Fancy some piano lessons in Manchester?
Our piano school in Manchester
Our piano school in Manchester was recently established and we’re so excited to see it all come together. With our guidance, we will help you choose your goals and then to achieve them. We have a number of options and paths that you can explore or perhaps you might want to look at an ABRSM exam, either way, we will have an understanding teacher ready to guide you in this tricky and sometimes bewildering array of choices.
Many of our students come to us having played before, studying on their own. This is very common with all of the fantastic and free resources such as YouTube. That said, these resources can only take you so far and almost without exception we find enthusiastic learners can become frustrated when they can’t break through the terminology or have a concept explained in other ways they may find easier to understand. You can save significant amounts of time with a teacher who can offer you direction and quick solutions that you can put into practice straight away. Alongside this, our students and teachers enjoy a welcoming place to share their musical journeys. With regular concerts planned and other events, we offer you a place to meet others and share that journey too.
Please get in touch for more information or to book your free 1st piano lesson with a Manchester piano teacher near you.
