KeyNotes Music is a group piano program grounded in research, designed specifically for studios that want to offer creative, child-centred learning in a flexible, scalable way. Unlike traditional linear teaching methods, KeyNotes embraces a cyclical spiral approach that meets students where they are, supports collaboration, and nurtures a broad range of musical skills — including improvisation, composition, movement, storytelling, singing, and listening.

Our program makes it easy for new students to join at any time, helping you maintain engaged, full classes without disruption. KeyNotes is built to grow with your studio and your students, empowering you to deliver inspiring group classes that keep families coming back.

KeyNotes makes group teaching work — with flexible enrolment, a spiral curriculum, and collaborative learning built in.

Continuous Enrollment —   Made Easy

New Students Can Join Anytime — And Fit Right In

No more waitlists or awkward start dates. KeyNotes’ spiral structure means every class is built for mixed-ability learning. Students slot into the flow with ease, and you keep your classes thriving year-round.

✔️ Multi-entry curriculum
✔️ No “catch-up” lessons
✔️ Classes stay full

A Curriculum That Spirals — Not Stalls

Skill-Based, Child-Centred, and Built for Progress

KeyNotes isn’t a linear, lab-style program. It's built around a cyclical learning model that spirals upward—revisiting skills at deeper levels and allowing every child to move forward from where they are.

Students learn through:
Improvisation
Composition
Storytelling
Movement
Singing
Listening

Because deep learning happens when children explore, create, and collaborate.

Group Teaching That Actually Works

Goodbye, One-to-One Repertoire Thinking. Hello, Collaborative Learning.

Traditional piano methods focus on repertoire as proof of progress. That’s fine for solo lessons — but not for groups.

KeyNotes is built differently:
→ Concepts are explored through play, not just performance
→ Collaboration is part of the design
→ Every child contributes, every class builds community

This is real group learning — not 1:1 lessons in disguise.
