I have been taking guitar lessons from Jason for several months. As an adult restarting music lessons later in life, I had a bit of concern about the process. I was referred to EMA by a friend. Jason took time to ask me about my goals and what I was hoping to achieve. He is an accomplished musician and guitarist. It was obvious from the beginning of my lessons that Jason is dedicated to having his students enjoy learning how to play an instrument and how to understand music.

Ā Ā Ā Read moreAfter contemplating picking up an instrument for so many years, I reached out to Edge and I spoke with Jason. I decided I wanted to buy an acoustic guitar just to learn and have something to pass the time. I had no idea what to get and how much it would cost.

I recommend Edge Music Academy to anyone reading this and is interested in learning a new skill or pushing beyond what...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreWe have used Edge Academy for the past two years to offer a Mini Music Makers class at Lemont Public Library. Mr. Jason, Mr. Brian, and Mr. Sean were all professional, knowledgeable, and so enthusiastic about making music with our preschool crowd!
