I run a home-based piano studio where I offer high-quality professional music lessons. I have over thirty years of music experience, including teaching all levels of performing and have earned several degrees in music and the arts. I teach an ergonomically correct technique, which is unusual in this area, and which is both fluid and very effective for creating a rich piano sound. This method is also excellent for avoiding the physical problems and discomfort which can attend piano playing. This approach is especially helpful for students, from beginning to advanced, who would like to solve the complex technical and sound control problems encountered with their instrument. The method includes Alexander technique approaches, which are especially good for all students who want to avoid serious injuries and pain from improper technical training. Many of my students place in Bay Area competitions, score highly in exams, and several have gone on to careers in music. And, the music lessons are a great way to improve a student’s creativity and structural learning skills. My lesson format includes:
- An individually-crafted lesson approach
- Highly-structured lessons with an emphasis on musicality
- Fluid technical mastery reflecting good body mechanics
- Study of music theory, history and ear-training
- Complimentary monthly performance classes
- Preparation for performances and competitions if desired
I teach all ages and levels.
