DAMPA is fantastic. The teachers genuinely love the kids and are skilled and the office staff is so easy to work with and always cheerful. My daughter is reaching new vocal heights every month!

DAMPA has been great for my children. Their teachers (and the other teachers) are always very friendly and encouraging. They are helpful and flexible with regards to scheduling. My older son has stuck with piano for 6 years and my younger son for
1.5. They enjoy the lessons. They are given multiple chances to perform each year via recitals and showcases with local venues. I highly recommend.

My daughter loves DAMPA voice lessons! She has had 2 different instructors over the years and they have both been great. She looks forward to going each week, and I enjoy hearing her practice between her lessons. I appreciate that DAMPA has encouraged her love of music and kept her actively seeking to improve her skills.

My daughter started school here this year and she loves it. She attends the conservatory program which is online academic classes from 9-12 and performing arts classes from 12-4. Anyone who is interested in giving their child a more thorough, well-rounded education that differs greatly from “traditional” schooling should seriously consider talking to one of the many great people who work at DAMPA 🙂

This is an amazing school. All the instructors are of the highest caliber. My daughter takes piano and voice at DAMPA. She has been there a year and has improved beyond anything I could ever imagine. She is learning to read music and even compose a bit. Sarah, is her voice teacher, and she is such an amazing talent. She has really helped my daughter grow in confidence with her range. She is also very good at not only teaching voice but teaching the kids how to be an artist. She gives my daughter songs that compliment her old soul. Sarah, is the ultimate professional and truly loves her craft. That passion for music fuels the kids I believe. My daughter has so much respect for her and works hard, in between lessons, because she feels that is what is expected with Sarah. I love it.

Paul, her piano teacher is also fabulous. He is a natural teacher. You can tell that he really loves what he does and has a real connection with the kids. He has a very impressive background. Many of his students have ended up on the "Voice". Paul, is a unique piano and voice teacher because he likes to move along at a bit of a faster pace, so the kids don't get bored by repeating the same songs. My daughter has advanced at an incredible rate. She can now download the sheet music of any song off the internet and play it. She is even composing her own songs now on the piano.

I can't recommend this school enough. The staff is all really kind and encouraging and really on top of it. They have a lot of activities like Open Mic Nights, musicals and recitals through out the year. So your child will have a lot of opportunities to perform if they want that.

For the past several months, I have taken vocal lessons from Paul and guitar lessons from David. Both teachers have been amazing to work with. Not only have my skills improved but my knowledge of music as grown tremendously. I would talk to someone at the school if you are considering lessons!

DAMPA has amazing programs for dance, voice, and acting that have really helped my child progress as a musical theater actor. The staff is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. It's a very warm environment for aspiring performers.
