Chia P. says, "Sandra taught piano to both of our children starting at around 5-6 years old, through highschool. She was referred by a friend who’s daughter took lessons. We have fantastic memories of Sandra hosting musical recitals with our children, both in our own homes and in venues Sandra selected on the area. Incredible fun. Some of her students must be Chopin protégés! Somehow my son convinced Sandra to teach him guitar. This started a whole new musical journey. When my adult age kids come home, Rob and I are ‘blessed’ with their enthusiasm to tickle the ivories! As adults, they still can sit down at a piano, read music and deliver a fun and lively session. And, we have an abundance of ‘Mrs Wilmer stories’. Not only was Sandra a top notch instructor, but a firm, effective (and fun) disciplinarian. We enjoyed all of those years, Sandra! Thank you!

Recent success stories from people in the Sacramento area.

Brian I.

I took Jazz Piano lessons with Reggie Graham and he had many helpful things to teach me about playing Jazz Piano. Not only teaching me how to play what's on the sheet on a technical level, he talked about why the chords in the songs were arranged the way they were, what kinds of patterns to look for when approaching a piece for the first time, and how to improvise and turn a song into my own. Moreover, he has great insight, a fantastic attitude, and an infectious passion for the art. I would strongly recommend The Piano Lab for students of all levels of experience.
