MMPA Group Classes
We offer group classes in music and the performing arts at our nonprofit branch, Mode Music and Performing Arts (just two doors down from Mode Music West Studios West Seattle). All MMPA classes are offered at sliding-scale prices, as MMPA believes finances should never be a barrier to Arts Education.
Rock Band Classes
Mode also offers rock band group classes, where students who are interested in joining a band can be matched with each other and mentored by a member of a local band. If you’re interested, make a note in your application for lessons that you’d like to join a rock band, and our team will do their best to reach out to like-minded students to make your rockstar dreams come true!
Rock Band Summer Camps
Each summer, Mode offers week-long rock band camps for students ages 6-12 and 13+*. 2024 Camps were from June 24th to August 31st.
Students rehearse from 9:00am to 12:00pm for ages 6-12 and 12:30-2:30 for ages 13 and up* Monday through Friday. They work on existing material and/or write original songs with one of our Mode multi-instrumentalist teachers guiding them. The performances take place the Saturday after camp for an audience of their family and friends at The Skylark Cafe!
Make it a full day by signing up for our afternoon camps at MMPA below!

Tiny Modes
Our music studio also offers group classes for kiddos ages 0-4 years (suggested) with our Tiny Musicians program. We use both original tunes and the music of Caspar Babypants to encourage our littlest rockstars in singing, instrumentation, play and story time — all in one 45 min class!
Classes are offered Fridays and Saturdays from 10-10:45 and 11-11:45. Registration is open!
Creating opportunity for young musicians
Mode Music Studios began life as Erin Rubin Piano studios. After four years, and with an ever-growing clientele and continuing community interest, we decided to move into a new bigger space, creating more opportunity for young musicians to find their voice through private music instruction.
“The teachers at Mode are truly the best! They are musicians who know how to teach kids in a way that engages them and makes them want to learn & play. We are so grateful we have found Mode for our girls and recommend them to all of our friends.”
— Rachel L, Mode Parent
