Introduction
STOP! Play a song in 59 MINUTES… Yes, really! 🎵 New to piano playing? Unlock your potential and accelerate your progress   🎵 Already a master? Focused coaching for students gearing up for music school auditions or piano competitions. Welcome to Ceballos Studio! Hi! I’m Héctor D. Ceballos, and my piano lessons go beyond technique. Together, we’ll explore music in a way that’s deeply personal to you, building a strong foundation so you can play the songs and pieces you love with real feeling. With each lesson, you’ll start feeling more at home at the piano, finding the emotion behind the notes and making the music really speak to you. Your Personalized Piano Journey: Let’s begin with a session on me, where we’ll talk about your goals, musical background, and what inspires you. Together, we’ll map out a journal to guide your growth with self-reflection, exploration, and steady progress. I offer three different lesson plans. Which one feels like the right fit for you? ⚪️ Just for Fun: 
For casual learners who just want to play easy favorites (think Happy Birthday or Silent Night)

 • Super flexible rescheduling via Calendly 🔵 Foundation Builder: For learners ready to build strong skills and theory with steady progress

Focused preparation toward auditions, competitions, or specialized goals 
• Ask for info – special price breaks available 
• Includes a weekly 45-min tag-in session 
• Super flexible rescheduling via Calendly All plans include unlimited access to the Piano Improvisation Learning Lounge (PILL). The PILL is an interactive group space where we actively improvise together. I’ll teach techniques while you follow along as I play, guiding you step by step at your own pace. These sessions are alive with possibilities: improvisation, idea-sharing, and open Q&A, all in a welcoming space. Whether you’re introverted (like me!) and prefer to keep your cam and mic off or enjoy jumping in to chat, you’ll feel right at home. With my bird’s-eye view cam setup, you’ll get a close-up look at every hand movement and detail. Getting Ready for Your First Lesson: • Think of your goals and why you want to venture into or improve in piano. • Two devices: computer or tablet in front, phone to the side for hand movements. • A music notebook ready or print music staff sheets (If you have a tablet and pencil, let me know because I have a personalized Ceballos Studio music notebook that I can share with you to use digitally). • A cup of tea or your favorite drink and a snack to aid with concentration 🫢 I’ll share the screenshots, materials and sheet music with you via Google Drive after the lesson. My Style: I keep our sessions practical yet deeply creative. We’ll use my effective “secret” practice methods to make learning feel natural. My goal is to guide you in discovering the piano on your own terms, finding both technique and emotion in every piece. Questions and ideas are always welcome here—so bring your curiosity, a favorite drink, and maybe a snack; I’m here to make each session both meaningful and enjoyable. ~ Let's write YOUR music journey ~

I am an adult first time piano student. Hector is so clear with his communication, and his knowledge is outstanding. I am not great with technology but Hector helped me get situated for a very informative and helpful online lesson. Hector explained to me his philosophy of hands on training mixed with a study of theory and I am very excited he is my teacher as I begin this new hobby.

Héctor’s instructions were concise and clear and I already feel like I’m learning a lot and at a great price too! I’m excited for the many more lessons to come and I highly recommend Héctor if you are like me and don’t know much of anything about piano/music to start.

I have had several weekly lessons with Héctor so far and am very impressed. Héctor is very encouraging, tailors his lessons to my needs and balances playing the piano with music theory and rhythm development amazingly well. As an adult learner and a complete beginner with no knowledge of music theory or playing an instrument; I can see a marked improvement from lesson to lesson. Pieces I looked at weeks ago, now make perfect sense. I would highly recommend Héctor and look forward to each lesson.
