Music Lessons

Our piano instruction covers classical technique, contemporary styles, and music theory integrated throughout your learning. Whether you're drawn to Bach, jazz standards, or modern compositions, we build a foundation that supports whatever direction your interests take you.

Lessons cover proper hand position, sight reading, scales, chord progressions, and musical interpretation. Advanced students explore improvisation, composition, and performance preparation.

Acoustic and electric guitar instruction covering fingerstyle, strumming patterns, lead playing, and improvisation. We work across genres from folk and classical to rock and blues.

Beginners start with basic chords and simple songs that sound good quickly. As you progress, we introduce barre chords, scales, music theory, and more complex techniques tailored to your musical goals.

Rhythm fundamentals, coordination development, and playing across multiple genres. Lessons include rudiments, reading drum notation, developing independence between limbs, and building your vocabulary of fills and grooves.

We have acoustic drum kits available, and we can also work with students using electronic kits at home. Practice pads are an effective tool for developing technique between full kit sessions.

Bowing technique, intonation, and repertoire from baroque to contemporary. Violin requires patience in the early stages as your ear and muscle memory develop, but the rewards are substantial.

We use a combination of classical method books and pieces selected for your interests. Young students often start with Suzuki or similar approaches, while adult learners may prefer a more theoretical foundation from the beginning.

Breath control, embouchure development, and technique for alto or tenor saxophone. Jazz phrasing, improvisation, and reading lead sheets feature prominently, though we also cover classical repertoire.

The saxophone is relatively approachable for beginners compared to some wind instruments, and progress in the first months can be quite encouraging. We can advise on instrument rental or purchase options.

Vocal technique, breathing exercises, pitch control, and performance skills. Whether your interest lies in classical, musical theatre, pop, or other styles, we develop healthy vocal production that protects your voice while expanding your range and control.

Lessons include warm-ups, technical exercises, and repertoire work. We also address performance anxiety and stage presence for those interested in singing publicly.
