Membership Terms

At Buzz ’A’ Beat, our programs are designed to be progressive, allowing children to grow through small experiences week after week.

Meaningful musical progression happens over time through consistency, familiarity, and the joy of returning each week as part of a child’s piano journey.

This philosophy forms the foundation of our Membership model and the policies that support each child’s ongoing musical progression throughout the year, including the summer months.

Start your Membership with a Free Trial Class

We’re excited to welcome families to Buzz ’A’ Beat, and we want your start with us to feel relaxed, joyful, and completely pressure-free. Your introduction to Membership starts with a Group Piano Lesson or Baby & Me Piano Time class at no cost.

There is no commitment required to experience the trial class. You’re welcome to enjoy our boutique studio and your class and settle in at your own pace. If the program doesn’t feel like the right fit, you may cancel your Membership anytime up to three (3) days after your trial class, and you won’t be charged.

If you choose to continue after your trial class - and we hope you do! - your Membership will simply begin with your next scheduled weekly class. We’ll confirm all the details with you by email in advance.

We’ve designed this offer so families can experience the joy, warmth, and musical magic of Buzz ’A’ Beat before making any decisions. Each child is eligible for a Trial Class once when first joining Buzz 'A' Beat.

Monthly Memberships include four weekly classes

In months where your scheduled class occurs five times, an Additional Class Week will be added to your Membership billing.

You are not billed when your scheduled class falls on a studio closure, such as a holiday or school break.

Memberships are billed in advance on the first of each month

If your family joins partway through a month, your first payment is prorated. Your regular monthly Membership billing will then begin on the first of the following month.

Membership fees are non-refundable. Vacation Credits and make-up options are available according to the policies below.

Vacation Credits let you enjoy family time and travel

We believe children benefit from consistency, but families also need flexibility. That’s why we built our Memberships so your children can enjoy summer adventures without missing a Beat.

To support family travel and extended time away while keeping your child’s place reserved in class, Members may request Vacation Credits for up to four class weeks per calendar year.

Vacation Credits must be requested at least seven (7) days in advance.

During approved Vacation Credit weeks, Membership fees paid for those weeks are credited towards your next monthly Membership billing. Full details can be found in our Vacation Credit Policy.

Missed classes can be made up

We understand that little ones get sick and life gets busy. We offer private makeup lessons and guided practice sessions for an additional fee that you can easily book by emailing info@buzzabeat.ca.

These makeup options give your child a chance to stay on track, build confidence, and keep their musical momentum going, even if they miss a scheduled class.

We follow the school-year rhythm

To help keep routines simple for families, we do not hold classes on TDSB or TCDSB School Year Holidays, or during March Break (Mid-Winter Break) and Winter/Christmas Break.

On PA Days, however, our regular classes continue as usual.

We understand that family schedules can change and you may cancel

You may cancel your Monthly Membership at any time by providing at least five (5) days’ notice before the first of the upcoming month.

Cancellations requested within five days of the new month will take effect the following month.

Your child's safety and wellbeing

At Buzz ’A’ Beat, your child’s safety and wellbeing are always at the heart of everything we do. We want families to feel confident, protected, and cared for the moment they walk through our doors. That’s why our studio is built with a thoughtful, comprehensive approach to safety:

  • Our studio is protected by 24/7 security monitoring, with immediate access to fire and police response if ever needed.
  • We use exterior security cameras and classroom cameras to support a safe, transparent environment.
  • Each classroom features glass doors, allowing parents to peek in at any time without interrupting the learning experience.
  • Team members undergo a Vulnerable Sector Check and maintain First Aid & CPR certification.
  • We clean and disinfect instruments and toys after each class to keep our space fresh and hygienic
  • We maintain strict privacy and information-handling protocols, ensuring your child’s experiences remain safe, secure, and protected.

Our goal is for every family to feel at ease, knowing their little one is learning, growing, and exploring in a space that truly puts safety first.
