By putting students into small groups in the beginning, we give them a chance to share the learning experience with others. This creates a built-in support team of friends and encourages children to practice. Activities include music-oriented games, EZ music theory, and ear-training. Classes are progressive: Piano 1, the beginner's class is followed by Piano 2, etc. Each student has access to a piano or keyboard in class; however, a piano or keyboard is needed to practice at home. Mindful of gradual reopening, we reduced the size of the group to 3-4 students for in-person classes. Students meet once a week for 35 minutes class. Lab Fee: $25 payable to instructor at 1st class.

Instructor will supply the nylon collar.

It is natural to feel anxious during these difficult times and Wysa is an App that can support emotional health, relieve stress and anxiety through a variety of calming activities.
