How do Mason Music piano lessons work?
To get started, you can click here to receive your free trial lesson and our informational guide via email. If you’re ready to rock without a trial, you can self-book for lessons.
After that, you will meet with your piano teacher once a week each week for 30, 45, or 60 minutes, depending on which lesson length you select. The goal for each lesson is to provide time for building a relationship, warming up, reviewing what was learned in the previous lesson and providing new instruction.

What is the best age to start piano lessons?
Most children are ready for instrument-specific lessons by the age of 7, but every child is different. Our recommendation on whether a child is ready depends on their maturity level and ability to focus and practice rather than on their age.
If you have a mini musician ages 3-6, we recommend starting with Animal Adventures in Music, our early childhood music curriculum taught in weekly private lessons.

What gear do I need to start piano lessons?
We have done a lot of research on the best instruments for students to learn on so we stock the Casio Privia PX-S1000 and Casiotone CT-S1. We’ve also created videos showcasing some of the important features of these keyboards, especially for beginners. We stock a variety of beginner and advanced instruments and all necessary accessories in our store, in studio and online, so be sure to check with your studio team and teacher to see what they recommend when you start your lessons!
