Mindy Rawlinson Piano School
Giving you skills for a lifetime of enjoyment at the piano
ENROLL NOWDid you know?
OUR group Piano classes Have you making music at the very first class
When pianists come together, joyful collaboration happens at the keys.
We use a multi-level approach called Piano Pyramid®, which allows brand new beginners to play alongside intermediate players.
With Piano Pyramid®, each individual student is able to progress at their own pace, while reaping the multitude of benefits that come from learning to play the piano in a group.
Why Group Piano?
Make Music-Making Relevant – Most of us will not become concert pianists. We WILL participate in orchestras, bands, choirs, or will find joy in hobbyist music making. Group piano mimics these experiences.
Develop Higher Level of Focus – Students work as a team while they learn to focus on their individual part within an ensemble.
3x Your Investment – Students who begin learning piano in a group have 3-4 times the skills of those who have spent the same amount of time in private lessons.

Mindy’s favorite quote is from Alfred Mercier: “What we learn with pleasure, we never forget” and she has seen this play out time and again, student after student. She loves musical collaborations and making music with her students at every class.
Expressing creativity through music is such a satisfying experience and Mindy believes it is one that everyone can experience.

Praise from happy Customers
Ms. Mindy is such a fun and engaging teacher. One thing I particularly love about classes with Ms. Mindy is that she takes the time to give frequent and personalized feedback which is so valuable to progression and improvement.
Wendy White
I was so glad to find Ms. Mindy and love her approach. It’s very self-paced and low pressure. There’s no expectations on practice times or the amount of time it should take a kid to master a song. And you know what? My son learned to read music super quickly and loves to sit down at the piano and play one of his favorites from the songbook or practice a new song a couple times a week. It’s only ever 5-10 minutes, but it’s quality over quantity in our house!
Lindsay Robison
Mindy’s teaching style is perfect for adult learners. She is patient and encouraging. She is always ready to explain music in a variety of ways to match your learning style.
