For students who enjoy playing instruments, consider joining our first-ever Shaolin Band!

We are interested in students able to play any kind of instrument including guitar, piano, violin, erhu, flute, drums, gong, etc.

Eventually, we hope to be able to provide live music as part of our performances.

To qualify:

You have at least an intermediate level of capability with an instrument
You can bring that instrument to the practice session
You must be a current and active student

We will also consider singers and music producers to join our band.

We plan to meet on Monday evenings at 6pm for 1 to 2 hours. There is no fee and is fully funded by our school.

To confirm your interest, please fill out the registration form here:

Once we have enough people interested, we will notify everyone and begin the sessions.
