Not sure if this is for you?
Here’s what you might be wondering:
What happens after I fill out the form?
I’ll personally reach out to schedule your free lesson and ask a few questions to learn more about your goals.
Is this really for beginners or people with past pain/trauma?
Yes. Many of my students come in with difficult past experiences — we take things slowly, gently, and without pressure.
What if I’m nervous or haven’t played in years?
That’s totally normal. This space is built for people just like you.
Why this works:
Play without pain or discomfort
Even if you’ve struggled with arthritis, tension, or past injuries — lessons are tailored to your body.
Learn without pressure
We go at your pace. There’s no judgment, no rigid expectations.
Enjoy music again
Play songs you love in a way that feels empowering and sustainable.

Some piano teachers are very rigid with what they teach...
That's not the case here!
I work around your preferences so that learning piano is a joy, not a chore.
That said, many of my students enjoy playing:
Jazz
Classical
Harmony & Improvising
Classical traditions like Bach & Rachmaninoff.
The direction we take is entirely up to you...

My method of teaching Piano is unique thanks to the Taubman Approach.
With this method, I help you become more aware of your movements so playing piano becomes more natural for your body.
That way, you learn faster and can start playing more complex musical pieces more quickly and easily than in traditional methods!
-
I offer a few different packages based on your needs.
When you fill out the form above, we'll have a quick chat and I'll recommend the program that's best for you.

I teach both in the Chicago area and online via Zoom.
It’s never too late to start learning piano, even if you’ve had bad experiences in the past or have mobility issues that’ve stopped you from playing. Book a lesson with Piano without Pain and see how my method makes all the difference.
