Meet Heather Mariano, one of our new piano teachers at Imagine 🎹

Heather is pursuing her Master of Music Education in Piano Pedagogy at the University of Oklahoma, and holds a Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance from Southern Adventist University.

Before grad school, she spent four years teaching piano and violin in Thailand β€” even serving as Academic Principal at Peace Music Academy in Khon Kaen. She's also taught and performed across the Philippines, Indonesia, and the U.S.

That international experience shaped how she teaches now: with creativity, encouragement, and a genuine belief that music should be accessible to every student, no matter where they're starting from.

At OU, Heather also works as a Graduate Assistant for Outreach in the Weitzenhoffer Family College of Fine Arts β€” and still finds time to teach a private studio right here in Norman.

We know music lessons aren't the cheapest line item in the budget. Here's why we're not sorry about that.

Every teacher at Imagine is degreed and trained β€” this isn't a side gig for someone between jobs. You're paying for education, not just an hour of company.

And if the stretch feels real, ask us about scholarship opportunities. We'd rather find a way to say yes than watch a kid miss out.

The best way to know if it's worth it? See it for yourself, on us. And don't worry, we have your back πŸ’™

Did you know September is National Piano Month? 🎢

88 keys. Hundreds of years of music written just for them. And somewhere in your house, a kid who could be the next one to sit down and make something beautiful out of it.

Watch this clip from our Piano Camp recital this summer, real kids, real first songs, real proud faces. 🎹

You don't need a grand piano or a music degree to start. You just need someone to show your child that music was always meant for them.

Tell us in the comments: what song would you want your kid to learn first? πŸ‘‡

There's something special about celebrating together at Imagine Music and Arts! πŸŽ‚ Every birthday is a reminder of the joyful little musicians (and their grown-ups!) who make this place feel like home.

To all our September birthday stars: we hope your day is filled with laughter, love, and a song or two. Happy birthday, friends! 🎈🎢

Drop a πŸŽ‰ in the comments if you've got a September birthday, or tag a friend who needs their song sung today!

Your kid's backpack isn't the only thing that needs restocking this fall. Their practice bag does too. πŸŽ’πŸŽΆ

Swipe through for the 7 things we actually want in every practice bag this year β€” a couple of them might surprise you (looking at you, timer ⏱️).

Because good practice isn't about grinding until it's right. It's got a start, an end, and real breaks in between β€” musicians need recovery just like athletes do.

πŸ’› Screenshot this and tape it to the practice space. Future you will thank you.

Is your band kid stressing over their OSCDA audition music? 😰

You know the drill: the notes are memorized, but nerves (or a plateau) are creeping in. Sometimes all it takes to break through is a fresh set of ears.

We're offering a free trial lesson to any student prepping for honor band auditions, no strings attached, just solid feedback when it counts most.

Toddler parents, this one's for you. 🎢

Our early music classes are back β€” and better than ever.

If you've got a toddler who dances every time the fridge makes a noise, sings the same three words on repeat, or can't sit still through a single meal... good news. That energy isn't something to manage. It's exactly what this class is built for.

We've spent this break making the class even more of what your toddler actually needs (and what you actually need too β€” a room full of other parents who get it).

Hi, if we haven't met yet β€” we're Imagine Music and Arts. 🎢

We started because Jennifer Walschap believed music lessons shouldn't feel like something you survive until recital season. They should feel like the best part of a kid's week.

So that's what she built.

A place where the teachers are degreed and genuinely love what they do (you can always tell). Where a lesson is passionate, purposeful, and patient β€” the Imagine Way, in everything we do. Where "I don't get it" is never the student's fault β€” it just means we haven't found the right way to say it yet.

5+ years later, we've had the honor of teaching 350+ students across the Norman area, and we've watched shy kids become performers, restless kids become focused ones, and "I can't" become "watch this."

We open the doors for students. What happens after that? That part's always up to them.

πŸ’› New here or been with us for years β€” we're glad you're part of this.

Plot twist: we're not just the piano people. 🎢

Did you know that we teach more than piano? Guitar, voice, violin, drums β€” if your kid has an instrument they're curious about, there's a good chance we teach it (and if we don't yet, we probably know someone who does).

Here's the thing about "more than piano": it means your kid gets to find their instrument, not just the one that happens to be in the room. The kid who lights up at drums isn't going to have that same spark forcing through scales on a keyboard β€” and we'd rather find the fit than force the fit.

Passionate, purposeful, patient β€” that's the Imagine Way, no matter which instrument your child picks up.

🎡 Curious what we offer? Comment "instruments" and we'll send you the full list!
