Our piano students get to study on concert-level instruments. Our Schiller concert series pianos provide the ultimate lesson experience. Students gain the benefit of proper form and technique. Not to mention, the better an instrument sounds, the more the student wants to play. Aside from hard work and expert instruction, playing a good sounding instrument is one of the most important determiners of student success. Go ahead, sign up and give one of our Schiller concert pianos a try.
Come enjoy your visit in our spacious, comfortable lobby complete with Wi-Fi, Kids Zone, and vending machine. Grab a seat at one of our tables to get some work done and grab a snack from brand new vending machine. And for the kiddos, we've got a Lego table, coloring sheets, and a book nook. Of course, we encourage parents to sit in on their child's lesson anytime they'd like.
Who wants to use a dirty restroom? Not us, and not our customers. That’s why we do regular restroom checks to ensure our facilities are in tip-top shape.
We search far and wide across the Twin Cities and beyond to find the most talented, dedicated, and kind instructors. Then, we provide high-level professional development training to ensure each of our instructors are equipped to meet both our educational, and customer service standards. We are the only school in the area that provides such comprehensive training to our faculty. Give us try, and we are confident our team will meet or exceed your expectations.
Many music studios leave the front desk unstaffed. Or even worse, staffed by the answering machine. Not us. We are fully committed to customer service. Our customers are welcomed by name at each visit and enjoy professional customer service at every visit.
We only want to work with students who truly want to be here. That’s why we offer month-to-month lessons. Our customers are enrolled on monthly recurring agreements with no long-term commitments. Want to discontinue lessons? No problem. We’ll be sad to see you go, but we’ll make it easy with no penalties. Just let us know by the 15th of the month that you’ll be discontinuing and we’ll take care of the rest. It’s that easy!
