You and Your Children Need Music Lessons
If anyone is spending over 2 hours a day on the screen, it's weakening their focus and memory. That's true for your child; it's true for you.
No parent wants that for their child. And as adults, we just use screen time to fill the void - instead of challenging ourselves, growing and getting joy.
Either way, you or your child deserve to nurture your heart & your brain better.
Learning piano has been linked by multiple studies to an increase in IQ in children - in those between 5 and 11 by as much as 20 IQ points! (That's the difference between population average and Oxford or Cambridge average). It has also a strong link with a reduction in dementia symptoms in older learners.
Singing is incredible for emotional connection, breath connection & also brain and body development. Our lead singing tutor, Michael, works every week with singers from the age of 5 to over 90!
We offer fun but challenging lessons, where children - or their parents & other adults - actually progress, use their brains - and enjoy doing so!

Piano Lessons Near Me FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions About Learning The Piano
Q: What is the appropriate age to begin piano lessons?
A: There is no set age for children as every child develops at their own pace. However, it is generally recommended that children start piano lessons after the age of 5 or 6. From this age, children have usually developed the fine motor skills and attention span necessary to begin learning an instrument. It's also important to consider a child's interest and motivation in learning piano.
For adults, there is no minimum and no maximum age. We've had successful students start in their 20s through to their 70s.
Q: Must you be able to read sheet music to learn the piano?
A: Reading sheet music is an important skill for a pianist, although it is not essential to know how to read sheet music in order to learn piano.
Some students may prefer to learn by ear, or by using chord charts and other instructional materials that do not require reading sheet music.
However, learning to read sheet music can greatly enhance a student's understanding of music and their ability to play a wider range of pieces. Many piano teachers will teach reading sheet music alongside other aspects of piano playing, so it's a skill that can be developed gradually as the student progresses.
Q: How long does it typically take for a student to become proficient at playing the piano?
A: Learning to play the piano can take different amounts of time for different people. For some, it might take a few months to learn the basics, like how to sit and hold their hands on the piano. For others, it might take longer. But with lots of practice and good lessons, you can get better and better at playing the piano. It can take a while to learn how to play songs that are more difficult, but with time and practice, you'll get there!
Q: What do you need to think about before starting piano lessons for your kids?
A: If parents are considering piano lessons for their children, it is important to make sure that the child is interested and motivated to learn. It is also important to find a qualified and experienced piano teacher who can tailor lessons to the child's individual needs and learning style.
Additionally, it's important to establish a regular practice routine (4-5 days a week) and to create a supportive and encouraging learning environment at home.
Q: What kind of skills and techniques are taught in a piano lesson?
A: You or your child can expect to learn a variety of technical and theoretical skills.
These may include proper posture and hand positioning, finger exercises, scales and arpeggios, chord progressions, and interpreting sheet music.
Additionally, students will work on pieces to improve their performance skills, musical expression and interpretation of the composition.
Lessons also include music theory, ear training, and sight-reading.
The student's level, goals and interests will determine the specific focus and pace of the lesson.
Q: Is musical talent a requirement for playing the piano?
A: It is not necessary to have innate musical ability to learn how to play the piano. While some people may have a natural aptitude for music, others may need to work harder to develop their skills.
However, with consistent practice, we know from experience that anyone can learn to play the piano to a certain level of proficiency. A good piano teacher can help to develop a student's skills, regardless of their starting point.
Q: Do I need to buy a piano for me or my child to learn?
A: While you don't need to own a piano before you start lessons, once your child starts lessons, it is essential to own some kind of keyboard instrument for your child to progress.
You don't have to have an acoustic piano (a "proper" mechanical one) but you will need to invest in at least a digital piano with weighted keys, which mimics the key feel of an acoustic piano.
They are relatively inexpensive these days (starting from £150 for a secondhand instrument) and we can advise you on models and sourcing instruments
