Julie Swienty, Piano Instructor
Welcome!
Thank you for choosing my website to learn about piano lessons. I am a private piano instructor, teaching students of all ages and levels in a large, comfortable studio in the Lake Meridian area of Kent, Washington.
Learning to play the piano is very rewarding. While it requires work, the piano gives back so much more in terms of enjoyment, achievement, and increased self-esteem. Making your own music is one of the great pleasures of life!

My Students
My studio is filled with a variety of ages and levels of piano students from beginning children and adults through very advanced musicians. Music is an essential part of a child's complete educational experience. Parents know that piano training, in particular, disciplines the child's mind and helps in other academic areas, such as math and science. For adults, piano lessons are an important part of their lifetime learning goals. Both working and retired, my adult students find the piano a welcome change from the stress of daily life. Some took lessons earlier in life and decided to return to music. Others have decided that now is the time to take piano lessons, even though they may have no previous music training. In either case, adult students find piano studies challenging and rewarding. My adult students also find piano playing therapeutic and helpful in maintaining sharp cognitive skills.
