Fostering Passion

Within our exceptional teaching team, you’ll find passionate artists who actively compose and perform their own music. Their creative backgrounds infuse our school with a contagious energy, inspiring students to explore different learning styles and even try new instruments.

We believe that learning to play music is a highly personal experience and shouldn’t feel like repetitive or uninspired work. Therefore, we are committed to teaching each student the music they truly love and are inspired to learn. Passion and purpose are required to fan the flames of long-term musical growth.

Whether your goals are professional or not, we aim to develop natural and efficient technical habits while adapting to the unique and ever expanding learning styles of each student. We believe in the stress and anxiety reducing benefits of a positively guided musical journey.

Through our personalized and adaptable teaching methods, we break barriers and put your dream to learn music within reach!

I have learned guitar with Kelly for two years. Kelly is a talented musician and the best teacher I can imagine. I’m surprised how much progress I made in two years. Kelly broke down all the difficulties into small goals. With his step by step guidance, both theory and technique were covered. He will always find the pieces I’m interested in and fit my skill.Kelly also organized group lessons once a month. It’s very different experience from private lessons. Learning playing guitar with others is enjoyable and helpful.

Anyone who thinks that they can learn music from an online course has never experienced the magic of learning from Kelly Brown. He has a sixth sense... he just seems to know exactly what you need to advance to the next level, and then he pulls just the right tool or bit of knowledge out of the vast library that lives in his head. And as a coach, he pushes you just the right amount with patience and kindness. I always leave my lessons with a feeling of gratitude for his time and excitement to go home and try the new things I discovered.

I have been learning piano at Horizon music school for about 5 months now and I am so grateful for my teacher Dominique who is so patient, kind and a wonderful teacher. It’s so hard to learn when you are an adult and it’s even incredibly difficult to find a teacher who you love and enjoy learning from . I am so lucky Dominique is so supportive and encouraging on my journey to learn piano and helping me every step of the way. Everyone needs a teacher like Dominique in their lives. 11/10 recommended. So grateful

I have been taking lessons with Andrew Balboa for over two years. Andrew is a phenomenal music instructor - patient, kind, knowledgeable and passionate. He's like a musical mother duck, taking care of all his musical ducklings. I strongly recommend taking lessons with Andrew.

Andrew is an amazing teacher whether voice, piano or guitar. He has lived experience as a performer and is an intuitive and inspiring teacher. He is extremely supportive, humorous and has some cool tricks to get you moving forward in your learning. So glad I have the opportunity to learn with him and to be a part of the Horizon community

Learning drums at 37 with little practice time isn't easy, but Julia Geaman makes it so enjoyable! She's super fun and knows her stuff inside out. Even with my hectic schedule, I've been seeing real progress every class. Highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn, no matter their age! Thanks, Julia❤️ Thanks Horizon!

We have been taking weekly vocal lessons from Rocky Riobo at Horizon for over a year now. She is an excellent instructor and highly skilled professional musician. We have greatly enjoyed our lessons with her, and have noticed significant gains in our confidence and ability as a result.Horizon also puts great effort into hosting events and workshops to supplement individual lessons, such as group jam nights, student concerts, and weekly choir (also taught by Rocky!). These events really help connect the school into a larger community, and offer opportunities to explore musical skills in new ways.

What a wonderful place! Kris has great leadership across the studio. Mojo is continually helpful with any of our questions. Monique consistently helps us with scheduling needs. And then the teachers... amazing! Our kids initially had lessons with Rocky (piano) - she was a gift. Now we are with Ricky (drums) and Danny (guitar) - they are very talented musicians and inspiring to our kids with low pressure and high quality instruction. So much that our kids are not complaining about practicing!?!

Both my kids have been learning music (ukulele, piano & vocal) from Rocky Riobo for like 2 years. Rocky is an amazing musician who could play multiple instruments and has an amazing voice! She has great energy and always cheerful. She listens and guides my kids, and very flexible, meaning my kids are having fun learning music!! Music should be fun, and I am very thankful that I have Rocky as my kids’ teacher.As of the Horizon School of Music, the owner, Kris Schulz, and his management team are great. Kris helped me to pair up with Rocky after learning what I am looking for. The match was a success! They have other group lessons and sessions for teenagers and grown up, and yearly students concert allowing students to shine and experience their possibilities. I could feel teachers at the school have passion in music, and teaching music. I highly recommend this music school.

It’s such a break from my day-to-day work and it cleanses my mind and sets me on my way to , you know get back to work and solve other problems so I look forward to it every week.

If you are looking for inspiration beyond those YouTube guitar tutorials, look no further. You’ll get out what you put in – the harder you work, the more comes pouring out!

My confidence and belief in my abilities to play music has skyrocketed since I started here. Worth. Every. Penny.
