My Music Workshop

Recommended Ages

Preschool–6th grades

My Music Workshop is an online music education program offering structured video lessons that teach rhythm, melody, and instrument skills to children. Courses cover basics like beat and note values, as well as introductions to drums, piano, and other instruments using songs and games. Parents appreciate the kid-friendly pacing, clear visual demonstrations, and built-in reviews that make it easy to use even without musical training. As a subscription, it can function as a flexible, low-pressure alternative or supplement to in-person lessons, especially for younger learners.

Ideal for roughly ages 4–12 who are excited about trying different instruments, enjoy short, energetic video lessons, and benefit from being able to replay material at their own pace.

Pros

My Music Workshop offers hundreds of on‑demand lessons that introduce kids to piano, ukulele, drums, rhythm, and basic music theory in a fun, upbeat format, making it a convenient way for homeschool families to build real musical skills at home without commuting to weekly lessons. 

Cons

As a video‑based program, it can’t offer the same real‑time technique correction as an in‑person teacher, and families will need at least basic instruments and space where kids can make noise without stress.

Because it’s a subscription‑based digital curriculum, some charters and ESAs will allow families to purchase My Music Workshop as a music resource under fine arts, but policies vary and not all programs list it as an approved vendor; check with your funding provider before assuming coverage.

My Music Workshop Mission

My Music Workshop’s mission is to spark a lifelong love of music by giving young children fun, energetic lessons that fit modern family life, blending rhythm, instrument exploration, and movement so kids feel like they are playing, not just practicing.

My Music Workshop Story

Musicians and teachers Elias and Lianna Berlinger started My Music Workshop in 2009 by bringing hands-on music enrichment classes into preschools in Southern California, where kids responded enthusiastically to their engaging, rhythm-centered approach; as demand grew, they translated their curriculum into an online platform with video lessons, printable materials, and school partnerships so families and teachers anywhere could offer a structured yet playful music program without needing a conservatory degree.

About Modular Learning

FAQ: Additional Details about My Music Workshop

In a typical session, your child sits at the keyboard or with a ukulele on their lap while the instructor on screen demonstrates a simple pattern. You hear counting—“one, two, ready, go”—and upbeat background tracks as they play along, stopping to rewind a tricky section and then lighting up when everything clicks. Younger siblings might dance in the background while rhythm games or clapping exercises fill the room with sound.

My Music Workshop is an on‑demand music program where kids learn piano, drums, ukulele, and general music concepts through short, pre‑recorded video lessons and practice tracks. After starting a free trial and choosing a subscription, families log into the website, pick an instrument path or music‑fundamentals track, and follow the suggested sequence of 15–30 minute lessons a few times a week. Built‑in “Jam Along” tracks let kids practice with real music so you can count it as a full elementary music curriculum or a supplement to private lessons. 

Parents of younger learners usually stay nearby to help with video controls, posture, and practice habits, while older kids can complete lessons independently with adults checking progress, encouraging regular practice, and occasionally listening to mini‑performances.

Kids should be able to focus for at least 10–15 minutes at a time and follow simple instructions; for instrument tracks you’ll need access to a keyboard, drum practice setup, or ukulele.

My Music Workshop provides online music lessons with lots of visuals and repetition, suitable for ADHD and autistic kids who enjoy patterns and clear routines. Families can choose shorter videos, pause often, and skip activities that are too noisy or fast‑paced for sensory‑sensitive learners.

My Music Workshop combines at-home, self-paced music lessons with rhythm scarves, shakers, and other props, offering rich auditory and movement-based input that families can dial up or down for a child’s sensory comfort.

Another low‑stakes way for 2e learners to explore rhythm and instruments. Because content is modular, families can repeat favorite lessons and skip ones that overwhelm.

My Music Workshop offers a 7‑day free trial so families can explore the full program before being billed; after the trial, memberships renew according to the plan you chose and can be cancelled through your account dashboard to stop future payments, while refunds for past charges are uncommon and handled individually. 

May not be the best match for serious, conservatory‑bound students who need intensive one‑on‑one coaching, or for families living in very noise‑sensitive environments.

Common secular complements and alternatives include Hoffman Academy for piano, SQUILT Live and Classics for Kids for music appreciation, Chrome Music Lab for playful experimentation, and local private teachers or ensembles for ensemble experience. 

The program periodically adds new songs, lessons, and blog posts to keep content fresh, and the homeschool‑oriented materials explicitly recommend session lengths and pacing so families can slot music into their weekly schedule. 

Schedule two or three short sessions per week rather than one long one, and keep instruments easily accessible so kids are tempted to noodle and review between formal lessons.
