Group Piano Lessons
Learn to Self-Accompany with confidence.
About the Class
Our group piano class alternates between online and in-person formats and runs once we have six sign-ups. The class is offered on a donation basis—participation is free, and donations are warmly welcomed to support our teachers and studio resources. Once six students express interest, we’ll coordinate a class time to be announced via email to our sign up list.
