MAYBE YOU'VE HEARD...

There are many benefits to learning to play the piano.

Learning the piano demands so much mental concentration and stimulation that players' brains are actually structured differently. Playing the piano strengthens the connection between the right & left hemispheres of the brain.

Learning piano develops self-discipline, confidence and increased academic skills. It also reduces fatigue, anxiety and depression and is an outlet for emotional expression.

Increased thickness in parts of the brain responsible for executive funcioning means that students have strong memories, attentional control and organizational skills.

Sometimes we put things off for a more "convenient time". (I find that when I do that...there isn't really ever a more convenient time.)

Why now?

• There's so many tremendous benefits to introducing students to piano lessons at a young age, and with the flexibility of this program you can decide how much/how little your student is ready for and adjust the program to fit his developmental needs and abilties as you take into consideration your own family's schedule.
• You secure the current price so that when the membership cost eventually goes up, you're still locked in at the low price!

Can I Use This Course for Siblings? Absolutely! One membership can be utilized for your entire household. If you’d like to set up individual logins with individual progress trackers for each child, there is a $5/month additional charge per account within the same household.  

Do I Need to Know How to Play The Piano in Order to Help My Child Through This Course? NOPE! Because of the nature of the course, you will be able to learn concepts along with your child, and I’ve created lots of supportive materials to help you oversee your child’s progress. If you watch the videos with your child, you will learn all the new concepts along with him. At the end of each lesson’s materials is a PARENT CHECKLIST to help you ensure your child is ready to progress to the next lesson. I’ve also created a Parent Guide, with specific notes, practice suggestions and things to watch for that correspond with every lesson.

Does My Child Need a Fancy Piano For Practicing? Fancy pianos are fun to play on, but definitely not required in order to move through this course. A keyboard or digital piano with weighted keys is perfectly fine to get started!  

Do I Have To Purchase Books for My Child to Take The Lessons? Your subscription includes all the pages of music, theory and bonus materials — everything your child will need to complete the lessons in the course. The only additional material I might suggest (besides a piano, of course) would be a rhythm instrument, such as a tambourine, drum, triangle or wood block.

Will I Have Access To You as My Piano Instructor? Yes! I am active on the comments within each module and on our members-only Facebook group on weekdays to give feedback and offer additional tips and value. I also do montly livecasts for members.  

What if My Student Has Had Previous Lessons? No problem! We can make sure your student finds a good starting point within my program. The members’ dashboard includes a brief student assessment to help gauge which level is appropriate for your student. You can also e-mail me with specific questions regarding previous methods and experience so that we can tailor the program to meet your student’s needs.  

Any Contracts or Commitments? Nope. You can upgrade or cancel your account anytime and for any reason. If you cancel before the end of the billing period, you'll retain access until that period is over.
