It's Never Too Late To Learn
First Time Adult Students
Any skill level. Any age. Any way that works for you. We build around your personal level of experience to structure your lessons and maximize their effectiveness. Whether you’re coming back to the piano or just starting out, we’re happy to help you learn to play with confidence.
We frequently hear from students who say they would love to learn the piano, but are sure that they’re too old to pick up a musical instrument. But, our experience with countless adult students, some of whom are well into retirement age, has shown us that no one is too old to enrich their lives with the piano. No matter how little you know about music or pianos, we’ll build a lesson plan that gradually introduces you to the basics in a fun way that puts you on the path towards playing the music you love.
ADULT STUDENTS RETURNING TO THE PIANO
Many of our students played piano earlier in their lives and fell out of practice over the years. We understand that it can be frustrating to come back to a skill you once had, to find that you’re not nearly as advanced as you once were. But we can turn that frustration into joy with lessons and exercises that help you relearn the piano and regain the joy it once gave you. Whether you’re looking for a hobby to keep your work/life balance in harmony or a way to stay active in retirement, learning the piano is a great choice.

Why Learn To Play The Piano?
Mental Benefits Of Learning To Play Piano
Aside from the obvious benefit of being able to play music that you love to express yourself and bring joy into your life and the lives of others, learning to play the piano has many scientifically studied benefits. According to medical researchers at Northwestern University, and elsewhere, playing musical instruments can help slow and even reverse the decline of brain processing power, hearing loss, and memory loss. Our minds and our ears don’t work as well as we age, but the stimulation of playing a musical instrument keeps our mental and auditory faculties sharper. The key takeaway here is that if you feel like you’re too old to learn the piano, you may have it backwards. Rather than worrying about whether you’re young enough to learn, you should focus on how much younger learning and playing the piano can make you feel.
Physical Benefits Of Learning To Play The Piano
According to a study conducted by the School of Biosciences at Cardiff University, learning to play the piano can strengthen hand muscles and improve hand-eye coordination. This improvement to manual dexterity and coordination is a huge plus for older students learning the piano. Just like with the cognitive benefits above, people often have it backwards. Rather than worrying that you might not have the strength and coordination to play piano, you should know that practicing and playing actually improve both of those things. Playing the piano isn’t exclusively for people with perfect health. It’s actually an activity that can help improve your physical health if you stick with it.
Playing The Piano Has Been Proven To Reduce Stress And Anxiety In Older Adults
We’d all like to have happier, more stress-free lives. That’s one of the main reasons why our older students like learning to play the piano. Studying music, solving problems, and seeing yourself develop and advance, contributes to a sense of well-bring and positivity that carries over into other parts of life. A study in the journal, Frontiers in Psychology compared mood changes in older adults participating in a variety of leisure activities ranging from exercise to playing the piano. The study found that the older adults who had four months of piano lessons experienced decreased depression, improved psychological quality of life, and had more positive mood states. The combination of mental and physical exercise we experience when playing the piano stimulates our bodies and minds in wholesome and healthy ways. It’s the perfect hobby for adults looking to express themselves while taking care of their health.
