Hi!
First and foremost, I'm sending you wishes for good health and calm days during this challenging time. Personally, spending time at my piano, with my dog at my side, is helping reduce my stress level.
Research shows
that cortisol levels and anxiety decrease after playing piano. Listening to calming music can also be helpful. (Stay tuned for a free calming playlist to help ease your anxiety.)
With more people staying safely tucked inside their homes lately and for an unknown amount of time ahead, I’m taking my piano teaching from my piano studio to your living room, in your home, wherever you live in the world.
If you aren't a pianist, consider sharing this with a piano playing friend. They'll really thank you for it if they can't get to their piano lessons and rely on playing piano for stress reduction.
For a limited time, I’m offering
Piano Ninja Tricks
online. It’s a live, online mentorship and coaching program where we’ll be meeting on video chats for six weekly one-hour sessions. (If you can’t make it live, you’ll be sent the replay of the recorded sessions.)
During this 6-week course that starts the week of March 23, I’ll be your personal Juilliard Mentor, teaching you everything I learned from studying with
the best piano instructors on the planet
and from 50 years of playing piano and performing on stages in France, Spain, Poland, Italy, China and throughout the United States.
In this online mentorship and coaching program, we will meet face to face for 6-weeks online while I’m at the piano coaching you on how to:
- Double your octave speed
- Memorize music with ease
- Learn music from scratch, starting with good habits
- Play trills forever without tiring
- Add color to your sound with the damper pedal
- Start every practice session (It’s not what you think!)
- End every practice session
- Use Cyclical Rhythm to save you time and why
- Efficiently and quickly correct wrong notes
- Determine your best time of day to practice
- Accelerate your learning by putting rhythm first
- Play outside your comfort zone
- Play faster without a metronome
- Choose effective fingering that minimizes movement
- Practice smarter without practicing more
- Make stage nerves your best friend
- Stay relaxed and supple while playing
- Emotionally prepare for a performance
- AND we’ll cover additional topics of your choice by request
You can learn from anywhere in the world, while staying safe in the comfort of your own home, but enrollment is only open until March 17. And, I have a
special bonus gift
for you when you enroll by March 15.
