Summer Camps and Classes
Summer 2019 Season
Our summer season is chock-full-o-music! From our BIG Summer Camps, to Ukulele and Songwriting Mini Camps, to Summer Glee Clubs, and Summer FLEX Lessons, we have a variety of lessons and classes available to fit your child’s musical interest and schedule. Check out our offerings below!
BIG Summer Camp: Voice, Piano, Guitar, Ukulele, World Drumming (Ages 6-11), and Music Exploration (Ages 3-5)
What keeps kids coming back year after year? Our BIG Summer Camps are jam-packed with music, more music, and fun! Students, ages 6-11 of all levels and abilities (no experience necessary), will have the opportunity to learn to sing through the songs they love, as well as become acquainted with an instrument of their choosing: guitar, piano, ukulele or world drumming. This year, we are opening up camp to our 3-5 year old students, as well. Our younger students will be immersed in a world of music exploration from instrument playing, to rhythm and melody, and of course, fun! We have highly qualified instructors on staff to ensure a well-rounded educational experience and an exciting week. In addition to group instruction in voice and instruments, students will make friends, play games, and have an all-around musical good time!
Did we mention our BIG concert at the end of the week? That’s right at 2:00 pm each Friday of camp we gather for a concert to show off everything we learned!

Songwriting Camp
Get excited for this one! Our piano/guitar/ukulele teacher Trevor Shipley is offering up his songwriting expertise in a one-week songwriting camp. This is the perfect opportunity for students to have a practical application for the music lessons and classes they have been taking. The camp will be structured with lessons, activities, and workshops with the ultimate goal of coming up with individual compositions as well as a collaborative group song. The only experience necessary is prior lessons or classes (or self-taught experience) in voice, piano, guitar, or ukulele. Voice students will learn basic chords to accompany themselves or will have some help from instrumental students.

Audition Prep Camp
Learning how to audition and nail the role is an art on its own, from walking into a room with confidence, to singing with passion, to acting the truth, to following directions when it comes to learning a dance routine, casting directors are looking for the packaged deal. This Summer, Singing and Acting Coach extraordinaire, Meghan Taylor, is offering an Audition Prep Camp to help your child enter the Fall audition season with gusto. By the end of the week your child will have an audition cut of a song ready to go, the skills to master a cold read, and tricks to learn choreography on demand.

Ukelele Class
Simple pleasures. That’s what we think of when we see and hear the ukulele. You grab a uke and strum and sing along to your favorite songs. By popular demand, we are offering a Ukulele Group Class for students to learn and enjoy the simple things in life. The best thing about learning the ukulele is that students can be playing full songs within a week of picking up the instrument (with some practice of course). It’s fun and easy, but still offers the basics of music learning on an instrument. Additionally, students will learn singing pointers along the way, so they can play and sing tunes as one. A mini concert will be held on the last day of class at the Naptown Sings! studio. Join us!

That way you don’t feel pressured to miss if your baby just want to sleep, isn’t feeling great, or just isn’t feeling it sometimes. The Thursday 5:45 PM class is pay for 5 of the 6 classes: $82.
Music Immersion: Ages 3-5
Register for 10 classes, pay for 9. You asked so we created it. If your child is little too old for the Musikgarten 0-3-year-old program and not quite ready for private lessons, this class is a great transition to keep your child musically engaged during these formative years. We immerse ourselves in a little bit of everything, from steady beat and basic rhythmic and tonal patterns to an introduction to piano, ukulele, and singing, to world music, pop music and more.
