“Having fun learning to play piano. For 31 years, I thought about taking piano lessons but never got started. Finally I did and I am so glad.

I was always fascinated how all the parts could fit together to create music, melodies, chords, and rhythms. It's like magic. I didn't want to just learn how to play piano, but understand music. Now I do. 

I'm an adult beginner, and have taken lessons here for about a two years. Totally happy with my progress. I was a complete beginner when I started. The lessons are relaxed and not stressful . I now have the confidence to tackle new music. Really happy I have music in my life.”‎ - M. Bertoli 
‎“Both my daughters love playing piano. Their teacher works so well with them and gives them challenging music. They play and singing along. A wide variety of music keeps them interested. They play popular tunes, folk music, classical, and some new age. After a lessons, they are always inspired. Taking piano increases their confidence. A great teacher can sure make it happen.”‎ - Cathy G.
“Our piano teacher is terrific. He really connected with us and our son. Johnny loves playing piano, and taking lessons. I’m very pleased with his progress and am a very happy parent. I particularly like how the lessons cover a wide variety of material and keep my son interested and challenged. 

I think studying piano is absolutely the best thing kids can do to develop their cognitive skills. They acquire the super focus than will enable their success in school, and in many things later in life. A perfect match for us.” - M. Hutchinson 
Looking For A Piano Teacher?
Whether you are looking for adult or children piano or keyboard lessons, finding the right piano teacher is essential. Anyone can learn how to play piano with the right beginning piano course. But choosing the best piano teacher to learn how to play piano, or learn how to play keyboard, is an important decision. A piano instructor should be highly trained to provide beginner piano or beginner keyboard lessons to students of any age. Years of working with hundred’s of students playing piano, gives a piano teacher the experience to help their students succeed, be inspired, and have fun. Your teacher should be extremely patient and encouraging. A good piano instructor will create a supportive, relaxed learning environment. It should be fun.
 
The Right Piano Studio
The right piano studio in Portland is more than just the location. Finding the teacher that you want to work with will make all the difference to you. How quickly will you be learning? Will you be spending much of your time learning boring exercises, or learning new songs? How structured are the lessons? Do they provide for individual preferences. Does your piano teacher give all the students the same songs, or are the lessons designed for each student? Are there at least two acoustic pianos in the studio, so that student and teacher can play duets? Is there a keyboard and equipment the studio that can be used for recording, printing out a score, or recording a CD if the student is interested in that? if you want to learn to play piano or learn to play keyboard, get the right teacher to work with you. It will make all the difference.

Piano Lessons or Keyboard Lessons?
Prospective students often ask whether a keyboard will be alright instead of a piano. Definitely! A keyboard can be a good replacement for a piano. Taking lessons is the same, whether you own a piano or keyboard. 
 
Creative & Inspired Learning
I enjoy teaching beginner and intermediate piano and keyboard students. We play lots of different types of music. I encourage you to have fun, be creative and set up a foundation for a lifetime of music. Feel free to express yourself at the studio. This is a place to be yourself and have an exciting musical adventure. Individual self expression is part of becoming a good piano player.

A Personal Experience
Whether a child or an adult is beginning lessons, the goal is similar. Learn to play the music you like, and thoroughly enjoy the experience. A private, one on one piano lesson provides a unique and personal experience.  Students will get the most from lessons when they are inspired and engaged in learning. Together, we will choose music you enjoy. This will keep you motivated and you will begin to master challenges as they arise.
