Why Private Lessons?

 The benefits of learning a musical instrument are vast to say the least; from stress relief to improved brain power, whether you are a child or an adult, learning a musical instrument is in everyone’s best interest! Here are some interesting reasons why YOU should start learning an instrument TODAY!

 

• PLAYING MUSIC MAKES YOU SMARTER: Scientists say that children who play an instrument do better in school than those who do not. “Musical activity involves nearly every region of the brain that we know about, and nearly every neural subsystem” – Daniel J. Levitin author of This Is Your Brain On Music. Recent research suggests exposure to music may benefit a child’s reading age, IQ and the development of certain parts of the brain. Adults benefit from learning music as well because it keeps the brain active and aware so that you can continue to stay sharp.
• DISCIPLINE: The routine of practicing music on a regular basis with specific objectives to meet for weekly lessons instills discipline in students. They can carry this discipline and use it for other activities! Musicians are self sufficient.
• STRESS RELIEF: For the aspiring adult student, practicing a musical instrument is a great way to get away without having to go anywhere. Taking the time to sit down and play through some music is soothing and takes your mind off of the daily grind.
• FUN: Playing music is fun for everyone! Whether you are playing by yourself or are getting some friends together to jam, music is a great way to have fun while growing mentally! One of the greatest rewards that comes from dedicated practice is the ability to compose your own music and share it with others!
• ENCOURAGEMENT: And with the right teacher – you’ll get all of these benefits with help along the way. We want to help keep you accountable to keep learning

The benefits for investing in a musical education are worth your while whether you are a young person or an adult, no matter what instrument you are interested in!
