Why Yamaha school matters?

Yamaha Philosophy

The Yamaha philosophy of music education is based on the belief that all people have the potential to develop musical ability. Yamaha believes that everyone has the capacity to create, perform and enjoy one’s own music, and that through this joy of music one can enjoy a richer life. We hope to influence the greatest number of people to enjoy music.

In the early 1950’s, a research team of excellent teachers, physicians, psychologists and musicians were brought together to develop a new and effective way of teaching music.

Through much discussion, research and experimentation, a unique and remarkable educational system evolved which is now being praised around the world.

"Miss Melanie is an amazing piano teacher for my 5 and 7 year old. She always engages her students and makes learning fun. It is also refreshing to see well structured disciplined teaching. Would highly recommend Miss Melanie and Ya Music!"

- David Roque

"YaMusic has been a great experience for us as parents and our kids. Melanie (our instructor) is fun patient, talented and most importantly a great teacher. We have 2 girls enrolled and within the first year of class learned to play, read basic music and identify notes by ear. At the end of each class both girls give Melanie a big hug before we leave. I cannot recommend them enough!"

- Mathew Skinner

"My two kids have been with Yamusic Miss Melanie for more than 2 years. I am very grateful to choose Yamusic. Miss Melanie has been very helpful. Whenever we have questions she is always willing to help and give suggestions. My two kids love Miss Melanie, they are practicing piano every day and get a lot of progress. We can’t wait to explore more with Miss Melanie!"

"My boys have been taking the group music classes and I've enjoyed seeing them grow with music/piano, their ability developed from the classes impresses me with how much they've learned these past 1.5yrs."

- Joanna F

"We were with Ms Melanie for 4 years. She is an amazing and very talented teacher. Always able to create a connection with the class. The school follows Yamaha system, which is focused on developing musicality rather than teaching only to play an instrument. Our daughter was very happy to attend the classes."

- Mariya Rodriguez-Paryak

"YaMusic is an outstanding music school. The piano teachers (and owners) are very professional and super engaging with the kids, to make music fun! Their ukulele and guitar teachers are also excellent. I would recommend this music school to anyone - and any age - looking to have fun while learning music."

- Scott Jackson

"Our 7 year old has had a great introduction to piano through the group lessons at YaMusic. They go at a good pace and provide a great introduction to many music fundamentals. Lessons are dynamic and he's had lots of fun and enjoyed the variety of pieces that he's worked on. We've been impressed by how much he's learned in just one year. Looking forward to another year of lessons coming-up!"

- Naomi Begoray

"Excellent music school! Jillian and Mel are a pleasure to work with and they know their stuff! Very attentive and patient with children and adult learners alike. The location itself is new and looks great, well maintained. Would recommend this school to anyone looking to learn a new instrument or brush up on an old hobby."

- David Preshing

"Highly recommend this music school and I cannot think of a better instructor than Jillian. She herself is an extremely talented musician and a dedicated teacher. She is patient and invested in her students success and growth. My son had a great experience and we are thrilled with all he learned!"

- Amanda Moland

"I have known Melanie and Jillian as Yamaha Instructors for more than a decade. Those two women are a force for good in the city of Edmonton and beyond. They have high expectations of each other and of their students. They are well-prepared and well-qualified. They are dedicated, very talented teachers and they understand how to bring out the best in children. I would not hesitate to enrol my daughter in their group or private lessons."
