There is a huge selection of offerings besides just piano. From our experience the learning and pace of the lessons adjust to the students. Children may or may not want to do competitions but it's up to them and how they feel which is great! This studio is managed by a group of people that love what they do and that is instilling an art upon a student. It's great to see the child develop from just tinkering a few keys to recitals. These performances give and teach children confidence to carry them as they grow. Rates do vary but the lessons are worth it The art of learning is priceless.

Also because my kiddo's classmate manhandled my first 'ukulele when he came over for a play date and now it has a permanent crack in the body :( I really wanted to get the factory tour but we were running late from lunch and decided to pop by anyway and just see if I could buy a new uke. I've always wanted a koa wood uke and Koaloha's have so many models of koa wood! I also love that they're family run and owned and specially handcrafted. Even though we were far too late for their regularly scheduled tours, none other than owner and CEO Alan totally let us get a quick tour and we were super impressed with everything we learned about Koaloha 'ukulele. These are truly magical works of art and the love and care the whole team puts into making these 'ukulele is so admirable. We got a guest appearance of the patriarch of Koaloha walking in at the end of our tour and were graciously helped out by VP Brian who helped me secure my new koa wood long neck soprano uke. The factory price is great and I got a discount on the case since I was getting an uke today too and I am a new fan! Mahalo to the whole team!

We got a wee off topic, as things do when you are enjoying company, and ended up discussing history, mechanics, maintenance, and intricate/nuanced details- all things I am interested in as it is part of my job- just in a different application. This was a fascinating conversation from a music perspective. I really feel he was born to teach and pass the gift onto others. He was even so kind to call back and connect me with someone who plays at a church in need of a piano! How perfect was that! He is a great conversationist, and a wealth of knowledge. I learned so much today. Thank you Keith! If you'd like to hear him play, he is at The Signature, Friday through Tuesday evening. But, Im sure if you ask, he would gladly show you what your future piano is capable of. No matter your price point, he can find the right fit for you. :)
