Pneuma Philosophy

The power to create, at your fingertips.

Music philosophy

Musical freedom

Don't just learn a song or two: learn the tools that unlock creative and collaborative freedom. Plus, those songs will be much easier to learn.

Past, present, future

Formed by the traditions, forged in the present: experience the benefits of classical training, no matter what level.

Learn like a language

Music is a language: it should be taught like one. Ear training and conceptual involvement enable reading and collaboration.

Not just piano: lessons for life.

Passion over fear

Fear is a strong motivator. Passion is a better one. Join a studio that gets results with none of the damage but all of the joy.

Intrinsic value

Rediscover what it means to succeed, and press into what it means to be human. At Pneuma, your value is not conditional: it's assumed.

Immediate involvement

Lectures are fine, but not here. Enjoy the active engagement of private lessons that are built on phrases like "try this" and "show me." It's time to jump in.

Hard work is fun

Work hard, make something beautiful, and have fun while you do. The days of drudgery while you practice are over.

The fullness of human expression and emotion, always.

At Pneuma, you're safe and free to come as you are. Enjoy an environment founded on trust.
