Thank you for your interest in piano lessons at Christian Music Academy.

Comprehensive Piano Curriculum
Our piano lessons are designed to train our students in every aspect of the instrument and develop a solid musical foundation. All of our piano instructors follow a standardized curriculum that covers all aspects of piano technique, basic music theory, and musical interpretation. Each lesson will be customized based on the student’s strengths and weaknesses as well as their interests.
Performance Opportunities
We know from experience that performing is a key part of fully learning an instrument. That’s why we offer ample opportunities for our students to perform a variety of styles and in a variety of settings. We hope you’ll join us for one of our upcoming recitals. Additionally, students systematically progress through 24 levels of curriculum ranging from beginner through advanced, and must pass an exam at each level. These exams will ensure that they are confident and prepared going into each performance.
Exceptional Facilities
At Kansas City School of Music, we have two locations for your convenience: our Lenexa campus and our Overland Park campus. Each facility has soundproof walls, temperature control, and professional quality instruments, including both digital and acoustic pianos. Our state-of-the-art facilities are a small but important part of our standards of excellence.
Keyboard Ensembles
Our keyboard ensembles offer a great way for students to learn in a group setting and work collaboratively with other musicians. We create ensembles based on the students’ age and ability level so that everyone has the opportunity to learn and grow as a musician. These groups offer an enriched musical experience that enhances their experience in private lessons.
Parental Involvement
Parental involvement is crucial to a young student’s success. Our piano instructors here at Christian Music Academy are happy to offer you advice and guidance for getting involved with your child’s music education. We require parents to sit in on lessons if their student is in preschool or elementary school. Visit our parental involvement page to learn more about this.
