Last Frontier Piano Studio FAQs
Our studio is located at 220 E Redoubt Ave, Soldotna, AK 99669.
We teach students ages 6 through adult, with most of our studio focused on kids’ music lessons for pre-college students ages 6–18.
We welcome students of all levels, from beginners to advanced. Our approach is classical and conservatory-style, while still incorporating each student’s interests. We are one of the few studios in the area to offer classical piano lessons for all levels.
Please inquire for current pricing. We are a high-quality program led by the only Nationally Certified Teacher of Music (NCTM) in the area, a credential awarded by MTNA. Our rates may be higher than other studios in the community because of our specialized approach, comprehensive curriculum, and commitment to exceptional standards.
Yes! While most of our students are children or teens, we also offer piano lessons for adults of all levels. Whether you’re brand new or returning after years away, we’ll create a lesson plan tailored to your schedule, interests, and goals. Adults may choose from flexible lesson packages, or weekly lessons at a flat tuition rate.
Yes! I offer several flexible formats to fit real family life, including:
Shorter lessons twice a week – great for younger beginners who benefit from more frequent check-ins.
Online piano lessons – available for both kids and adults.
Self-scheduled lesson packages – purchase a set of 4 lessons through my Fons calendar and book them at times that work for you (25% higher rate for the added flexibility).
These options are especially helpful for busy families and those living outside the Soldotna area.
