t took almost a year but Hawks’ Music Studio #1 has re-located in the town of Anadarko and teaching has resumed at the original in-town location. All the tornado damage is gone and we have a larger room and better benefits. Email me for both studio’s addresses and phone numbers. An acoustic piano is provided at the studio, along with a drum kit. A portable stand is provided for all electronic 
keyboards and electric guitar students do not to need to bring a guitar amp as amplification is also already provided in each studio. My studio serves all ages and abilities – anyone can learn. Voice, Piano/Electronic Keyboard/ Percussion/Drums and Beginning Guitar are all taught 3 days a week (Tues/Weds/Thurs)at the Anadarko location and Mon/Fri at the Chickasha location, Studio #2. Most styles of music are taught once the student has learned to read music. (Photos of both studios will be coming soon.)
Studio #2 is located in the heart of Chickasha, OK which is about 30mins east of Anadarko. Having this 2nd studio enables me to be able to offer more options in make-up lessons and the availability of a performance venue in the concert hall portion of the building.
Your lesson fee covers the lesson, your lesson materials (if printed by me), and, when possible, a lesson CD-RW that is recorded over every week. Any other lesson materials that you may need I can provide in the studio for the going local rate. A standard 30mins per week is offered however longer lessons are possible once the student has established the desire and the ability to practice long enough to be able to handle more work.
Monthly tuition is payable at the beginning of the month. Some flexibility, by prior arrangement, is possible if your paycheck and my billing don’t coincide. Family and referral discounts are available. A lesson policy is handed out at the first lesson so that the student understands their responsibilities and what to expect of the teacher. The lesson policy also details how absences are handled. You pay for my time and that must be respected or I can not stay in business.
Some supplies are available onsite at the Anadarko studio and other supplies can be ordered. Studio 2 is so close to a music store
that, with prior notice, I can stock what is needed.
All students MUST have an instrument at home upon which to practice. Students bring their own instruments to the lessons so that they are comfortable when playing and I can also monitor them for any breakdowns. A piano is provided in the Anadarko studio for piano students. A touch sensitive electronic keyboard is provided in the Chickasha studio for piano students. Electronic keyboard students bring their own keyboards to the lessons. A drum kit is provided in the studio, students bring their own sticks and mallets. Guitar students must bring their own guitars.
Voice lessons are recorded, live, on CD to aid in home practice and a karaoke set up is used in the studios. Voice students are encouraged to purchase a decent karaoke machine that will record their voice so that they can not only sing with back-up arrangements (with a good pitch changer) but also be able to listen to each practice session.
Some rental instruments are available, but only to students.
