During this pandemic, it may be an ideal time to return to the piano or learn from scratch. If you are a life-long learner pursuing an unfulfilled desire or have a young student studying for the first time, Piano Study will not only soothe your soul, it will provide you with a learning outlet that will provide a tremendous sense of accomplishment.
There are so many reasons to study piano, from the brain-enhancing aspects of music and hand-eye coordination benefits to the responsibility and pride that develop with a commitment to a discipline. (see 10 Reasons Why Music Education is Essential from Broward County Music Teachers Association, in our Gallery.) Children who are given the opportunity to learn about and create music tend toward greater academic achievements and enjoy a stronger sense of positive self-esteem.
I have been teaching music through my studio for over 40 years, and find tremendous joy in working with beginner, intermediate and advanced pianists of all ages, as well as special needs children. Nothing makes me more proud than watching and listening to a student perform a piece they love as they transcend from simply “playing” to experiencing the exhilaration of beautifully shaping phrases and painting a musical picture.
Most of my students balance their piano lessons with sports or other extracurricular activities, so we accommodate resulting schedule conflicts.
Whether you are young or old, experienced or just beginning – simply come with a love of the energized feeling created by music!
Warmly,
Renée LaBonte
