About Us

Eric's Piano School - Eric Rinehart

EPS Fundamental Goals:

Make the Lesson Experience Fun
Teach Student's to Play Musically
Have Kids Fall in Love With Music
Eric's Piano School Teaching Philosophy:
Eric's Piano School provides a roadmap for student's to take responsibility for their own learning so that they can learn fast and play like an artist.
​

Our students get all the tools to learn and rehearse their music during their piano lesson. They leave lessons feeling inspired and confident to play at home. That means no more frustrations and arguments about practice at home! Students in my program progress through their method books 25-50% faster then traditional approaches and the kids love to feel like they are progressing fast.
Our Students:
  • Learn to play 35-50 songs in their first year.
  • Compose and improvise their own music (even my beginners!)
  • Love coming to lessons.
  • Leverages technology to reengage a student and become an independent learner.

About Eric's Piano School

I started Eric's Piano School in August 2017 based in Costa Mesa, CA. I  proudly share my passion for piano with 40+ students. My mission is to make learning the piano a fun and rewarding experience - there has been nothing more meaningful in my life then pursuing mastery of the piano and myself!

Our teachers can adapt their teaching styles to any child's personality. Most students have the ability to learn 35-50 songs in their first year! We teach a variety of styles including classical, jazz, blues, pop, rock, Disney - if it's got a melody we can try and make an arrangement for the piano!

We prioritize making lessons convenient for the parents, filled with laughter for the kids, and use modern technology to offer a piano lesson experience that gets kids engaged with music and playing the piano.

Music has always been interwoven into my life. I was born and raised in the Napa Valley to a 5th generation piano family. 10 minute piano sessions would be sprinkled in between my races on Mario-Kart. ​​Throughout middle school and high school, I continued to be involved with music of all varieties; trumpet in bands, saxophone in the jazz ensemble, and euphonium with the World Champion Concord Blue Devils. ​ In college I pursued a Biochemistry degree, and loved expanding my scientific mind, but finally discovered my true passion in piano. It BECAME my thing which is when I decided I would devote my life to music and education.

​​With roundabout fashion, I returned to the Napa Valley after college graduation in June 2015 to get serious about my piano career practicing 4-5 hours every day, studying with some of the greatest pianists and music educators including Josh Wright DMA, Sam Grodin DMA, Jonny May, Kyle Landry.  ​​
​
At present, I am happily teaching piano and serving the Orange County community with a fantastic community of fellow teachers and my piano families to share the excitement of personal growth through musical mastery.
