WHAT IS MI ACADEMY?
MI Academy is a Saturday music program that allows students of all ages to get a taste for what Musicians Institute offers. The 5-week program allows students to choose 3 different program streams: Performance, Independent Artist, or Instrument Technique.
In our most popular stream, Performance students develop their playing skills while working with other students to create performance videos that are shared at the completion of the program.
The Independent Artist stream is suited for artists and producers looking to sharpen their skills in the marketplace.
The Instrument Technique stream is ideal for students only looking to concentrate on personal development on their instrument.
Young musicians (8-11 yrs old) can enroll in our Junior Academy, where they will work with other young students to record and perform a song in a music video to be shown at the completion of the program.
CURRICULUM
MI Academy curriculum is based on MI curriculum and created by MI instructors. What makes MI’s lessons stand out from the rest are the professional (and well-known) instructors who have many years of music experience in the industry to pass onto the students. These instructors have the lessons and expert advice to really foster students’ natural talents to become the best players they can be in a creative and nurturing environment.
