ARE WE THE RIGHT
SCHOOL FOR YOU?

HERE ARE 16 REASONS TO HELP YOU DECIDE.

A PROVEN RECORD OF EXCELLENCE

in teaching children and adults to play an instrument. Creative Keys has been in business for 21 years and we have helped thousands of students discover their talent in music and have a blast in the process! You can be assured that yourself or your child will receive a high quality music education, whether your goal is just to have fun or pursue serious study.

with friendly owners who are passionate about music and learning. Creative Keys was founded with a goal of inspiring children and adults to begin a life-long love of music. Their enthusiasm for music truly shows!

Our Dunedin office is open 7 days a week and our Tampa office is open Mon-Sat to serve you. You’ll find friendly, helpful staff at the front desk, ready to assist with any questions you may have. Feel free to stop by during our business hours or call / text / email the office at any time.

with Wifi, a children’s area with books, coloring / homework tables, and plenty of comfy seating. Students and parents feel at ease “hanging out” before and during lesson times. Parents always have the option of sitting in on their child’s lesson, or enjoying some personal time in the waiting area.

who are comfortable teaching a wide variety of music genres – and are fun, patient, and friendly, too!
Our teachers hold various credentials, including Bachelor or Master degrees, professional teaching certificates, memberships in the National Guild of Piano Teachers, Music Teachers National Association, and extensive performance experience. You can feel confident that you or your child will receive a solid foundation in your music studies as our instructors teach note reading, rhythm, proper technique, expression, ear training, and more. Instructors are skilled in adjusting their teaching style and plans to suit the unique needs of each student and work hard to help students accomplish their goals.

Creative Keys offers multiple performance opportunities throughout the year. Outdoor performances (R.E. Olds Park amphitheater in Oldsmar and Carrollwood Village Park amphitheater in Tampa), indoor recitals at venues such as The Music Gallery, and assisted living concerts are all examples of the ways we encourage students to get involved. Participating in performances helps with goal setting and overall confidence and students love the feeling of accomplishment that performing brings. All of our recitals are free of charge to students and their families!

– Choose from piano, guitar, voice, violin, cello, viola, drums, ukulele, bass, flute, saxophone, and more!
We have many families who have children taking lessons on more than one instrument or sibling groups who take lessons with two teachers at the same time. We know how busy you are and would like to help you save time!

Our Dunedin school offers a wide range of lesson times 7 days a week and our Tampa location has availability Monday through Saturday! In addition to afternoon and evening options during the week, lunchtime and early afternoon lessons are available for adults or homeschooled children. Weekends are a popular time for lessons as well.

Our instructors work well with students of all ages, from 5 to adult (piano available for 4 year olds with some teachers). We are happy to make recommendations on which instrument to pursue, based on your child’s interest level and age. We don’t just teach children – we have many adult students who decided to pursue studying an instrument as a hobby or stress reliever, or even to be able to help their own children excel at music. It’s definitely never too late to learn an instrument!

Lessons at Creative Keys are month-to-month so you can decide how long you would like to take lessons. Most students take lessons long term because they truly love learning new songs and techniques while interacting with their instructor. You’ll never be committed to a semester or annual contract!

We have two locations to serve you – Dunedin and Tampa (Carrollwood). Our Dunedin location is at the corner of Keene (C.R. 1) and Achieva Way, and our Tampa location is right on Dale Mabry in the heart of Carrollwood. We have students traveling to us from Palm Harbor, Tarpon Springs, Oldsmar, Clearwater, Safety Harbor, Largo, Pinellas Park, Holiday, New Port Richey, and all areas of Tampa, including Odessa, Land O Lakes, and Wesley Chapel.

For your convenience, we carry all of the beginner books recommended by our teachers, along with a great selection of supplementary materials in a variety of genres.

Creative Keys offers a variety of summer camps each year. We have a great time learning and reinforcing musical concepts through games and activities. Teachers also periodically offer group classes or ensembles throughout the year; for example, a guitar ensemble for intermediate students, audition prep class, homeschool music class, or beginner guitar class.

Creative Keys is open year-round so that students can continue their studies without a long break.  We do not follow any district school calendars since we have students attending lessons from multiple school districts as well as private schools.

Creative Keys is a dedicated teaching facility, not a music store. Other studios may be music stores where lessons only exist to allow for potential sales of instruments and accessories. We don’t think of our students as customers we can pitch sales to; instead, we focus on giving our students the very best music education.

Creative Keys frequently donates to many local schools in and around Dunedin & Tampa, including Curtis Fundamental, Garrison Jones, Leila Davis, Espiritu Santo, Plato Academy, Academie da Vinci, Guardian Angels, Our Lady of Lourdes, St. Cecilia’s, NorthBay Christian Academy, Carrollwood K-8, Scwarzkopf Elementary, Sunlake Academy, St. Lawrence Catholic School, and many more. We are also a business partner of MusicLink Foundation, which offers scholarships to low-income families so that music lessons are available to everyone.

TESTIMONIALS

“Beau had a great lesson and is practicing already! So glad he got a cool, young, and knowledgeable instructor! He’s very motivated. Thank you and please thank Brandon!”

Beau with Brandon Bowers

“The lesson went well; I felt like I learned a lot in a short time! Sarah is a wonderful, patient and encouraging teacher! I did not feel intimidated or overwhelmed! Her method and instruction is perfect for learners of my age”

Regina (adult piano student) with Sarah Stevenson
Just thinking about Meyah’s instructors today and wanted to tell you that they really are fantastic. Ms Beverly is all business and such an efficient teacher. We can’t imagine ever looking for another piano instructor for Meyah. Never-ever!  Today I am simply thankful for Creative Keys.
Sarah T. with Beverly Cross
“It is not just a place to take lessons, but a community of teachers who truly care about each student and students that inspire each other. It is a family, not a business! I couldn’t imagine my children going anywhere else. They have been taking lessons for a little over year and they enjoy lessons and performance opportunities, Creative Keys truly is beyond a music school! Thank you for instilling the love of music into our children!!”
Chrissy with Kathy C and Anthony L

“I’m an adult taking guitar lessons. When I started I had zero experience playing anything. Justin Davis is very patient and encouraging and teaches at the right speed for me. The rest is just practice, practice, practice! Very reasonable lesson costs and I love that there is no contract. Coming for lessons keeps me motivated to keep practicing and playing.”

Rachael K. with Justin Davis

“Bobby is my son’s piano teacher and we absolutely LOVE him. He has been teaching Madden for 2.5 years now. We are so lucky to have him as our instructor ❤️”

Taryn with Bobby Desantis
Ms. Kathy has been teaching my 9-year-old daughter for almost two years & I have only compliments to give!!! Our daughter has shown consistent growth and she looks forward to her weekly Zoom lessons. I enjoy hearing Ms. Kathy & my daughter playing through the tricky parts of a piece together; sometimes there is giggling involved. (And with virtual lessons there is no Dunedin traffic.) In summary, Ms. Kathy is exactly the gentle & experienced teacher that we wanted!”
