Adults wanting to learn a variety of instruments and connect with other budding musicians
Eliette’s Music Academy offers a welcoming and inspiring programme designed for adults who are new to learning music or returning after time away. This course follows the Musical Futures International Programme, giving students the opportunity to explore and build core musical skills across Ukulele, Piano, and Drums in a supportive, pressure-free environment.
Following a structured term of classes, participants will spend two weeks on each instrument, learning essential fundamentals such as rhythm, basic technique, chords, and songs. The group then comes together to form a band, applying newly learned skills in a collaborative, real world musical setting.
The programme works toward an informal end of term performance for friends and family, focused on enjoyment and achievement rather than perfection.
This programme focuses on:
Learning practical music skills from the ground up
Building confidence and overcoming “beginner fear”
Connecting with like-minded adults
Making music enjoyable, social, and rewarding
No prior musical experience is required, just curiosity and a willingness to try something new.

MUsical Futures VALUES
A pedagogical 'approach' based on powerful values
Musical Futures is shaped around these core values that state music learning should be:
Inclusive – everyone takes part at their own level.
Engaging – learning is practical and hands-on.
Relevant – starts with music that learners engage and identify with.
Sociable – it is collaborative and with friends.
Informal – led by learners with teachers/leaders modelling, guiding, supporting.
Varied – learners perform, listen, compose, improvise, work on a range of instruments and voices, use technology, explore a range of genres and styles.
Progressive – music learning experiences are high quality, authentic where possible, and with clear progression routes.
Respectful – all learners, no matter what their ability or experience, are treated as musicians, and are supported to learn and develop.
Creative - encourage and nurture creativity for students and teachers alike.
