McKenzie Music Academy is a boutique music academy in West Summerlin for very young children, ages 4 to 7.

My lessons are custom tailored to each students needs. No two people learn exactly the same way, and your learning experience should reflect that, in a positive way! I also provide 90% of all lesson material. Diagrams, examples, transcriptions...
