So cool to see Paris starting to teach. Keep him in mind for piano and drum lessons!

We are very excited to introduce our newest teacher offering piano and drum lessons - Paris Takarangi. Paris has been playing drums since he was 8 and piano since he was 11. He has a passion for creating music and playing in groups with other musicians. His teaching goal is to help his students enjoy and explore music and bring out their own creativity. Get in touch to book in piano or drum lessons with Paris!
