Buzz Buddies

Yes! We offer a free lesson so you and your little one can experience the magic of Buzz 'A' Beat firsthand. Come explore our beautiful studio, meet our instructors, and see if it's the right fit for your family.

Our studio is located at 3285 Yonge St, just steps away from Lawrence Station. We're conveniently accessible by transit and offer free parking behind the studio for families driving in.

For children ages 4-6, parent attendance is completely optional. At this stage, kids are typically confident enough to learn on their own. Parents are welcome to attend if they'd like, but most children in this age group participate independently.

Ages 4-6 are the perfect time to begin true piano education! At this stage, children have the attention span, coordination, and curiosity to learn real technique while keeping lessons joyful and engaging. Our approach balances focused skill-building with creative play, so every child develops solid foundations without pressure.

We keep our groups small, just 6 children per group. This ensures every child receives individual attention at the piano from multiple instructors while still benefiting from the energy and inspiration of learning alongside friends. It's the perfect balance of private instruction and social, joyful group learning.

Each 1-hour lesson is thoughtfully designed to build real piano skills while keeping children engaged and inspired. Lessons include individual piano time with instructor guidance, step-by-step technique practice using specialized books, group rhythm and listening activities, composer stories and musical discovery, creative play with musical buddy characters, and progress celebrations with stickers and rewards. We rotate between focused learning and playful activities to match children's energy and attention spans.

Yes! Daily practice is an important part of building piano skills, but we make it fun and achievable. Children receive practice kits with games and activities that make home practice feel like play. We recommend 10-15 minutes per day, short, focused sessions that build confidence and create a healthy musical routine. As children progress, they'll begin playing more independently and will love showing you what they've learned.

Just bring your child! We provide the pianos and everything else needed for a wonderful musical experience. Most lesson materials stay at the studio, including studio-only shoes, workbooks, and practice resources. Occasionally, progress notes and one lesson book may be sent home for practice, but otherwise everything remains in our space, ready for their next session.

We offer flexible lesson times throughout the week, including after-school and weekend options to fit your family's routine. Lessons are once per week for 1 hour. Visit our scheduling page or contact us to find the perfect time slot for your little pianist.

We understand life happens! Please contact us as soon as possible if your child needs to miss a lesson. We'll work with you to discuss makeup options and ensure your little one stays connected to their musical journey.

We provide verbal and written updates throughout the program and invite you to observe lessons so you can see your child's growth and joy firsthand. As your child progresses, they'll earn Buzz Bucks through our rewards program, which they can use towards fun rewards, celebrating their achievements and keeping motivation high!

Learning piano is a beautiful, ongoing journey that unfolds over years, not weeks. Your child attends weekly lessons, progressing at their own pace through our 4-level curriculum and beyond. Proficiency comes with consistent practice and time, but here's what we love: children who experience the joy of early success naturally want to keep going! Most of our students stay with us year after year, growing from tiny explorers into skilled young musicians.

Yes, to make meaningful progress at this level, students need access to a piano or quality digital keyboard at home for daily practice. We're happy to provide recommendations for instruments if you're considering purchasing one.

Children are beautifully prepared to continue their musical adventure in our Buzz Maestros program (ages 6-8), where they'll play full pieces, explore dynamic expressions, and dive deeper into music theory. By this stage, students have solid technique, deep listening skills, and the confidence to continue growing as independent young pianists.
