Louis Yungling
Piano Teacher Valencia, Spain
Whether professional or amateur, sometimes our practice regimens and habits can leave us a bit dull feeling, not as vibrant and enthusiastic as we first felt when we fell in love with the piece(s) we’re working on. This is normal. Sometimes, however, we can even experience tension and pain during practice and performance. This is common though it is often tolerated and overlooked by so many pianists because of deadlines and busy schedules, or because no one ever showed them how to use their body efficiently. My name is Louis and I absolutely love helping pianists get to the heart of matters like these. I used to suffer from intense right shoulder pain when I played. It hurt so bad that I was spending less and less time at the piano and I was getting depressed because I couldn’t do the thing I love very much: play piano. In 2012 I discovered the book The Art of Practicing by Madeline Bruser and I noticed she answered many questions I had so I sought her out and studied with her for 4 years. Madeline helped me reconnect to my whole body beginning with how to adjust the bench for my unique body and how to use my fingers all over again! I completely redesigned my technique and I have been pain free ever since. I learned many wonderful mindfulness exercises that gave me freedom from stage fright and restored joy to performing. Finding this freedom made me want to spend the rest of my life helping others find the freedoms they deserve. Working with me we’ll do a lot of work at the piano for sure, and explore how music lives through our whole body. But we’ll give just as much attention to our inner world and engage in mindfulness and awareness practices designed to quiet the mind and allow us to feel more, hear more, and express more….with a lot less effort! If you deal with physical tension or pain during practice, struggle with performance anxiety and wonder how to feel more confident on stage, or aren’t quite sure, but wonder what might be possible for you, then you’re in the right place. If this sounds like what you're looking for, I invite you to a free consultation to see how I might be able to help you. +34 638 102 906

Testimonials

Name:  Michael K.
Title:  Adult Pianist
Testimonial:  Louis is a rare find. He is highly technically proficient in all aspects of music and he is an effective communicator that can translate musical ideas / concepts into practical and actionable steps. Technique, theory, and logical application all rolled into the lessons. I learned a TON from Louis, I have been studying music a long time and his guidance on the piano has vastly increased my knowledge and understanding. Excellent experience.



Name:  Susan R.
Title:  Adult pianist
Testimonial:  I cant remember when I didn\'t have the dream of learning to play the piano. After retiring my dream came true but only after I found the perfect teacher. Louis Yungling is that teacher. I had other teachers in the first few years. None with the kind, caring qualities that excite you about coming to your lesson. There are many who can teach the names of notes, the chords, counting, the keys, etc but Louis teaches you to put those skills into practice. He teaches you to feel music in your body, to be comfortable and be one with the instrument. He helps you build confidence that enables you to enjoy the experience of playing. Louis brought out the musician in me!



Name:  Isabelle H.
Title:  Adult pianist
Testimonial:  I have been taking piano lessons with Louis for over a year, and my piano playing has transformed dramatically. Non only has my technique improved a lot, but my level of comfort in playing in front of people has too. More generally, my self confidence as a pianist has grown a lot stronger. Louis is an amazing teacher. He makes his student feel capable and supported, which, for me, is key to making progress in playing music. I have been playing the piano for over 25 years, and I now enjoy practicing so much that I practice every day, and I look forward to it. I live on the West coast, so our lessons happen online, and it has been working well for me. The only time we had technical issues was due to my router dying. Image and sound quality worked perfectly again after I got a new router. I can see his hands and hear very well when he demonstrates something, and he can clearly hear the quality of my sound when I play. Another great benefit of taking classes online is that I don\'t have to commute anywhere, and I enjoy the time saving! I highly recommend Louis as a teacher for any student of any level.



Name:  Shinichiro I.
Title:  Adult pianist
Testimonial:  I started to take the lesson at Yungling Piano Studio in 2018 after learning on my own for many years. Louis warmly welcomed and helped me very much to create a wonderful and fun journey of the piano & music world. He gives both musical and technical suggestions from many different angles with unique expressions when you need it, but he also helps me grow a lot my potential to listen and play music from the heart. He is very good at helping you to be aware of what you want, where you are now and which way you want to go. It\'s been more than 2 years since I started his lesson and I am still enjoying and learning many things everytime.
