Jazz Courses

Are you making this Jazz Piano Mistake?

When I started learning jazz piano, I tried to do it all on my own...

I wasted months of valuable time searching the internet...

Picked up a few good tips here and there, but overall - it didn't get me anywhere.

I still lacked confidence, and my playing sounded BLAND...

Despite having all the passion in the world - I had nothing to show for it...

No one even knew that I loved Jazz piano so much...

I couldn't get my playing to match what I wanted it to sound like.


What was I doing wrong?

Simple:

I wasn't learning step-by-step.

I was watching random videos from random teachers, and there was no structure...

After months of going it alone I still hadn't cracked the code...

It looked like my 'Jazz piano days' were coming to an end and I was about to give up...


Then I Tried Something Different...

Finally I found a Jazz piano teacher who was teaching in a nearby town...

I managed to book a lesson and made the one-hour bus ride to his house...

Within 5 minutes of stting down at the piano for my first lesson - I knew this was EXACTLY what I had been missing...

A qualified Jazz piano teacher who could teach me step-by-step, from the ground up...

I got answers to my questions, and we filled in the gaps to my Jazz theory knowledge...


The Results were Obvious

Within a short time, I noticed people would gather around the piano whenever I played...

Whether it was before music class, or at a friend's house...

If I started to play something, there'd be 4 or 5 people who would gather around to watch...

(That NEVER used to happen!)

People would clap after I played, and give compliments...

Parents of friend's would insist that I play their piano whenever I visited them...

And all of this changed within a short period of time - in as little as 4 months of step-by-step lessons...


Fast-forward to today...

I have now TRULY reached my Jazz piano goals and enjoyed countless public performances...

I studied music for undergrad and postgrad...

And I got to play, compose, and conduct for my college big band...

Having a passion for Jazz piano wasn't enough...

I still needed a teacher who could put it all together for me and teach me in the right order...

If it wasn't for my step by step lessons, I would never have achieved any of this.


All of your Jazz Piano Struggles End Now...

I want to remove the guesswork from your practice...

So I've filmed all the lessons I would normally teach to students over a 5-year period...

I've edited those lessons into concise 15 minute videos, with printable lesson notes...

And I've organized those lessons into step-by-step courses - each focused on one aspect of jazz piano:

Improv, chord voicings, theory, playing songs from a real book, different jazz styles, and more...

Just watch the lessons in order and you'll be able to learn at light-speed...

You can race through YEARS of jazz piano education in the next few months...

Prerequisites

Before you start the Jazz Tutorial courses I recommend you have:

  • 5+ years piano-playing experience - so that you’re familiar with the instrument and can focus on learning Jazz.

  • Basic music theory - you're familiar with major scales, minor scales, major chords, and minor chords. Basic knowledge of the 12 keys will be helpful.

  • Reading music recommended (treble clef only) - Most of my lessons DO NOT require you to read music. However, to play jazz songs from a real book you'll need to read treble clef.

If you're not sure you meet these requirements - you can try the courses and decide for yourself. You have my money-back guarantee.
