HOW OLD IS TOO OLD?
Posted on 23 June, 2014 at 10:05 |
"I've always wanted to play the piano, is 60 too old to learn?" I'm 87 years old. I have memory problems, I can't learn to play now, can I?" The answer to the first question is "NO"! You are NEVER too old to learn to play the piano. The answer to the second question is "YES"! Playing the piano is one of the best memory exercises, and you are NEVER too old to learn to play the piano.
Adults take piano lessons for a variety of reasons. Often the person began piano lessons as a child, but did not stay with it. Now that they are older, they realize what they missed. As children, some did not have parents with the financial means to afford piano lessons, but now, the person is better established and still has the desire to play.
Playing piano can be recreational as well as therapeutic for someone with a stressful job, someone suffering with an illness, or one who is a caregiver; or perhaps someone recently divorced or having lost a loved one, or someone dealing with memory problems, arthritis, or other physical or mental limitations. Maybe you are a college student or a musician who needs to improve your skills, or perhaps you simply want to learn to play the piano. There are a multitude of reasons and rationales for learning to play the piano, but the best reason by far is: You want to play the piano!
I enjoy teaching my adult students just as much as I enjoy teaching my kiddos. Adult students are more disciplined, they are ready to learn, and no one is "making" them take piano lessons.
Adult lessons are customized to fit the skill and the focus of the student. We have a lot of fun in our adult piano classes, We laugh a lot, share events and ideas, and often become true friends. Throughout all of this, we are learning to play the piano!
Do not miss another day of acheiving your dream to play the piano. You will play a song the very first lesson. Call us or send a message now to schedule your time and day.
Get those fingers moving! Let's play piano
