The studio
Good listening.
Small steps.
A calm lesson, a clear plan for the week and room to ask the same question twice.
We start by listening.
What made you want to play? What do you like hearing? What fits into the rest of your week? Those answers help us choose music and a pace that make sense for you.
We teach one student at a time. A lesson includes listening, playing and a few minutes to agree on what to practice next. You leave with a short plan, not a page full of vague instructions.
For younger players.
Parents and guardians are welcome to sit in. We keep the practice plan short and explain how you can help at home without becoming the teacher.
A parent or guardian handles all inquiries, scheduling and payment for children. Please share only an age range in the first request.
For grown-up beginners.
You do not need to make up for lost time. We can begin with a familiar tune or one skill you’ve always wanted to learn.
If you’re returning after a break, bring a piece you remember. It gives us a useful place to begin.
A little playing, shared.
Our spring and fall studio recitals are small, informal gatherings. Playing is optional; listening counts as taking part too.

The first lesson is a chance to meet, try an instrument and decide what comes next.
