Children & Teens
Learning to play the piano will improve a young child’s coordination skills because unlike many other musical instruments, the piano requires both hands to independently play the keys. While the right hand may be playing a melody, the left hand may be keeping a slow beat.
Not only do the hands work independently of each other, but so do the fingers. Lessons will include exercises to develop small motor coordination and independent finger control.
There is a very strong correlation between music and math skills. Music involves ratios, fractions, proportions and thinking in space and time. Piano students are better prepared to comprehend mathmatical and scientific concepts.
Adults
Studies have shown that teaching healthy adults to play music decreases their anxiety, depression and loneliness.
Learning to play the piano develops physical coordination, mental concentration, memory skills, visual and aural abilities. Age is not a barrier to learning, and learning keeps the mind alert.
Music has the power to lower your pulse and blood pressure, and reduce anxiety.
