12 Piano Lessons, Music Teacher, Quad Cities 2010-12-24 14:56:08 Details

 Quad City Piano Lessons, Quad City Piano Teacher.

Piano Lessons for Adults, Youth and Children in the Iowa - Illinois Quad Cities.

Have you always wanted to learn how to play the piano? Then, now is an opportunity to do that! Craig Clough is a Quad City area piano teacher offering piano lessons! You're never to old to learn! This is for beginners as well as advanced students. 

Paying for someone to take piano lessons can also make a really nice, unusual gift if you want to give them something a little different for a change! 

All music styles can be taught, depending on the needs and desires of the student such as: renaissance, baroque, romantic, classical, rock, popular and jazz. Music theory, scales, chording, harmony, ear training, sight-reading skills, improvisation and improving the creativity and quality for those who are currently playing keyboards of any type for churches and, showing you how to sing and play at the same time. Instruction is also available on most band and orchestra instruments and organ for church. I have a harpsichord for those who are interested in playing early music more authentically. 

Lessons are made to be a fun and rewarding experience! Part of how this is accomplished would be to make the student an "instant musician" through the use of improvisation. 

Students are all expected to practice on a daily basis at their own home as the lesson is not considered to be practice. Summer breaks are discouraged because of the subsequent loss then of what the student has learned. 

If unable to attend a lesson, 24 hour advance notice to the instructor is required or there will be no refund for the lesson that was missed. Exceptions would be for illness, family emergencies or hazardous road conditions. Payments for lessons are expected to be made at the beginning of the month for that month's lessons. 

Initial investment for piano student's books is usually around $20.00. And, the type of books used, depends on the individual learning style and ability of the student. 

I also tune and repair pianos as well as help people to find pianos, if you might need assistance in any of those areas. 

If interested, then please give me a call! My phone number is: (309) 786-8617.  I live in Rock Island, IL.

14 Floral Design Class Ikebana Arrangement Elementary Course $210 2011-06-06 04:13:24 Details

This program is offered for those who are interested in learning typical Japanese traditional floral art called Ikebana. If you are interested in Ikebana and want to learn its basic skills, this course is highly recommended. Although the skills of Ikebana arrangement cannot be used for doing floral business in USA, we still find lots of people who have keen interest in learning Ikebana. Our chief instructor has over 30 year experience in teaching Ikebana not only here in USA but also in Japan. This traditional floral art requires very sensitive skill and detailed oriented techniques compared with regular kind of floral arrangement originated in Europe. Take arrangement items for instance, Ikebana uses what is called "Kenzan" (needlepoint holder to hold flowers). This is not disposable item unlike oasis used for European style arrangement. There are uncountable needles inserted on a very heavy metal plate. Flower stems are inserted onto the needles to be firmly held there. Unlike using oasis, it MAY require more subtle skills to use Kenzan. When it comes to vase, Ikebana often uses what is called "Suiban" (flat type container specifically designed for Ikebana arrangement).  Therefore the skills and techniques are somewhat different from regular kind of European floral designs. If you do not have Kenzan and Suiban, you need to buy these items. You can get them for $30 in total at our classroom. You can take lessons per this course on weekdays and also on the weekend as well. If you are too busy to attend daytime classes, you can join the evening class at San Jose classroom. If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area (San Mateo County) or Silicon Valley (Santa Clara County), you can easily commute to and from our classroom (either San Jose or Burlingame class). California Flower Art Academy is authorized by Flower Decorators Association which is one of the best established and most prestigious floral associations in Japan. For further information , feel free to contact info@california-academy.com  We help you make a difference in floral art.

20 Flower Design Class Funeral Floral Decoration Course $268 2010-12-09 01:32:06 Details

If you are planning to open your own floral shop, work as a florist, offer floral designs as an independent  floral decorator, it is so important for you to earn skills of funeral floral decoration. Many people pay special attention to wedding floral arrangement and want to learn it for doing floral business. However quite few people show interest in learning funeral floral decorations seemingly because most of people want to stay away from sad and miserable events like funerals. This is quite understandable. However from a business standpoint, funeral floral designing business is very lucrative and even more profitable than wedding floral decoration business. As far as "Man (human beeing) is mortal", we cannot avoid funeral ceremony no matter whether we like or not. If you take a look at the price of funeral floral decorations, it is so important. Especially considering the cost of materials such as flowers and some other related items, funeral floral designs are so important ranging from $130 to $270. In other words, if you master funeral floral decorations and successfully penetrate the market,  you can enjoy pretty profitable business. Besides being profitable, funeral floral decorating business is stable regardless of economic situation. Further in the case of wedding floral decorations, customers often make price negotiation which is very tough for floral shop owners (or floral decorators). In case of funeral floral decorations, there is no time available for customers to negotiate prices. Therefore as a seller (or service provider) of funeral floral decoration, it is must be much easier than wedding flower business. Plus payment from a life insurance company MAY provide financial help to your customers in the case of funeral flowers.  To attend this special course, it costs only $268 which includes not only tuition but also flower and some other materials. This small amount of investment can be easily and quickly paid off once you succeed in funeral flower business. If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area (San Mateo County etc) or Silicon Valley (San Jose in Santa Clara County), you can easily, you can easily commute to and from our school. You can take lessons at our San Jose classroom or Burlingame extension class.
