Skills for Success
What Your Child Will Learn in Piano Lessons
Every piano key your child presses builds skills that extend far beyond music.
At San Ramon Academy of Music, our 1-on-1 lessons teach your child how to read music, improve hand coordination, and develop rhythm, all while helping them express themselves through the melodies they create.
As they practice and tackle new challenges, your child strengthens focus, problem-solving skills, and memory retention. Through creative expression and performance opportunities, they also build confidence, resilience, and a sense of achievement.
And science backs what parents already see. A study published in Frontiers in Human Neuroscience found that consistent music practice improves working memory, reasoning skills, and processing speed, which are essential for success in school and life.
The benefits don’t stop there as regular practice is also linked to increased gray matter volume in the brain, particularly in areas associated with auditory processing and visual-spatial skills.

Fun Fact
A Journey Through Piano History
Did you know that the piano your child learns to play today has a story as inspiring as the music it creates?
In the early 1700s, in a workshop in Padua, Italy, Bartolomeo Cristofori was busy tinkering with a harpsichord, dreaming of an instrument that could express emotion more deeply – from soft whispers to powerful crescendos. His invention, called the gravicembalo col piano e forte (which translates to “harpsichord with soft and loud”), became what we know today as the piano.
Over the centuries, the piano evolved into the grand and upright versions we see today, loved by musicians for their versatility and ability to make complex, heartfelt music.
Grand pianos, often used for concerts, offer unparalleled richness of sound, while upright pianos bring music to the heart of homes. And in our modern era, digital pianos bring innovation and accessibility by blending tradition with technology.
At San Ramon Academy of Music, we celebrate this legacy with every lesson. Your child will not only learn to play the piano but also become part of a tradition that has inspired composers and musicians for over 300 years. It’s not just about the notes – it’s about carrying forward a piece of musical history, one beautiful melody at a time.
