Teen Band Programs in Toronto

Programs for Ages 10–13 & 14–17
at Our Toronto Locations

Take your private music lessons further by joining one of our teen band programs in Toronto. Students rehearse together, build ensemble skills, and work toward live performances in a fun, supportive, and motivating environment. Band programs give greater direction and purpose to private lessons by allowing students to take what they learn in private lessons and apply those skills in a real band setting.

Why Join a Band ?

Private lessons are essential for developing technical skills, learning repertoire, and building confidence on your chosen instrument. However, they’re often a solitary experience. Over time, students—especially younger ones—may lose motivation without a social or creative outlet to apply what they’ve learned. That’s where a band program comes in.

Playing in a group setting introduces a vital social and collaborative element that keeps learning exciting and purposeful. In band rehearsals, students apply their private lesson skills in real-world musical contexts. For example, if your group is working on a song like Stairway to Heaven, your role might be to play rhythm guitar, lead guitar, or even a solo. This gives you a clear reason to ask questions in your private lessons: “Can we go over the chord progression for my part?” or “Can you help me with this solo section?”

Band programs bring musical goals to life. Students experience the full creative process—from rehearsal to live performance—and develop valuable skills like listening, teamwork, and stage presence. And nothing beats the feeling of performing with your band in front of family and friends, sharing that final product you’ve all worked hard to create.

💳 Teen Band Tuition & Payment Schedule

Simple. Transparent. Easy to Budget.

Tuition is based on the number of scheduled rehearsals for each band. All Teen Band Programs are billed in 4 equal instalments, making it easy for families to spread tuition over the school year.

2nd Payment	December 1, 2026
3rd Payment	February 1, 2027
4th Payment	April 1, 2027

Please Note

The total number of rehearsals varies depending on the day of the week. Holiday closures, long weekends, school breaks, and the Elite Music Academy calendar have already been taken into account when calculating each program’s total number of classes and tuition.

Students are billed only for the scheduled rehearsals in their selected band.

Late Registrations

Students are welcome to join a Teen Band after the school year has begun, provided space is available.

Tuition is prorated based on the number of rehearsals remaining in the school year, so families only pay for the classes taking place after their start date.

A Placement Session is still required before joining a band to ensure the student is placed in the group that best matches their age, experience, instrument, musical goals, and the overall balance of the band.

Returning Students

If you completed a Placement Session within the past year, you may not need another one.

In many cases, we already know your musical interests, experience level, preferred instrument, and the type of band that will be the best fit. If you’re ready to join a band this year, simply contact us directly with the day or program you’d like to join. We’ll review your previous Placement Session and let you know whether another assessment is necessary.

Students whose last Placement Session was more than one year ago, or who have not been active in one of our Teen Band Programs, may be asked to complete a new Placement Session so we can accurately assess their current playing level, musical goals, and the best group placement.

finding the right musical fit in our teen band programs

Finding the Right Band

After you book your Placement Session, one of our instructors will spend time getting to know you as both a musician and a person.

We’ll talk about your musical experience, your primary instrument, the styles of music you enjoy, and what you’re hoping to get out of the program. We’ll also ask you to play or sing so we can better understand your current level and how we can help you continue to grow.

Our goal isn’t to judge your ability—it’s to find the band where you’ll have the best opportunity to learn, contribute, build confidence, and enjoy making music with others.

Every Student Is Different

Our suggested age groups are designed to help students play with others at a similar stage of development. However, every young musician develops at their own pace.

If your child is slightly younger or older than one of our recommended age groups, don’t let that stop you from contacting us. During the Placement Session, we’ll also consider musical experience, confidence, instrument, and overall group fit when making our recommendation.

Our goal is simple: to place every student in an environment where they’ll have the best opportunity to learn, contribute, make friends, and enjoy performing together.

If Your First Choice Isn’t the Best Fit

Sometimes, after meeting a student, we may recommend a different band than the one originally selected. This isn’t because one group is “better” than another—it’s because we want every student to have the best possible experience.

Whether that means joining another age group, a different rehearsal time, or another instructor, we’ll always explain our recommendation and work with you to find the most suitable option.

More Band Options May Be Added

As our Teen Band Program continues to grow, additional groups may be added throughout the year based on student interest, instrument balance, scheduling, and instructor availability.

If you don’t currently see a band that fits your schedule, we encourage you to contact us. We’ll do our best to recommend an existing group or let you know when new opportunities become available.

I also understand that there will be specific and non-negotiable times for the departure and arrival of some of the Camp’s transportation, and EMA has the right to cancel my child(ren)’s participation in the motorized vehicle if these departure and arrival times are not respected.

I hereby waive any right that I or my child(ren) may have to inspect or approve any finished product (including but not limited to any brochures, videos, slide shows, web sites, and/or other Camp materials) or any advertising copy that may be used in connection therewith or the use to which it is applied. I hereby warrant that I have the right to make this release on behalf of my child(ren) and that my granting this waiver and release and the rights conveyed thereby will not infringe upon the rights of any third party.

I understand and agree that any photographs and/or video/audio recordings I make of my child(ren) at EMA shall be used solely for my and his/her/their private, non-commercial use, and that absolutely no sale, transmission, distribution or commercial use of any such photographs and/or video/audio recordings or descriptions are permitted. Liability Release and Indemnity Agreement: I, on behalf of my child(ren), hereby release and forever discharge and agree to indemnify and save and hold harmless EMA, the respective owners (direct and indirect) and affiliated and subsidiary companies, volunteers associated or affiliated with the Camp, and EMA’s respective officials, property owners, landlords, owners, partners, directors, officers, employees and agents, and the other participants in the Camp (each such entity or individual being referred to as a “Released Party”) of and from any and all injuries (including personal injury, disability, dismemberment, and death), illness losses, damages, claims, liabilities or expenses of any kind or nature (and whether accruing to me, my child(ren), my heirs or my personal representatives) that are caused or alleged to be caused in whole or in part by the action, negligence or failure to act by any Released Party or condition of any real or personal property, facilities or equipment of any Released Party and that arise out of or in connection with the Camp or my child’s participation therein or attendance thereat. I acknowledge that, in the event of any breach by EMA or any third party, the damage, if any, caused me or my child(ren) thereby will not be irreparable or otherwise sufficient to entitle me or him/her/they to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, and my child(ren) and I will be strictly limited to the right, if any, to recover damages in an action at law. Neither my child(ren) nor I will have either the right to rescind or terminate this waiver and release or any of EMA’s rights hereunder, or the right to enjoin the production, exhibition, or other exploitation of my child’s name, voice and likeness or any subsidiary or allied rights with respect thereto.

I agree that the foregoing terms and conditions are intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by law, and any terms and conditions set forth herein found by a court to be void or unenforceable shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other terms and conditions.
