Why Side by Side Arts

Work with a partner to build motivation, practice habits, and consistency with practice!

Find Your Partner

Step 2: Matching With a Partner

We'll then match you with compatible practice buddies based on your musical preferences, instrument, and skill level.

Step 3: Meeting Your Partner

You and your partner will meet once a week for 30 minutes on a video platform available to everyone. Talk about weekly goals, progress, and encourage each other.

Step 4: During the Week

Stay in touch during the week via text or DM to talk about progress, ask questions, or anything else music-related.

During the last week of rotations, you’ll have the choice to continue or take a break. We’ll try to give everyone new partners every cycle, but encourage you to stay in touch with your previous partner(s)!
