Welcome

Thank you for choosing my website to learn about piano lessons. I am Lory Peters, a private teacher, teaching piano to students of all ages and levels in a large, comfortable studio in the Scottsdale Airpark.

Learning to play the piano is extremely rewarding. While it requires practice, the piano gives back so much more in terms of enjoyment, achievement, and increased self-esteem. And making your own music is simply one of the great pleasures of life!

On any given day at my studio you'll find a wide variety of children and adults taking piano lessons. For kids, music is an essential part of a complete educational experience. Parents know that piano training, in particular, disciplines the child's mind and helps in other academic areas, such as math and science. For adults, piano lessons are an important part of their lifetime learning goals. Both working and retired, my adult students find the piano a welcome change from the stress of daily life. Some took lessons earlier in life and decided to return to music. Others have decided that now is the time in their adult lives to take up piano studies, even without any previous music training. In either case, adult students find piano studies a challenging and rewarding part of their lives. Many adults even find piano playing therapeutic and helpful in maintaining sharp cognitive skills.

Whatever your situation, if you have always wanted to learn to play the piano, and if you have the desire to learn, there is no better time to start your piano journey than right now.

My website will give you information you need to help you decide if piano lessons are in your future, and if I am the right piano teacher to help you. Be sure to check out the Learning the Piano section, where some of the most common questions about piano lessons are answered.
