Kids Piano Classes

We teach the underlying concepts of playing the piano. The music theory that creates every song we know. First, we learn how to identify notes, what makes a scale, and what makes a chord. Once we understand chords, we learn the basic chord progressions that make up most songs and music. We practice rhythm, learning different beats and how to put them on the piano.

People actually see results extremely fast using this method, and then they get to the part they love - making music - before they get bored and quit.

Once people feel they can express their emotions through an instrument, it's magical.
