Since 1992, hundreds of students of all ages have taken music classes at our convenient Skokie location.  We’ve been providing quality music education for Niles, Morton Grove, Lincolnwood, Park Ridge, Des Plaines and Northern Chicagoland as well.
We encourage our students to learn many styles of music - whether it be baroque, classical, romantic and modern or blues, jazz and pop.  In addition, we provide students with musicianship skills and an appreciation for music that will last them a lifetime.  But we do not believe we are the best because we offer such a balanced program of music instruction.  We have the reputation we have because families think we are the best.
As a parent we realize you have a choice between several different music schools. All studios are not the same. We constantly renovate and improve our facilities and provide ongoing training to our staff to ensure we are always providing our students and parents with the best experience possible.  We take care to educate the parents of young students so they may be better equipped to guide them.  Studying music is a substantial investment of time, care and money.  We need to be able to insure success and confidence in our students.  They need to be able to use this new language and learn to have fun with it.
To insure students’ measured progress we hold “How to Practice” seminars for parents of students (included with lessons). We also implement a well-rounded curriculum of music skills to supplement and balance the music education that is given.
Today, as in 1995, we excel in helping students express themselves through music. We invite you to compare all of the features and options to see why our studio has advantages over any other music school.
At Five Hands Studio your child will develop what research has shown for many years - that those who have studied a musical instrument as a child have a lifelong advantage.  They acquire higher levels of self-discipline and confidence, as well as higher levels of cognitive and motor skills.
Adult students are welcome at our studio too.  Our instructors are experienced with beginners as well as advanced players in virtually any style of music.
Our schedule is designed to suit your needs.  There is still room for lessons in our programs.  We are still accepting registration for classes.  There are available lesson times throughout the week - Monday through Saturday.  We can also teach two family members at the same time in order to save you time!
We hope you will consider us as a fun and educational activity for you or your children this school year.  Thank you for your interest in our programs.
