At Lawrence Piano Studio, both our private instructors and our group lesson assistants are university-trained musicians. Our teachers' strong credentials mean we can offer knowledgable instruction to students at all levels, from beginners to advanced pianists.

I believe that the group setting develops social engagement in a student's learning experience and confidence during individual performances.

This place is absolutely amazing! My children thoroughly enjoy attending their lessons, thanks to the incredibly positive and encouraging teachers. Eric Sakumura, in particular, creates an exceptional learning environment. His remarkable talents as both a musician and a teacher make for a truly rare and extraordinary combination!
