The piano is one of the greatest instruments anyone can learn and is the perfect instrument for beginners! We offer weekly private piano lessons to students starting at age 5 and have 30, 45, and 60-minute lessons available. We teach a variety of different styles such as classical or more contemporary pop, jazz, or worship music, and we introduce traditional notation as well as chord charts and lead sheets.
We welcome brand-new beginners as well as more experienced and self-taught students. We love to work with both casual and serious learners alike and are happy to accommodate any unique goal you may bring to us.
Piano lessons are conveniently available near you in one of our 12 locations in Annandale, Ashburn, Burke, Herndon, Vienna, Novi, West Bloomfield, Plymouth-Canton, Rochester Hills and Troy.
piano for beginners
All of our piano instructors love working with beginners and have experience creating a structured program to help students master all the foundational aspects of not only piano technique, but also rhythm, theory, and reading music. Beginning students at Expressions have a blast playing amazing songs from day one while learning these critical foundations.
piano for experienced students
Whether students come to us with prior experience from another school or teacher, or whether they started with us as beginners and continued to advance, we know how to help them reach their next goal. Intermediate or advanced students learn how to play more challenging music and fine-tune and polish their playing by mastering more advanced techniques and theoretical applications. Whether students want to learn a new style, prepare for a competition or college audition, or just keep playing for fun, we have the skills and experience to get them there.

FREE OPTIONAL RECITALS TWO TIMES PER YEAR
Students want to feel motivated to practice and parents want to see progress, and our optional recitals accomplish both these objectives. We offer a variety of recital options and themes in our very own concert hall twice each year. We pride ourselves on our well-organized, warm, supportive performance events which never last longer than an hour... and they’re entirely free for all involved!
LEVEL UP MUSIC ACHIEVEMENT PROGRAM
Our students have been enthusiastically climbing from levels 1 through 10, earning certificates, wristbands, stickers, and trophies since we launched this signature program in 2012. Think about the martial arts Black Belt program… but for music lessons! This structured, nationally recognized, and motivating program is completely free (and optional) for Expressions students of all ages, and our students have never been more motivated to master their instrument!
MONTH TO MONTH LESSON STRUCTURE
No long term quarterly or annual commitments. Students are only committed to a month at time.
