What To Expect at your First Lesson
- Meet Your Instructor: Your first lesson begins with a casual meet-and-greet where your instructor will learn about your musical background, goals, and interests. This helps us tailor your lessons to your needs.
- Introduction to the Piano: If you’re new to piano, your instructor will guide you through the basics, including hand positioning, posture, and an overview of the keys.
- Basic Exercises: You’ll start with simple exercises to get comfortable with the instrument, such as finger warm-ups and basic scales. If you have prior experience, your instructor will assess your current skill level.
- Learning Your First Piece: Depending on your level, you’ll either begin learning a simple song or refine a piece you’ve been working on. Your instructor will focus on technique, rhythm, and expression.
- Practice Guidance: At the end of the lesson, your instructor will give you practice tips and exercises to help you progress between lessons. You’ll leave feeling motivated and ready to build your skills!
