Do I need to own a piano or electronic keyboard?
Yes, we strongly encourage all students to purchase their own instruments for home practice. However as we all know, the price of an acoustic piano may be prohibitive to most aspiring beginners. Hence, we recommend students to either get an electric piano or a portable keyboard as a start. As you improve over time, you may consider upgrading your instruments. Most students we know are happy with a portable keyboard.
