Alek Wasserman,
Founder & Lead Piano Instructor
"For me, teaching the piano is teaching how to get through life itself. You can achieve the highest of highs and the lowest of lows with this instrument, but you have to keep going no matter what. Playing the piano is not about having talent; it's about committing one's self to daily habits and exploring the deepest artistic and intellectual ideas."
