Introduction: When Allied Music Instructors was established in 2003, at our Farragut studio, it was the very first school of it’s kind to open in the Knoxville area. Since then we have moved into a much larger location in hopes of bringing the joys of music to even more students, and changed our name to better reflect the community we serve. Now known as Knoxville Academy Of Music, we are conveniently located at 11230 Kingston Pike, in the Brooklawn Shopping Center and are accessible from Kingston Pike, Concord Road, and Brooklawn Street.
Within our location, we house multiple teaching studios, and are open to serve your musical needs seven days a week. Our lessons in guitar, bass, drums, piano, voice, violin, viola, banjo, ukulele, music theory and composition, as well as our ensemble programs give students a wide variety of avenues to further their musical repertoire, while the convenient location and wide variety of instructors give students the access and flexibility to take lessons in the midst of their busy schedules.
Our lessons are $32. per 30 minute private lesson, plus the one time registration fee of $30.00.
The private lessons we provide are a half hour each, and your child would come once a week on the same day, and at the same time each week. There are 48 scheduled lessons within a calendar year, but you do have the option to withdraw at any time. We won’t hassle you, pile on fees, or make it difficult to withdraw. Drop forms are provided at the front desk of our location. All you have to do is fill out a drop form and turn it in to us by the 15th day of your last month with us. We value each and every one of our students, and hope as time passes, those that have withdrawn may choose to re-enroll with us.
If at any time you need to make a permanent change to your lesson times, lesson days, or instructor, we will do everything in our power to accommodate you! All you need to do is give us a call or drop by the front desk and we be more than happy to schedule a different time, day, or instructor!
For your convenience, we now offer Saturday make-ups! If you or your child miss a regularly scheduled lesson you can now sign up for a free group make up lesson with the office manager at the front desk. These make ups are unlimited - you can sign up each and every time you miss a regularly scheduled lesson! These classes are limited to a maximum of six students, and are on a first come / first served basis. Make up schedules are posted in several places throughout each studio, and are also available at the front desk. We also have a handy guide to help you decide which make up class would be best suited to your needs. Saturday make up lessons are an hour in length, giving us time to provide more one on one time to our students.
We typically offer several classes each Saturday, and the particular class offered changes from week to week to better serve your needs. If the specific class you want is not available one week, chances are it will be available within the month. If for any reason your instructor has to cancel their lesson with you, we will try to find a substitute instructor for you, and keep the scheduled lesson for your convenience. If a substitute cannot be found, we will schedule a private make up lesson at a time that is most convenient for you.
Knoxville Academy students also enjoy our Musical Ladder System®, which helps them keep track of how they are progressing with fun musical achievement tests taken in the student's lesson every 90 days or so, much like the belt tests in karate. Our students, upon passing, receive FREE trophies, wristbands, and achievement certificates. There are NO fees to our clients for this service, and we are the ONLY school in the area that offers it. Student's love our Musical Ladder System, and it's sure to bring a big smile and a great sense of accomplishment!
