A rare opportunity to spend one or two days in focused study with Ashley Lane — recognized as Steinway’s Legend and founder of the Adult Piano Education Program.

Improvisation & Arranging
Theory & Analysis
Playing by Ear
Sight Reading
Technique & Artistry
Only two intensives are offered each month.
An Ashley Lane Intensive is not a masterclass.
It is not a workshop.
It is a rare opportunity to spend uninterrupted time at the piano with one of the most respected adult piano educators working today.
For one or two days, the focus is singular. You will leave the experience with a completely level up musical mind.
Your playing.
Your repertoire.
Your musical development.
Ashley listens closely.
She identifies the technical and musical patterns shaping your playing and works with precision to bring clarity where refinement is needed.
Depending on your chosen focus:
Passages are rebuilt.
Tone is refined.
Interpretation deepens.
Sight reading eases.
Playing by ear becomes possible.
Improvisations, arrangements, compositions, or song writing becomes clear.
You hear, see, feel, and understand the music in a way you never have before.
There is no rush.
No audience.
No competing attention.
Only the instrument, the music, and the quiet discipline of serious study.


These intensives are designed for adult pianists who may:
Feel plateaued in their progress
Sense a deficit in their prior education in one of the core skill areas
Have a specific interest of focus

Final Note :
