Our Values

Self-Expression

At Borderland Music Studio, it’s so important to us to nurture a space where piano students can feel safe and welcome to explore their unique musical voice. Because every student’s artistic journey is beautifully one-of-a-kind, we take special care to meet students where they’re at and guide them to where they want to be.

Health

Physical and mental well-being is at the heart of what we do at Borderland Music Studio. We believe creating space to slow down and be mindful is part of the process of growing into empowered, confident musicians.

More Than Just Piano Classes

Private, one-on-one piano lessons allow students to experiment with their musical self-expression at their own pace. Once-monthly group piano classes open up a whole new avenue for students to practise building accountability and create community together.

Through yoga, students are given the tools to become aware of how their bodies approach the piano. This helps them to become more engaged in their musicianship, and better able to tackle any challenges that might pop up along the way.

What Clients are Saying *

"Borderland Music Studio is a genuine music journey…this course has brought me to a new level of appreciation that only very few can experience. The instructor is available and present in your experience and practices, and is motivational as well, and speaks from a treasure trove of experience. Virtual lessons means you are able to attend class from your own home, which was great for my busy work schedules…this is a course I will be returning to, week after week!"
