PIANO LESSONS FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS

Researchers agree that learning to play an instrument improves test scores, helps students with higher math achievement, builds self confidence, improves coordination and problem-solving, increases fine motor development and much more – including fostering the basic intrinsic value of developing a love and joy for the arts and music.

Performances are available for each level of study.

PLUS: Join our Practice Club with weekly prizes and chances to win a local area gift certificate twice each year.

PIANO LAB CLASSES

Piano for Little Folks – 4 and 5 year olds (Pre-K, Kinder)
Elementary Piano Lab – 1st through 5th graders

These are introductory piano classes for beginners with up to six students in each class. We teach a notation-based program, focusing on reading music and rhythms, technique, ensembles, and music theory activities. Since the classes are designed for students to progress at their own pace, the teacher helps each student individually on the full-size digital pianos for a small portion of the class during headphone time, and we also play together in ensemble (great for building listening skills and steady rhythm). Parent Performance Days are scheduled throughout the year, and the teacher will assess the student’s progress and recommend private piano lessons at the appropriate time. Students should have a keyboard or piano at home to practice weekly assignments.

Piano Lab Basic Class Activities: 

55 Minute Class, 5 Minutes Parent Time Class Materials: Piano Song Book, Music Theory Workbook.

  • Individual Learning And Assignments (Headphones)
  • Table Activities (Theory Workbooks)
  • Ensemble Playing (Review Songs, Listening, Steady Beat)
  • Games (Flashcards, Marker Board, Rhythm Clapping And Counting)
  • Parent Questions And Assignment Clarification

Classes are designed for students to progress at their own pace. Students receive supplementary books during the year when they are ready to move ahead.
