We are different from other music studios! Our founder, Rick Cinquemani, has based our philosophy on how his mentors helped him overcome himself. At Five Hands Studio, we assume that most children will find the prospect of taking music lessons to be a fun idea. But we also realize that, after the initial excitement, they soon discover that music lessons are just like homework! What is unique about our studio is that we expect this to happen as part of a natural process. After all, any child knows that it's much easier to get entertained by turning on the TV than it is to work on something. We use music lessons to illustrate the value and joy of working toward a goal. As parents, we realize that the happiest people are those who really enjoy their work - people who have managed to successfully combine their life's work with doing something that they love to do. We also know that, on the road to getting what we want, we must be willing to do things that we don't feel like doing. At our studio, students learn that work can be a fun game. We use music lessons to teach children that they can get what they really want with a joyful approach. The trick is to learn how to follow what they know is best for themselves. ( After all, discipline is derived from the word disciple - which means follower. )
