Welcome to Carolina Music Academy.
WE ARE OPEN, JUST IN A DIFFERENT WAY! Three of the CMA teachers, Jami Hawkins, Alan Knight, and Haley Reasoner (piano, guitar, and violin respectively) had done a great job with e-learning. Their students and parents have responded well and all, teachers and students, have patiently carried on in a splendid manner.

Carolina Music Academy continues to serve the Columbia SC community, offering a well-rounded musical education with facets that will aid the student for the rest of his or her life.

At Carolina Music Academy, our mission is simple... we provide students with the highest standards of music instruction while encouraging and promoting them in a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. Please browse our site to learn more, then get in touch!
