I took piano lessons here for many years from a young age. All of the teachers at Encore are very knowledgeable and will give you the tools to develop your skills if you put the work in. Brad in particular was very supportive of my interest in songwriting and continued to be my best resource even at a more advanced level of playing. I highly recommend!
