The Forte Cooperative​
Support, visibility, and community—without giving up your independence.
​
The Forte Cooperative is a subscription-based membership for independent music instructors in the Coralville/Iowa City/Cedar Rapids Corridor. We handle the behind-the-scenes marketing, scheduling support, and collaborative opportunities, so you can focus on what you do best: teaching.
​
You keep full ownership and autonomy of your private studio—we simply help you grow it and connect you to a supportive network of like-minded teachers.
