Lochwood Academy is thrilled to offer musical theatre, drama, and acting lessons that are fun, dynamic, and inspiring for students of all ages. Whether you're just starting out or dreaming of the spotlight, every class is tailored to your unique talents and goals. You’ll gain confidence, sharpen your acting, singing, and dancing skills, and fall in love with performing—all while having a blast every step of the way!
A dynamic blend of singing, dancing, and acting. Musical Theatre is perfect for kids who love putting on a show! Students learn how to perform in ensembles and solos, work on stage presence, and grow in musicality — all while having a blast. It’s a great way to build teamwork, self-expression, and stage confidence.
Drama lessons encourage kids to step into different characters, explore emotions, and tell powerful stories. Through fun games and scene work, students develop strong public speaking skills, empathy, and the ability to think creatively on their feet — skills they’ll use in every area of life.
Acting lessons go deeper into the craft of performance — from learning scripts and monologues to mastering movement and voice projection. Ideal for aspiring performers, our acting classes build discipline, focus, and a strong understanding of stage and screen techniques.
We found Lochwood Academy several years ago and could not be happier. Mindy is a skilled teacher with a personality that very effectively complements her musical knowledge, creating an exceptionally positive learning experience for our child. The regular feedback, opportunities to perform at recitals, and the flexibility to try to work around the occasional scheduling conflicts are also greatly appreciated. Keep it going!!
Hi, I’m Mindy Byerts Hogaboom—the Studio Director here at Lochwood Academy.
As a passionate clarinet/piano instructor with years of experience, there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing students grow and develop their love for music.
But more important than the notes they play… are the life skills they build along the way.
Because learning music is so much more than just reading sheet music and practicing scales.
It’s about developing confidence, discipline, creativity, and perseverance.
With every lesson, students strengthen their focus, determination, and self-expression. Music provides instant positive feedback—helping them see and feel their progress, boosting their self-esteem, and encouraging a lifelong love for learning.
And of course… it’s a ton of FUN!
That’s why I love teaching music in this community, and why I know your child is going to LOVE their musical journey.
