LEARN TO PLAY MUSIC YOU ALWAYS DREAMED OF!
My Music Lessons Studio has been offering quality piano instruction in La Mesa and East of San Diego County for over two decades, teaching piano lessons for kids, teenagers, and adults. I have started my piano lessons studio with the vision of creating high-quality piano lessons that inspire people to learn and share the gift of music.
I combine my experience as a classical musician, band performer, and music teacher to create a teaching method that simplifies learning and makes it enjoyable, fun, and educational!

Learning to play piano is one of the most rewarding and enjoyable things you could ever choose to do.
As my student, you will learn to play various styles of music, including Classical, Jazz, Blues, Rock, Pop, and will be instructed in a variety of technical studies for the development of strength and dexterity, along with the fundamentals of music theory, sight reading, and ear training.

My students receive:
A professionally-formed hand position and relaxed, coordinated technique.
Training in phrasing, dynamics, articulation, and form across all musical styles.
The physical freedom to shape tone, emotion, and musical expression.
Core piano skills that support long-term development and artistic growth. Read more...
Kids Piano Lessons
I believe that every child is gifted with untapped potential and so we nurture and develop each child’s capability with personalized lessons to get the most of their unique artistic skills and qualities.
Whether your child is just beginning or working toward the highest levels of achievement, my private piano lessons provide the tools, structure, and inspiration to reach their musical potential.
Piano lessons for kids are tailored to their individual skill level. Students will be able to learn at their own pace in a comfortable and supportive environment.
Adult Piano Lessons
Taking music lessons as an adult is great if you want to bond with your children, or have a productive hobby that stimulates your mind and fingers. Music making makes adults healthier. There are significant decreases in anxiety, depression, and loneliness following music lessons. These are factors that are critical in coping with stress, stimulating the immune system, and in improved health. So, if you have been thinking of taking up piano or any musical activity after all these years… it looks like it’s a great idea! Read More...
