Class Experience

🎹 Do you have a family piano that’s gathering dust in the living room?
🎵 Does your child want to play piano but doesn’t know where to start?
❤️ Do they love music but are intimidated by the idea of learning an
instrument?
 
Then, come join me for an ongoing private piano lesson where we will master foundational music skills in a fun and approachable format!
 
I believe EVERYONE is musical - they just need the right tools to tap into their inner musician! My goal is for each student who works with me to come away feeling competent and confident in their piano playing. Each lesson is tailored to the student's individual needs in order to help them achieve success in their playing.
