Does any of this describe you?
You want to feel more comfortable when you play, but you're not sure what's holding you back.
You want to move beyond perfectionism and embrace the joy of playing.
You're contemplative by nature and value mind-body awareness in your playing.
Maybe you’ve played for a long time, or are returning after a hiatus.
You’ve had traditional lessons or taught yourself, but something is missing.
You tell yourself you just need to practice more. Work harder. Get better.
But you and I both know that the real discovery is within yourself:
Trusting your own musicianship.
Allowing your technique to relax so you can be more musical.
Giving yourself permission to let go of perfectionism and enjoy playing.

Hi, I’m Laura! I’m a pianist, teacher, and coach.
With over two decades of experience as a piano professor, I’ve combined rigorous training in piano pedagogy with expertise in meditation and wellness coaching.
I love helping students relax their minds and bodies and find (or rediscover!) joy at the piano.

A warm and collaborative atmosphere that centers your musical goals.
Relaxing your technique so you can unlock expressive power.
Becoming aware of mind and body so you can play with freedom and ease.

What Students Are Saying
Before I worked with Laura, I had considered myself someone who played piano, but never thought of myself as a “pianist.” Her focus on healthy playing, performance anxiety, and mental and physical health, in general, has helped me develop my technique, gain confidence, and sustain a career that involves long periods of playing, and still be healthy!
I study piano with Laura via virtual lessons as an intermediate adult piano student. She is an excellent teacher: very flexible and supportive of the repertoire I choose to learn and play; provides detailed instruction; always ensures I understand her feedback – often by playing examples so I can see the exact technique or method; and lastly, she makes a student feel at ease at the keyboard. As an adult learner, I view Laura as both a teacher and a coach helping me on my journey of playing the piano.
I knew that Laura was going to be a great fit from my very first lesson with her. She approaches everything with kindness and compassion and cares about educating the whole person, not just the pianist. I wouldn’t be where I am today without her lessons.
I always walk out of lessons with Laura with a more confident and centered approach to both music and life! I have been able to keep piano in my life as a joyful and creative musical outlet solely because of her patience and musical expertise. I don’t play piano because I need to, I play because it’s fun.
