In 1995, Piano Wellness founder Sheila Paige began presenting workshops on the Taubman Approach for Pianists. Over the years, demand for her workshops and private lessons grew. In 2000, Ms. Paige realized her dream of organizing an annual seminar based on a multi-disciplined approach to learning. The Piano Wellness Seminar encompasses the mind, the body and the spirit by combining the Taubman Approach, Alexander Technique, Bodymapping, Developmental Fitness, Meditation, Pilates, and T'ai Chi among other disciplines. Now in eighth year the seminar attracts pianists of all ages and levels, both nationally and internationally.
The website, www.PianoWellnessSeminar.com will provide updates on Sheila Paige's teaching, performing, and lecturing schedule, as well as updates on her faculty's teaching and concerts.
Ms. Paige's lectures from the 2006 Piano Wellness Seminar will be available in September 2006 and there are plans to release new DVDs year round. Other products available are ergonomic pens, t-shirts, and other promotional items.
Ms. Paige and the Piano Wellness Seminar are dedicated to “helping today's pianists create a better legacy for the future.”
