More about Musically Minded

Musically Minded Academy is located in Oakland's Rockridge district, a 10 minute walk from Rockridge BART. Just off highway 24, highway 13. Parking's a breeze and we are handicap accessible.

Within the last 7 years, Musically Minded has grown from a living room based piano studio, to a renovated garage to a 6000+ square foot facility in Rockridge. Adding specialized teachers along the way and always including regular group workshops, the studio grew and became a 501(c)3 non-profit in 2007.

This series is an idea of Alan Hall, one of the drum instructors at the Academy. He will be playing on August 7th with Terrence Brewer and August 21st with his own group.

A brainchild of executive director, Anna Orias, Musically Minded Academy has expanded to offer opportunities for community building through music lessons, classes, workshops, student recitals and professional concerts.

Please come by for a visit sometime!
