Shad Ryan Wenzlaff is an arts educator, place maker, and visual artist whose interests lie within the intersection of piano and voice education, creative space making, design, art history, art theory, and wellness.

Shad believes that the piano is a transformative instrument. Students who encounter study of music through piano engage the entire body, mind, and spirit. Shad enjoys improvisation, classical-inspired repertoire, and a culture of piano music that classical training offers to the world.
