Common questions

Piano FAQ.

Do I need a real piano to start?

A weighted 88-key keyboard is fine for the first 6-12 months. We'll help you pick one — or you can rent through our studio with free lessons included.

Can adults learn piano from scratch?

Absolutely — over half our piano students started as adults. We build lessons around music you actually want to play, so progress feels rewarding from week one.

How old should kids be to start piano?

We recommend starting around age 5-6 when hand size and focus align. We use fun, story-based materials to keep young students engaged.

Do you teach both classical and jazz?

Yes. Classical, jazz, pop, film scores, musical theatre, and your own compositions. Tell us what you want to play and we'll build around it.

How often should I practice?

20-30 minutes, 4-5 days a week is the sweet spot for steady progress. We give you a focused practice plan at every lesson — no guesswork.

Are online piano lessons effective?

Very — especially for adult learners. We use dual-camera setups for keyboard and face view, plus shared screen for sheet music and theory.
