Absolutely horrible. These people should be in prison. They hired a music teacher who came all the way across the country to work with them. This new teacher told them about her summer camps, camps she'd been teaching for years. She gave them all the details, how to do the camps, what to teach, how to approach the camps. She gave them everything. And then, when the ineptitude of the two owners became apparent, the new teacher even gave two full-day presentations at Discovery Charter School to drum up some business for Ensemble. She worked both of these two days free of charge. And then, after Ensemble had what they felt they needed, they fired the new teacher. Granted, they did assure her that they wouldn't use her camps. But they lied. They changed the names and then went ahead and presented the camps anyway. Claude and Amy Borders are thieves of the lowest sort. They are corrupt and completely unsuitable for teaching. Parents beware. Do not entrust your children to Claude and Amy Borders. They are unethical and immoral. Don't be fooled by their kind smiles. Even a rattlesnake is harmless until it bites. read more

My 7 year old son has been taking drum lessons with John Anthony Signorella for the past four months. He's a great instructor, motivates my son and has taught him so much! My son looks forward to lessons and only wishes they were longer. I've been impressed with how much he's picked up in such a short time. He is reading music and knows what he needs to practice with minimal help at home. The whole process has been so rewarding for him, he is focused, determined and he sees the rewards which keeps him self-motivated. He's gained confidence in his abilities and we look forward to many more lessons in his future. I'm so happy we found this place and such a great teacher! read more

Camp Rocks changed my sons life! He attended four of them this last summer, and would have been to ALL of them had we not been out of town. After the first week of Camp Rocks my son was more joyful, engaged in family discussions, and excited about MUSIC! The performances were great, each kid got to jam out on an instrument. Sam got to play drums, sing, play guitar, and play piano. His instructor did a really good job at rotating everyone to different instruments. Sam loved his instructor, and he loved Claude and Amy. To continue the forward momentum in the thing that makes Sam the happiest in life, which is music, we have agreed to start Sam on some piano lessons. read more

Ensemble Arts Academy has the love for kids to keep the arts alive. EAA is passionate about who they hire as teachers to make sure they have the best for the young people. Young people who are our next generation. I know for a fact they support all arts and encourages all ages. Music, dance, singing stimulates the brain through many studies. They are commited and are passionate. They have been generous and supportive. Whatever your child studies, EAA will build confidence and self-esteem. They will do what some of our schools don't offer any more. read more

I only have one regret.That we didn't find Claude and Amy sooner! The magnet school she attends (LVA) requires their students to have private instructions. Our Daughter had gone as far as she could with her previous instructor, but she needed more precise and intense direction and instruction. Claude's experience and knowledge is impressive. My Daughter adores Claude, He is able to connect with her and has made her a better horn player. Amy is a sweetheart and keeps the place running smoothly. read more

I had considered taking my daughter to this "school" but upon speaking to the owners I came to the conclusion that I had to take her elsewhere. The two people I spoke to, particularly the woman, were rude in the extreme. They did not instill me with a sense of trust. The prices were also a little high for what they offered. I will not be taking my daughter here, nor can I recommend this place to any other parent. read more

Don't be misled by the name, this is not an academy. Claude teaches out of his house. I understand that he at one time had lesson studios but they have been shut down and I now understand why. If your're looking for quality music lessons there are many places in town that have quality teachers who have been providing lessons for years and do background checks on their teachers. read more

My daughter had a great time at their Camp Rocks! this summer. They take 4 weeks and divide into actual bands and learn music to play at the end of the summer finale. She was able to sing (which she has been doing forever) and to learn the keyboard. A lot of care and work goes into the program. The staff was great and very helpful to her. read more
