"I have had my 3 children in lessons for the past 10 months, and the progress of learning is amazing. They had to be transferred from another teacher because of location, but the motivation on moving on with learning and progress appears to be much stronger at the Academy. The teacher has great ability in communicating and provides the type of program that is able to motivate my children to work on the musical parts."

"We have nothing but praise for Happy Valley Arts Academy. Our teacher is extremely gifted and talented. We are blessed to have him teach our daughter. He shows her above and beyond patience. He keeps her interested by picking music she likes and giving her lots of praise and encouragement. We appreciate all the kindness and professionalism Happy Valley Arts Academy has shown our family."

"My son started lessons at Happy Valley Arts Academy when he was newly 4, and our experience with them has been amazing! Our teacher is the most kind, talented, and patient teacher. We had to leave Happy Valley Arts Academy for a short time, and we never did find another teacher that was as loving and gentle and clearly meant to teach young children to not only play but love the piano. I have also always thoroughly enjoyed the recitals Aria puts on, and I hope we can stay with Happy Valley Arts Academy for the duration of my son's piano experience!  
Thank you Happy Valley Arts Academy!"

"My 5-year-old son is enjoying his piano lessons so much. His teacher is so patient, and she knows how to make the lesson interesting. Chloe (the staff at the reception desk) is so nice and very accommodating. She is really qualified to be in the front row. Overall, we love the school and my son is learning a lot."

"My child started taking piano lessons at Happy Valley Arts Academy just three months ago, and it's amazing how much he has learned and grown. He spent two years taking lessons at another music school, and it just never clicked-- he was rarely excited about practicing or learning new pieces and was not making progress. We were ready to give up but thought we'd try your school, and suddenly everything changed. The system at Happy Valley Arts Academy really works! My son is now reading music and is motivated to practice every day. He gets excited about his lessons! Thank you! :-)"

"We adore the staff!!! My kids look forward to every visit. The instructors and front office are very professional. My daughter has learned music theory, can read music notes on a sheet, and plays the piano with proper form within 2 months. I highly recommend this place. A great investment in your child’s future."

The Most Technologically Advanced & Beautifully Designed Music Lesson Rooms in Oregon


Our rooms are stocked with everything you need for music lessons, including amps, stereos, full electronic drum kits, keyboards, pianos, and more. All you need to bring is your instrument. We have spent thousands of dollars on our studio to offer soundproofing and large observation windows.

Technology is also a big part of lessons at the Happy Valley Arts Academy, and we have installed LED monitors in every classroom at the school.  The monitors have cables that can attach to iPods, iPads, or laptops. This allows students to have a modern and engaging lesson using music teaching apps, music software, Skype, and more. Feel free to "Bring Your Own Device" to your lesson in addition to your instrument! No other school in Portland offers this technology.
One of the things that has really set us apart is our focus on providing lessons that are fresh, new, and engaging.  There are so many great teaching apps out there now that we felt we had to update our teaching rooms with LED monitors.  By doing so, our students have never run the risk of being bored with their lessons.  It's a challenge to engage children or adults, but by integrating technology such as teaching apps from the iTunes store, GarageBand, ProTools, you name it, we're providing a cutting edge lesson experience in the Happy Valley area.​

Free Music Recitals Every 6 Months in a Convenient Location


Every parent just wants to know how their child is doing and if they are really progressing. The best way for a parent to understand if their investment in lessons is really worth it is to have their child participate in a recital. 

In June and November, many of our students choose to perform in our biannual recitals. 
These recitals are free, and unlike many schools in Portland, we do not charge recital participation or admission fees.

We Give Away More Awards & Surprises Than Any Other School


Every month there is an opportunity to earn awards and prizes.

We also give away big prizes for contests including movie tickets, free trips, or even a brand new iPad!

Early Morning & Mid-Day Lessons For Homeschoolers, Retirees, College Students & Working Professionals
