My daughter started with group piano lessons, and has moved to a private lesson. She is 8 and has enjoyed her lessons and her teachers. She doesn't always have a lot of an attention span, but she loves the lessons and stays engaged and interested in playing piano. We have had a couple different teachers, and they have all been great. During the lesson, parents sit outside the rooms, which have a glass window in front. There are chairs and tables to sit at, as well as Wi-Fi. One of the things I love about GMA is they communicate so well. They are easy to get in touch with and I always receive a friendly, prompt response. They have worked with me to change our class time when we had a conflict because of a change of our swim practice time and work through other scheduling questions. My daughter has learned a lot since she started her piano lessons, and she is enthusiastic about continuing. My other daughter will also be taking lessons there as well and we look forward to continuing at GMA.

The Music Studio provides lessons in music fundamentals for children beginning at age 4 and group…read moreand private piano lessons for children through high school. There is also a limited adult learning program. My daughters started at The Music Studio at age 4 with music fundamentals that links musical games and activities to learning rhythms, notes and the very basics of keyboards. I don't think the kids realize they are learning as the group lessons are fun. After 2 years in fundamentals, the girls went on to creative keyboarding, which continues the group atmosphere but is focused on piano keyboarding; students are required to practice daily to support the in-class lessons. There is also a recital where students perform individually. After completing the 4 years of group instruction, some continue on to private lessons. The complexity of music pieces increases, and students have 3 recitals plus an evaluation where three pieces of music from different periods are performed for outside evaluators. The teachers are highly skilled and dedicated. All have bachelors or higher degrees in music and piano.

Eh, why not. I think I wasn't born for piano, so why give it only three when they really tried?read more
