At Aj's Music Academy, we understand that life can be unpredictable. If a student does not arrive within the first 10 minutes of their scheduled lesson, the session is considered a no call, no show. In such cases, we record a personalized video lesson for the student, ensuring they don't miss out on that week's material. However, if a student is ill and unable to attend, please contact us as soon as possible so we can work to make the best accommodation for you. We strive to offer flexibility and ensure every student continues to make progress, even if they cannot attend a live session.

Enjoy flexibility, convenience, personalized attention, and learn at your own pace.
