Group Instrumental Lessons
Piano / Guitar / Violin
Piano / Keyboard
We use the Mayron Cole Piano Method for children
of this age group. This is the leading group piano method
in the United States. This method is the most developmentally
appropriate and easiest way for children to learn to read
music while learning the fundamentals of playing a keyboard. Learn more about the 3 Key Steps
to Learning to Play the Piano.
Keyboard classes are taught in small groups. Games, note reading, ensemble playing,
and rhythm activities will be used to help your child retain
the concepts taught. The goal of this program is to provide
students with true musical literacy and this approach appeals to different learning styles and activity levels.
Classes are grouped by ages: 5-6 years, 6-8
years, and 8-12 years. We also have classes available based
on levels; Menehune, 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, etc.
If your child has
been receiving lessons using the Mayron Cole Piano Method,
please contact us and we can integrate them into the appropriate
class level.
If your child has had prior lessons not using
the Mayron Cole Piano Method, please contact us for a free
assessment so we can place your child in the correct class.
There is a recital for parents and several
opportunities to perform in the community at the end of
each semester. Classes are 45 minutes, once a week, for
18 weeks. All classes are maximum 5 students.
