It’s time to bust the myths surrounding playing the piano<\/i><\/p>\n
There are many myths surrounding playing the piano and if one of them is holding you back from taking up the instrument it\u2019s time to put your fear and apprehension to one side and try a lesson for yourself.<\/p>\n
While learning a new skill can be a daunting prospect, learning to play the piano for pleasure can be fulfilling and has some health benefits, such as helping to relieve stress, too. Here we debunk 6 common piano lesson myths.<\/p>\n
Everyone is going to make mistakes when they first start out and even occasionally when they\u2019ve played for years. Any good piano teacher won\u2019t get angry or criticise you for making mistakes, instead they\u2019ll help you overcome obstacles by teaching proper techniques with good structure.<\/p>\n
At the London Piano Institute, you can be assured that we will never get angry at you in your piano lessons. We are here to help you learn in a comfortable and encouraging manner.<\/p>\n
You can be assured of receiving piano instruction from world-class musicians who genuinely care for your piano progress and who always have your best interests at heart!<\/p>\n
We will do our utmost to make your lessons enjoyable!<\/p>\n
The best way to improve at something is to really enjoy what you\u2019re doing. If classical music isn\u2019t your thing you certainly don\u2019t have to study it before moving on to jazz or popular music.<\/p>\n
It is however generally a good idea to lay a strong foundation prior to moving to more advanced material. At the London Piano Institute we teach you the style you want to learn but without compromising on essential foundations of music!<\/p>\n
There are plenty of options for learning to play the piano amid busy schedules and hectic work life. An hour long lesson can fit perfectly into the evening, a lunch break or over the weekend without ruining other plans. The London Piano Institute can even offer Skype lessons<\/a> to suit you.<\/p>\n If an hour a week is too long, you can even attend for 30 minutes at a time.<\/p>\n We also do not push you to practice too much when you have a very busy schedule.<\/p>\n It is, however, important to do some practice if you want to become better at playing the piano.<\/p>\n The truth is you don\u2019t need a piano to start leaning. In fact, it can be an advantage to start before you own your own instrument as this will allow you to try out different options and receive advice from your instructors. Another common myth is that you\u2019ll need to pay a lot to get a good piano but there are many affordable options on the market \u2013 here are our recommendations<\/a>.<\/p>\n Of course, if you can afford a top-notch upright or grand piano, we will be very happy to help you find a model that is suitable\u00a0for you!<\/p>\n It is a fact a better quality instrument makes playing more enjoyable!<\/p>\n Of course, practising daily means you\u2019ll improve quicker but sometimes life does get in the way. Even if you can\u2019t commit to playing every single day you\u2019ll still be able to improve and enjoy playing the piano for pleasure.<\/p>\nI can\u2019t start lessons because I don\u2019t own a piano<\/h3>\n
I need to practice everyday<\/h3>\n
There\u2019s no point in learning when I\u2019m an adult<\/h3>\n
