Piano Studio
Creating Exceptional Performers
About
As a child, I sought out music every day, from Mozart to Berlin. I played multiple instruments, participated in orchestra, musical theatre, school band, and choir. This has continued throughout my life. At the Kate Whelan Piano Studio in San Diego, I hope to instill that same love of music in every student. I am passionate about finding creative ways to reach all kinds of learners, regardless of ability.
I provide a unique and personalized method of learning, creating an environment to nurture, educate and encourage students to explore different genres of music and to extend their technical abilities at the piano.
“The important thing is to feel your music, really feel it and believe it.”
