🎹 Adult group students are the best-kept secret in piano teaching.
Everywhere you go, someone says:
"I’ve always wished I could play the piano."
Adult students are eager, joyful, and incredibly grateful to learn.
🎶 Teaching them in groups is energizing — not exhausting.
🧠 It boosts brain function, reduces stress, and creates connection.
🤝 And for teachers, it’s a breath of fresh air.
At Group Piano LIVE 2025, we’ll show you exactly how to teach, recruit, and build adult piano groups that thrive.

🎶 Experience Whole Body Learning — for every age and every stage.
In this clip, we share why multi-sensory learning isn’t just for kids — it’s for teens, adults, and teachers too.
When you engage the whole body, you help the brain store and retrieve musical memory more effectively — and that’s a game changer for how we teach.
🧠 “Using music to teach music” is at the heart of what we do.
Join us at Group Piano LIVE 2025 and experience it for yourself.

📱 Today’s kids are different — and we need to teach differently.
Generation Alpha (those under 15) have grown up with devices in their hands before they could even talk.
🎮 Shorter attention spans
📱 Constant stimulation
🎧 Multisensory input everywhere
No wonder traditional music teaching isn’t cutting it anymore.
At Group Piano LIVE 2025, we’ll explore how technology has shaped students — and more importantly, how you can adapt to reach them with tools that actually work.
📍 Houston, TX | July 18–20

🎹 Pop music made me a better classical pianist…
We talk a lot about technique, but chords and creativity? They’re the bridge between classical and contemporary—and they spark joy for today’s students.
Learning to play from lead sheets and chord charts doesn’t just support pop playing. It builds better musicianship, period.
🎶 It opens the door to improvising, composing, and playing what they love.
We’ll explore exactly how to use chords, lead sheets, and creative approaches at Group Piano LIVE 2025.
