Online music lessons for all ages and skill levels anywhere!

Our students love their online lessons because they’re convenient, fun, and promote continued growth in our students all year long! Students from all over the world enjoy online lessons with Chinook School of Music with the simple click of a few buttons. Our established team of teaching professionals is dedicated to creating a lifelong love for music with accessible learning strategies. No matter your age, skill level, or experience, our instructors can help you reach your musical goals over a wireless connection!

We are pleased to offer online lessons in piano, voice, guitar, ukulele, drums, saxophone, flute, violin and cello.

What you need at home for online lessons:

  • Your own instrument to practice and learn on. Ask us about rentals.

  • A quiet spot in your home to have a lesson free of distractions. Some students may need earbuds if they are learning in noisy environments.

  • A great internet connection.

  • A computer, phone, or tablet.

  • A notebook and a pen or pencil.

  • A great attitude!

  • Bonus: Our students have found that purchasing an adjustable tripod or phone stand helps greatly in capturing the right angles for their instructors.

  • Bonus: Our students have found that having a light in front of you while you are playing gives your instructor better viewing through your device. A simple table lamp will do the trick!

You may require a music book for your lessons. Chinook School of Music is pleased to stock a wide range of music books to support your learning. We have in-store pickup and can ship to students outside of the Calgary region.
