Music Theory Lessons in San Jose
Music Theory Education for Every Student
Jinny's Music Studio is a music studio in San Jose built on a simple belief: music education should be for everyone. Students learn in a room built for real music-making, where a true ear is trained from the very first lesson.
Our music theory teachers are local instructors who partner with us because they believe in that mission. Hector leads group theory classes for 3rd–12th graders, and Emily teaches private theory lessons. Meet them below, and sign up early for group lessons.

Group Classes

Hear It, Play It, Write It
Music theory comes alive at the piano. In a studio built for real music-making, students connect what they learn on the page to what they hear and play in a group class.
Ear Training & Composition
In Hector's group classes, every student builds the core skills of musicianship: hearing what's on the page, reading music fluently, and writing original music. Ear training, sight-reading, and composition exercises go hand in hand with the theory, at every level.
