How much do Kalman Music Lessons cost?
Music lessons start at $50 per lesson on a 10-lesson studio package, or $99/month on the Hobby membership. A single 30-minute studio lesson is $65, and at-home lessons anywhere in NYC start at $60 per lesson. Online lessons cost the same as studio lessons — the table below is the online table too. Your first lesson is $15 in our studio ($50 at your home, anywhere we teach). There are no semester fees and no contract — memberships can be cancelled anytime.
