Piano Lessons North Shore is very good, expert music teacher and performer. You can be assured you're in good hands. I'm in Crows Nest and the relaxed studio filled with art work is only 5 minute drive with ample parking

Mike is an awesome teacher for kids and adult. Not only Mike is an exceptional professional himself, he's very patience and has unique techniques to teach and motivates his students. Mike is also very flexible and will tailor the course for individuals' needs. He's great in simplifying complex concepts to young children. I'm so pleased to see my 5 years old son progress with his guitar skills and my 10 years old daughter grows her enthusiasm with piano; and my husband uncovering his musical talents. All star teacher!!

After playing piano for 15 years and taking a break of 10 it's great to finally be back. I feel I'm getting closer to the level I used to be and better than before each lesson. If you want to learn piano then this is the place to be.

Mike is an excellent Piano Teacher. I've tried teaching myself using YouTube and various apps with no success. If you want to get results and learn the piano correctly I advise you come and see Mike.

Beginner Piano Lessons North Shore and Sydney CBD

Welcome to your first step into the rewarding world of piano!

If you’ve ever looked at a keyboard and felt a mix of curiosity and intimidation, these beginner piano lessons are crafted with you in mind.

No prior musical experience is needed – just a willingness to learn and a passion for creating sound.

We’ll start right from the basics, from identifying the notes to understanding simple rhythms, building a solid foundation that will empower you to enjoy playing the piano from your very first lesson.

At your first piano lesson, we’ll discuss your expectations and tailor a course that’s right for you

Beginner pianists can expect to learn: Music notes, Piano rhythm and chords, Music technique and Songs

Improvement and progress will be a combination of practice, motivation and by having an experienced teacher give a structured, fun, informable piano lesson.

Intermediate and Advanced Piano Lessons

For pianists who have mastered the fundamentals and are eager to elevate their artistry, intermediate and advanced piano lessons offer a transformative journey beyond basic proficiency

This course is not merely about learning new pieces; it’s about cultivating a nuanced understanding of music theory, refining highly developed techniques, and empowering you to express your unique artistic voice

Designed for those committed to serious growth, these lessons will push the boundaries of your current abilities and elevate your musicianship to professional or concert-level standards

Online Piano Lessons

Learning to play the piano, once a pursuit often limited by geography and rigid schedules, has been dramatically transformed by the digital age.

This innovative approach is empowering countless individuals to finally pursue their musical dreams without the traditional barriers.

Preschooler Music Lessons

For young children, music isn’t just a sound; it’s a language, a rhythm deeply ingrained in their very being

This natural inclination makes preschooler music lessons not merely an extracurricular activity, but a powerful avenue for holistic development

Beyond fostering an appreciation for melodies and beats, these early musical experiences lay crucial foundations, enhancing cognitive skills, refining motor coordination, and nurturing emotional expression, offering an engaging and joyful path that profoundly impacts their growth long before they ever pick up a formal instrument.
