Little Pianist First Steps is based on the tradition of Russian Piano School. The main principle is freedom and flexibility in all elements of piano technique. In our method, we avoid at the beginner stage any kind of fixed, five-finger-positional playing, which can cause tension, stiffness of hands and unclear articulation.

One of the primary goals of the method is establishing naturally free hand position; correct playing habits, wrist flexibility and freedom of all playing movements – the foundation of piano technique.

We teach music rhythm and notation in a very attractive and easy to understand way. Fairytale situations, funny characters and great illustrations make it fun for small children.
