flex Plan

The Flex Plan is recommended for high school aged students, adults or by special permission from a PMA teacher or administrator.  

  • Students register for 10 private lessons at a time and schedule the lessons with their teacher for when it is convenient for both parties.

  • Lessons are not tied to the school year calendar, therefore they can roll-over between Fall, Spring & Summer sessions.

  • These lessons do not expire.

  • Students may elect to participate in recitals, concerts, or group classes for an additional fee.

  • Private lessons are available in 30, 45 or 60 minute lengths.

This is an ideal choice for students with full schedules who are looking to keep up with their private lessons.
