About Me

Meet Inna Gendler

At Ms. G Piano Studio, we believe the beauty of music comes to life through exceptional, personalized piano instruction for students of all ages and levels.

For more than 30 years, Ms. Inna has been dedicated to nurturing musical talent and inspiring a lifelong love of piano. She began her formal training at Belarus Music College, graduating in 1993 with a Bachelor's degree in Piano Pedagogy and Performance. Soon after moving to the Bay Area, she continued her professional development under renowned teachers including Mock MacCrey (San Francisco Conservatory), Dr. Alfred Kanwischer (Boston University), and Dr. Marina Green (Moscow State University). Ms. Inna later earned her Master of Piano Performance from San José State University.

As an active member of the Music Teachers' Association of California (MTAC) for over three decades, Ms. Inna has guided countless students to excel in the Certificate of Merit program, international festivals, and prestigious competitions worldwide.

Important Information

Lessons: Weekly private lessons are available in 30, 45, or 60-minute sessions.

Practice Expectations: Students are expected to practice at least five times per week. Progress comes from consistency and mindful practice — not just the amount of time spent. For beginners, 10–15 minutes of focused practice per day can lead to rapid improvement.

Instrument Recommendation: Students should ideally have daily access to a well-maintained acoustic piano, as quality of sound and touch is essential for proper musical development.

Cancellations: Please provide at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations. In cases of emergency, every effort will be made to reschedule the lesson.
