In the Practicing Pro Academy, we learn how important doing 6 review songs is a day.

Earn them one song at a time:

Six songs at once:
Learn and review/upgrade six songs at a performance level. Do a final concert changing your masks for each piece. Choose the mask that you think best suits each song.

Create a story for each monster mask based on one of your songs.
Draw pictures of the stories and the monsters that go with each song.
You can even make a program with drawings from each of the stories.
