How long have you been playing piano for? Have you taken formal lessons/classes?

I've been playing for 10 years now ^^
I've taken piano lessons for about 7/10 years :D

i've started playing about 2-3years ago...

i didn't have have the chance to take piano lessons so i learned by ear and by book, i'm still not that good but i can fairly play a few pieces...

i started playing on an entry-level 4-octave keyboard, and it was a very annoying experience cause only a few songs are composed on just 4 octaves, whenever i start learning a piece and finds out that i'm out of key notes, i was forced to improvise a lot, and it kinda hindered my learning experience...

but now i finally got an upright piano^^
yehey...

It's 9 years for me (and as long of music theory), I stopped 6yrs ago but play from time to time anime music ^___^.

It's a bit hard to learn it if you haven't had music theory class, but not impossible.

I recently started (1 month ago) and im learning by myself using some books and youtube videos as a reference. I plan to get a formal teacher but currently college leaves me with no extra time so it will probably take a while :(

I've been playing by ear since the age of two, and I began taking lessons when I was six years old. After about nine years, I quit lessons because I was too preoccupied with school. I still play by ear quite frequently, and I hope to take lessons again soon. I didn't appreciate them or take them seriously enough when I was younger.

That's so cool! I've only started piano last year and it's so hard. When I reach 10 years, I'll be so happy.

Well on and off since I was 7 so about what? 14 years? More off than on tbh but I took lessons for 6 years till I just kinda stopped for many reasons so now I just occasionally play whatever comes up.
Also started playing guitar last year just for fun.
