What is the best age to start piano lessons?

Learning piano is for all ages, from kids to seniors alike! But when taking piano lessons, it is best to start at an age where children have adequately sized hands (can occupy at least 5 keys), sufficient motor skills to move their fingers independently, and an interest to learn. For some, the best age might be around 5 to 6, but others can start as early as 3, especially if they already know the first 7 letters of the alphabet!

Is it necessary to have any musical ability before starting piano lessons?

Every great musician started with no musical ability, so no background is needed! Enrolling in piano lessons without prior musical knowledge is perfectly fine. We’ll not only help get you started on the right foot, but more importantly, we’ll also help encourage and sustain your child’s desire to keep learning.

Do I need to have a piano before starting piano lessons?

Yes and no! While an acoustic piano is best for practice, it is not a requirement. However, you need to have some kind of practice instrument. For beginners, a weighted electronic keyboard can suffice.

Should I buy a piano or a keyboard for piano lessons?

A few things to consider when buying a piano include the cost, your home’s space, and how serious you are about taking piano lessons. Acoustic pianos tend to be more expensive and bigger, while digital keyboards are more light and compact and cost considerably less than acoustic pianos.

For the beginning stages, you may opt for a good-quality keyboard. See our recommended digital keyboards. Once you progress in your lessons, learning on an acoustic piano is recommended.

How long does it take to be a good pianist?

Being able to play the piano considerably well depends on how much you practice. To progress quickly, you should be able to practice every day for at least 15 minutes. See our tips for being a better pianist.

If you aim to play songs comfortably, you may get to a good level in 2 to 3 years. If being a concert pianist is your goal, it can take more hours, even decades, of work. What’s important is having the motivation to refine your skills!

Can parents sit in on piano lessons?

Absolutely! We understand that children might be hesitant to go to piano lessons for the first few weeks, and we allow parents to sit in to observe and encourage them as they practice.

How long should you practice for your piano lessons?

It is important to practice every day! The practice duration for each student varies depending on their age and level. But as a good rule of thumb, every piano student should practice every day for at least 15 minutes. For beginners, it could take as much as 15 to 20 minutes a day, while more advanced students take 45 minutes to an hour.
