The Purple Piano: Music, Mindfulness & Movement
Piano Lessons
Learn to play your favorite songs with personalized piano lessons in your home!
The piano is an ideal first instrument. Its visual layout helps students understand musical foundations while building skills that transfer naturally to other instruments. With endless opportunities for growth, the piano is a source of creative expression and personal enjoyment that can last a lifetime.
Who Are Piano Lessons For?
We offer piano lessons for children, teens, and adults of all experience levels.
An appropriate age to begin piano lessons is typically between 5 and 7 years old, though we do begin students as young as 4 when they are ready.
Our teachers work with:
-
young beginners
-
teens exploring music more deeply
-
adult beginners
-
experienced musicians
-
singer-songwriters
-
students interested in playing with others
Some of our students wish to just play for fun, and others pursue music more seriously. Let us know your goals and we'll be sure to match you with the right instructor to meet your needs.

Musical Styles

Lessons are designed to follow each student's interests while building strong musical foundations, healthy playing habits, and a lifelong appreciation for music.
Specific curriculums such as Suzuki or ABRSM are available upon request. Many of our teachers use a combination of traditional method books like Faber, Bastien, and Alfred, alongside more progressive methods like Wunderkeys in combination with outside repertoire chosen by the student.
Getting Started With Piano Lessons
Getting started with piano lessons is simple. Students will need:
-
a digital or acoustic piano (a keyboard with 88 weighted keys is ideal)
-
an adjustable bench (this is great for smaller students who need extra height to reach the keys)
-
keyboard stand (if digital piano requires one)
