About Tulsa Midtown Music

Tulsa Midtown Music exists to help people grow as musicians in real-world settings, not just in a practice room. The studio focuses on helping students understand their instrument, apply what they learn in live situations, and integrate music into everyday life.

Teaching philosophy – Three I’s

Our teaching philosophy: The Three I’s

Our approach is built on the Three I’s so students do more than just finish a lesson book.

Information: Clear instruction in fundamentals like technique, theory, rhythm, and song structure.

Implementation: Guided practice on real songs, progressions, and patterns that match each student’s goals.

Integration: Coaching on how to use those skills in real contexts—worship teams, bands, songwriting, recording, and personal projects.
