Studies have proven that those who study and learn a musical instrument
* test 40-80% higher on all standardized tests in all subjects. The study of music also * enhances the growth of the brains of the young, which * expands the spatial and cognitive development, * sharpens the problem-solving skills and process, and in adults * improves productivity and interpersonal skills.
The latest studies have shown also that in women, those who seem to be infertile, if they would take on such an activity as taking piano lessons, their chances of having children are increased.
OMS has trained many successful citizens in all walks of life, and also renowned musicians over the past 36 years, some of which have returned after graduating from institutions of higher learning to serve as instructors or as advisors, or on the Board of Directors of the School.
We invite you to bring your child, grandchild, or other relative, or yourself to enrich yours and their quality of life by doing something they need to do and you have wanted to do for yourself. The music lessons are for all ages, from age 4 through childhood, teenage, college, adult and senior citizens. So, please continue browsing, and contact us.
