Our Goal: To help every student find the magic in playing music.

PIANO

Ages:     ​Beginners to adults.
RCM Study:    A student does not need exams to learn how to play a musical instrument. However, for some students having a goal, such as an RCM examination, may help you become and stay more focused and motivated.  The Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) is widely recognized as one of the most prominent music institutions. Upon completing an exam, students move onto the next grade level.
Non-RCM:    Don't want RCM examinations? No problem.  We welcome students who want to take lessons simply for the joy of learning to make music.
*Advanced in Music?:  Explore other styles of music, including R&B, jazz, rock, and fusion. Learn to combine your keyboard knowledge with cutting edge keyboard-based technology.  *Price for class will be dependent upon program.

 Music facilitates learning in other subjects.  It enhances language development and  increases spatial-temporal skills which are beneficial in areas such as math and computer work. Music also helps with memory and attention, builds self-confidence, and improves motor coordination as well as cognitive function.
