Piano Lessons

I am an experienced teacher who knows how to make the time you spend at the piano rewarding and productive. I will show you how to practice efficiently and develop the capacity for active listening.    My way of teaching piano integrates whole body movement with musicianship and piano technique.  I have informal recitals which give my students a chance to perform in a friendly supportive setting.

For children piano lessons open up a love of creative expression and encourage motivation, focus and attention.  

​"For my first lesson, I remember playing the upright Kimball piano in my home's entryway.  With my feet dangling in the air and my body shaking with excitement, the first song I played was Two Black Ants."

My lessons will give you a sytematic approach to learning.  The ability to read music is deeply satisfying and empowering.  Using a keyboard is a basic skill for all musicians.  

Some of my students have studied piano and are coming back to renew and deepen how they make music.  I know how to make piano lessons friendly and successful for beginners.  Starting piano lessons as an adult is a gift to yourself that opens up new horizons and creativity.

Playing the piano is beneficial for
Seniors. 
It exercises the memory, muscles and and your body as it lifts spirits and gives beauty and meaning to daily living.

​ There is no such thing as being too old to learn!

​Making music develops a sense of flow, memory and timing. Piano lessons are a gift of quality time and personal development.
