THE STORY
We're thrilled to have been on this journey since 2007, present throughout and continuing to evolve our methods and curriculum toward project-based music education that expands beyond the classrooms.
Juan Pablo Diaz, founder and director of the school, created this project to build a meaningful future through his passion for performing and teaching music. He assembled a dedicated team of fellow musicians, including his wife and brother, and together we have been pursuing what we love.
From the start, we’ve provided students with numerous performance opportunities at some of Miami’s best venues, hosted workshops with renowned musicians, and nurtured a community of well-rounded artists—many of whom now lead successful bands and recording studios.
With locations in North Miami and Hallandale, we offer a performance-based curriculum that prepares students for higher education while equipping them with practical lifelong skills.
We are deeply grateful for this journey.
