What students say

After years of starting and stopping, this is the first time piano has actually clicked for me. The lessons are challenging but never discouraging.

Sarah K.

Do I need to own a piano?

+

Yes — a real acoustic or a quality digital with weighted keys. I can recommend options at any budget. Practice is most of the work; the lesson is the spark.

How often are lessons?

+

Weekly, 45 or 60 minutes. Consistency matters more than length — ten committed weeks beats two intense ones.

Do you teach adults?

+

Absolutely. Some of my most rewarding students are returners and first-timers in their 40s, 50s, and 60s.

What’s the trial lesson?

+

A free 30 minutes to play, talk, and see if we’re a fit. No commitment.
