New Students
Private Lessons
Group Classes
New students will need to fill out an application and consult with our Program Director (via phone or in person) to ensure that you are placed in the right class and with the right teacher. We encourage placement interviews for several reasons, but first filling out an online application will facilitate the process. (If you're a total square-one beginner, have truly never played or sung before, your placement is very straightforward.) Call 415.673.3600 to schedule an interview.
Group Classes
See the Class Schedule page for current group class offerings, and the Blue Bear Calendar for registration dates.
Call 415.673.3600 to schedule a 15 to 20-minute interview, and fill
out an online application to get the ball rolling. We'll
contact you to schedule an interview time.
At the interview, you will:
- Get more information about Blue Bear programs.
- Get placed in the appropriate level class.
The interview is not an audition, so you don't need to bring your instrument, and there is no obligation.
To enroll:
Please note:
- Your Membership fee plus 15% of tuition are not refundable once you sign up for a class.
- We prefer payment by check, debit card or cash. VISA
and MasterCard also accepted.
Class sizes are limited and available on a first-come, first-served
basis. We cannot hold a spot for any new student who has not paid
their annual Membership fee. There is often a wait to get into
a Band Workshop for vocalists and guitarists. To be on the Band
Workshop wait list, you must be a current or past Blue Bear student (or
have paid the annual Membership fee).

Private Lessons
Private lessons may be started anytime. Call 415.673.3600 to
schedule a 15 to 20-minute interview, and fill
out an online application to get the ball rolling.
At the interview, we will:
- Explore your musical interests and goals.
- Discuss the best teachers for you.
- Discuss your scheduling needs. (Afternoon
and Saturday times are almost always available. You
might need to be on a wait list for evening times.)
The interview is not an audition, so you don't need to bring your instrument, and there is no obligation.
To enroll and officially schedule your first lesson, you'll need
to either prepay for a single lesson or pay the $35 Annual Membership fee.
Lessons take place at Blue Bear in Fort Mason Center, with the exception of drum lessons which take place at our drum teacher's studio located near City
College.
