Surf City Music School is a family-owned and operated small business in Huntington Beach, CA. We have experience teaching music lessons for over 10 years now, but only recently founded this music school. This change allowed us to teach new instruments, teach in new ways, and impact more students than ever before.
Our goal is to shape well rounded musicians whether you are 6 or 60. In every student, music can have impacts on your brain including enhanced creativity and cognitive thinking. We believe that music has a great role to play in the next generation of kids. Music ignites all areas of child development and skills for school readiness, including intellectual, social-emotional, motor, language, and overall literacy. It helps the body and the mind work together. For adults, music can help you combat memory loss and help with deteriorating dexterity.
All of our instructors are conservatory trained musicians. This means that they performed with top ensembles and groups at a nationally recognized Musical Performing Arts School. They also have extensive teaching experience working with students of all ages. All instructors at Surf City music school go through background checks. Most importantly, our founders have a strong connection to music education in general in Orange County. Multiple instructors taught music and piano classes in the Huntington Beach City School District. They taught at Smith Elementary School, Perry Elementary School, as well as Huntington Beach High School.

Austin Floyd
Austin grew up in Huntington Beach and attended Peterson Elementary School, Dwyer Middle School, and Huntington Beach High School. While in high school, Austin was in the Marching Band and Drumline. He is also an Alumnus of the Academy of the Performing Arts, performing in countless Musicals and Music Ensembles such as Jazz, Symphonic and Concert.
These programs shaped who he was to become and eventually led him to the Music Conservatory at Biola University, where he obtained his Bachelor of Music in Music Performance. While attending Biola, Austin taught music at Grace Lutheran School and continued to teach private music lessons. Once graduated from Biola, Austin returned to his Alma Mater to teach at Huntington Beach High School, working with their Marching Band, DrumLine and Wind Ensemble.
In addition, he began teaching MIND Institute Keyboarding classes at Perry Elementary School and then eventually moved to Smith Elementary School teaching all students grades K-5th. Austin’s experience teaching children from ages 4 years to 18 years, has given him the ability to see the impact Music Education has on children of all ages.
This is the main reason he is excited to open Surf City Music School. To provide children a place where they can experience music and create their Community.

Our boys have been taking lessons with Austin for a few months now and they've loved every minute of it. Especially in the midst of a pandemic, ways for them to safely interact with others has been tough and coming to SCMS has been a blessing. I feel they're safe and able to get an awesome musical instruction!

My daughter has been taking lessons from Austin for about 6 years. Austin has really taught our daughter so much and even prepared her for her school music program. Even through the pandemic and completing lessons virtually, he delivered excellent lessons. My daughter always looks forward to her lessons with ZERO complaints! :)

Our 7 year old son has been taking piano from Austin from Surf City Music School. We’ve been so impressed with what an excellent teacher he is. He’s patient and makes learning fun. He keeps our son on task and focused and every week our son is excited for his lessons! I would give 10 stars if I could.
