Renata is an absolutely amazing piano teacher. She’s so patient and intuitive with me (I’m an adult student with zero experience) and she has totally helped me put my insecurities about starting an instrument in my 30’s aside. She’s actually made me feel confident that I can achieve my goals. I am excited to see all I’ll continue to learn with her leading the way!

I came into Danny's lessons as an experienced player, and I think he does a great job of identifying areas of improvement and exposing me to new ways of thinking about music, not just guitar. Danny has a welcoming personality and I look forward to chatting and getting guidance every week. I would recommend Danny to anyone who is looking to improve their ear, their technique and groove.

Karl is an outstanding piano instructor. His expertise goes far beyond just teaching you how to play notes in a piece. He teaches you the intricacies of the piece, focusing on tone, interpretation, and precision that allows you to tell the story within the music. He is an outstanding musician and educator. I highly recommend.
