  • Piano Roots: Building Core Skills

    Are you new to the Piano? Do you have a little experience playing and are still building core foundational skills like learning the musical alphabet, note names and values, finger numbers, and where to find the notes on the keyboard?

Students can expect to spend, on average, up to four terms in a Roots level class before moving on to Rockers level.

  • Piano Rockers: Mastering Core Skills

    Have you been playing the piano for a while and can read the notes on the Grand Staff and identify them on the keyboard? Do you know your finger numbers and note values? This class will help you master these skills and introduce more challenging songs while playing chords, scales, basic tools for improvising, and how to use your right and left hand more fluidly. Students can expect, on average, to spend several terms at the Rockers level, often a full year as they grow and develop their musical strength and confidence.

    Prerequisite: Demonstrate Piano Roots Benchmarks &/or Instructor Recommendation. Ages 6-18.

  • Piano Rollers: Moving Beyond Foundation

    Have you been playing for at least a year and have a solid foundation on your instrument? Rollers students move beyond foundational skills into more advanced mastery of the piano. This class also focuses on skills necessary for playing in an ensemble or band. Length of time in a Rollers class varies from student to student depending on independent goals. Students who have mastered the Rollers benchmarks typically move into private lessons and/or rock bands.

    Prerequisite: Must demonstrate Piano Rollers Benchmarks success or have instructor recommendations. Ages 6-12.

    • Ages:
      6-12
