Myriad Music School & Dance Academy

Happy Birthday, Teacher Craig!

Our amazing guitar instructor received his BA in Music with an emphasis on composition from San Francisco State University.

His teaching style centers on connection: “It’s important to me to show interest in each song and artist a student asks to learn about.” At Myriad, he enjoys the creative environment that supports both students and teachers.

Outside of music, Craig experiments with rug-making and filming on his old VHS camera, and he loves exploring all forms of art. As Prince said, “Music was put on earth to enlighten and empower us and feel closer to our center.”

Happy birthday to our wonderful Piano Teacher, Tiffany! Tiffany received her Bachelors of Music for Piano Performance at Manhattan School of Music followed by her Masters of Music for Collaborative Piano at Manhattan School of Music.

Tiffany says “I believe in a personal approach—to first build a connection with a student before instruction. A student is not just a student coming in to learn piano; he or she is a person with outside interests and things going on in their lives. I like to learn about them (aside from their music facet) in order to understand them better as a whole, and so that they feel safe, heard, and comfortable to learn and ask questions. As that is established, I focus on building a strong foundation and playing with ease, and we can have fun with that through games, improvising, and playing duets together. One of my goals is also to have students take ownership of their musical journey, and that is done by holding them accountable in their practice. There will be some weeks where lessons might be rough, but I strive to be a compassionate yet firm teacher—we are on the same team and I am rooting to see my students succeed!”

Wishing Teacher Tiffany a great birthday!

Happy birthday to our wonderful Administrator, Krissy! Read Krissy’s thoughts on being an arts administrator below:

“Being an Arts Administrator allows me the best of both worlds. I enjoy the process of coordinating and working with parents and teachers to find just the right class for students and then watching the students and families thrive in the beauty and benefits of music and dance. It often feels like finding the right pieces to a puzzle. Sometimes the pieces fit, sometimes they don’t. It takes time, patience and strategy but once it all fits together it’s an awesome feeling. I love being a part of the Myriad family and community.”

Wishing Admin Krissy a great birthday today!

Mark your calendars!
We’ve got a few events coming up, so stay updated with the event board in our lobby! 🗓️
