About	Hi! I’m Karen. I love sharing the joy of piano with kids and adults alike. Learning piano opens so much up in the brain: it improves motor skills, the ability to multi-task, builds confidence, concentration, gives relief from stress, boosts memory and helps make it easier to learn new things. Music brings joy! I took traditional lessons for years as a kid. I’m delighted to have found this program. I began teaching my own children several years ago . During the pandemic, I opened up a Zoom Piano studio and have lots of students now who meet with me weekly and explore new skills and patterns on their keyboards and pianos. I have also opened my home studio to accommodate in-person lessons. Why not join me? I have lots of day time openings and some evening spaces.
