The Academy
Our Academy is inspired by the basic analogy of “Music & You Shape Us”. It basically means ‘Music’ and ‘You’ has shaped what we are now!
Since 2014, we have been operating on a simple setup which is on Private-learning concept. Over the years, we have grown into two home studios catering for students from two housing communities in Puchong.
Our teaching experiences has taught us that students find it more enjoyable and easier to learn in a home environment. What’s more, our home studios are well equipped to facilitate our student’s needs.
Our Vision is to build the appreciation for music in you or your child’s lives, so that you/your child can bring home the joy from learning music. And with this vision, all of our classes are personally designed through our own research and development so that our student’s learning experience becomes enjoyable. Our mission is to create a happy, yet successful student!
