LEARN TO PLAY THE PIANO!

PIANO LESSONS FOR BEGINNERS

Our inclusive group and private piano lessons for clients ages 4 years and older are unique from other studios. Instructors at A Child’s Song primarily draw from the Bernard and Carolyn Shaak Method of piano instruction.  Learning to speak and play before reading is the foundation of all language.

The Shaak Piano Method is unique because it first teaches children to play by ear. This gives students the foundational freedom to create music in any environment.

At three to six months of training, students move on to additional, progressive method books and classes/ lessons to learn sight-reading and become proficient using sheet music.

As skills improve, we offer opportunities for performing and playing in ensembles.

INTERMEDIATE AND ADVANCED PIANO LESSONS

Our intermediate and advanced piano lessons are tailored to build on the skills that students have developed through their previous beginner group and private lessons. Our accomplished piano instructors help students hone their abilities and better implement cooperative play with ensembles and jam sessions with other instrumentalists. Students also play more advanced selections from their favorite musicians so they can recognize and appreciate their progress more widely.
