Salustri Piano Studio, LLC. Salustri Piano Studio, LLC. provides private piano instruction for ages 5 through adult. Over 20 years of experience, and a fun approach to learning.

Thank you for your interest in Salustri Piano Studio, LLC! I have been performing and teaching piano to children and adults for over 20 years. I have both Bachelor's and Master's degrees in piano performance. I teach students at all levels and abilities, including children with special needs. Here are some information regarding my approach with various age levels:

Young Children: I include a lot of "off the bench" activities with my students; especially children ages 5-9. In order to keep young children interested, it must be fun! This may include games, singing, movement, apps, computer games, etc. I teach all students to read music. My ultimate goal is for students to reach the point where they will no longer need a teacher. Granted this takes years, but it means that I've done my job. My goal is to create musicians that love what they do….as much as I do! Tweens and teens: This particular age group requires a different approach. At this age, they are often very busy. Piano should be something they look forward to learning, not something they dread. I'm proud to say I have great success with this age group! The most important element in keeping student's interest is the music they play. I teach a wide variety of music from classical, jazz, pop, holiday music (we celebrate EVERY holiday around here!) religious music, etc. It's important to keep tweens and teens excited and always wanting to learn more! Adults: Adults are wonderful students! The best part of private lessons is that the material is catered to the individual. This goes for all ages. We move through material and concepts at the pace of each individual. There are various learning styles, so I cater lessons to the individual. Call to arrange a time to come by the studio, meet me, and let's see if I would be a good fit for you, or your children!

Did you know that a 3-year old (top left image) and a 6-year old (top right image) have significantly different skeletal structure in their hands?! Notice the bones in the wrist of the 3-year old -- many of them are still mostly cartilage! Look at all the spaces in between the bones where muscles and tendons will change through the years. Even the difference between a 6-year old and a 14-year old (lower right) is huge!

Preschoolers have SO much development to do before they can write the way school-aged children or adults can!

Please do NOT stress if your preschooler does not want to write or draw. Some love it and some don't.

While they are growing, strengthen those little bones and muscles! Here are some great pre-writing, muscle-strengthening activities:

* painting, drawing, coloring
* playdough
* tearing and cutting
* gluing
* poking holes in things (try toothpicks and paper!)
* digging in dirt
* building with LEGOS, marble runs, or other blocks
* beading (try beads, cut straws, or even bobbins!)
* puzzles
* squeezing (try stress balls, squeezing water in a sponge, or using a pipette)
* picking up and throwing balls (use different sizes!)
* playing with toys (watch what their little fingers do when they pick up and move little cars, marbles, action figures, etc!)
These all strengthen and help develop little hands, muscles, and bones. When they are physically ready to write, it will be so much easier than if they were pushed when they didn't want to and weren't ready!

How often do I tell my students that music is something they will still be able to do when they’re 97?!
