The perfect place to begin your musical journey

Children develop concentration, discipline, coordination, patience and self-confidence through music. Adults rediscover a skill they always wished they'd kept up. Lessons run in half-hour or hour blocks, tailored to each student.

What our students say

I began learning the piano with Dean and have never looked back. Six months later I was playing a beautiful Bach minuet that I would have never dreamed I’d be able to play. The feeling I get from playing a beautiful piece of music is unexplainable — pure joy! Thanks Dean, for believing I could do it, before I believed I could.

“Dean's ability to instill the necessary skills in his pupils in a fun, individually tailored way helped both our sons enjoy many years of happy music making. Dean's warm, caring nature makes him a great role model for his students.”

David and Robyn Hicks

“Dean is extremely flexible in his ability to mould his teaching style to facilitate my interest in jazz and blues piano, whilst his enthusiasm motivates me to practice, understand and progress through my passion. Highly recommended.”
