Lessons
for Adults 18+
Piano lessons improve physical coordination. Improve hand-eye coordination since the hands and fingers must work independently. As lessons progress, even the foot becomes involved when the piano pedals are introduced. Playing piano is an activity that will improve coordination.
Reading sheet music requires mental concentration and creativity to translate both notes and musical rhythm. That translation is simultaneously interpreted by playing keys on the piano. Critical thinking skills are constantly being reinforced as the brain quickly interprets and tells the hands and feet how to respond by playing the right notes at the appropriate timing. In other words, reading music and playing it, makes the brain think on its feet, which conditions it to respond the same way in other situations outside of piano lessons and practicing.
Why you should take piano lessons as an adult
Playing music has been shown to trigger biochemical stress reducers and change the speed of brainwaves, so that they appear similar to those of one in a meditative state. Reduced stress levels mean reduced chronic illnesses, especially heart disease, multiple sclerosis, and type II diabetes.
While it may not seem like a workout, any movement–including playing the piano–is key to staying flexible. Hands are trained to stretch in different directions, and the elbows move and stay loose constantly. This may very well fend off arthritis and general joint discomfort.
The brain’s ability to adapt and change as a result of training and experience over the course of a person’s life.
Active engagement with musical sounds not only enhances neuroplasticity, but also creates permanent patterns important to all learning.
Music makes you feel happier, which results in increased blood flow, one small key to fighting and preventing conditions like peripheral artery disease and atherosclerosis.
Music helps you get in better touch with your feelings, leading to a better mood.
Lifelong learning leads to self-fulfillment, something that we all seek at one time or another. Piano lessons are a great way to stay active in and contribute to your community. The decision to take piano lessons could end up being a catapult to a dozen social connections and a dozen opportunities to see yourself succeed. You might think it’s too late to start, or restart, adult beginner piano lessons. But with a flexible teacher and an open-minded attitude, it’s never too late to see your dream come true.
