RESIDENCY

Of course you may join a class without being a member. But residents enjoy a one-year residency with access to special pricing, weekly open lab sessions, music theory gym workouts. Our residents makeup our incubators where we workshop our music together. Our residents help determine upcoming schedules and even suggest new classes and incubators. Our member-residents may include an incubator or an elective at no additional cost when purchasing a class or they may enroll in one by itself for a low enrollment fee.

In nearly every instance, a residency will save you money as soon as you join more than one class. But it's really about carving out a dedicated space for you and your music. See our PRICING page for details. Membership front-loads your BKS experience so you can take advantage of our community and features for a year
