Play piano as a path to higher creativity and deeper relaxation.
Sounds good? Then this revolutionary method is for you. Get ready for a HUGE mindset-shift.
Question. Do you want to be able to play for hours WITHOUT having to practice for hours each and every song?
Do you dream of playing piano but it always seems TOO DIFFICULT for the freedom you imagine? Have you spent years longing to do it, you even started with classes. but somehow it was too difficult and you dropped it. Now after taking the "Learn to Play Piano in One Day - Level 1" you are back in the game and full of curiosity. You feel the magical pull and are burning to play more! But how? Can you really start to accompany yourself and others knowing only the major and minor triads and the major and minor scales? Can you transpose down a few keys so that you are not stressed reaching the high notes while singing?
What can you possibly do in an afternoon with only a few chords?
Well, you might be surprised when I tell you, that on this sunny summer afternoon, you will have the thrill of learning how to make those simple chords sound more luscious. Yup, that's right. in just one afternoon you will open the door to the magical place where your fingers start to slow dance through your favorite songs.
Discover easy accompaniment patterns for playing your favorite pop / rock / folk songs. Imagine that! What if learning to play piano is as easy as learning to ride a bike. Yeah, you might fall off the bike a time or two, but once you get the basics, you will be playing for hours. And cool thing is, just like with bike riding, or swinging, or walking - you will never ever lose what you learn on this weekend. Music is that innate to how we tick.
I will share with you simple secrets on how to make basic chords sound fuller and how to add more rhythm. Don't get scared. We are working with voice, laughter, imagery and things you have been doing all your life. You can do this! Yes, and that all in one afternoon. Relaxing. Invigorating.

As a professional singer-songwriter and mentor to voices changing our world, I have worked with thousands of singers who all longed to play piano but never dared. They felt dwarfed by the thought of how complicated it is and most of them did not want to play Debussy of Beethoven. I too came from a background of classical piano. I practiced scales for hours and went cross-eyed trying to remember how many sharps and flats were in each scale. Then I came across this revolutionary method and my life changed. Suddenly a light-bulb went BLING and I was able to remember all the scales and all the chords within an hour. It blew my mind.
The last three years I have been teaching this method privately to my voice clients and each and every one was able to play basic chord charts within 2-3 hours. Even clients that had never ever touched a piano, could suddenly play songs and understand the basic chord patterns. This is big stuff if you are studying voice. One of my clients had studied piano for 5 years and had dropped it in utter frustration. After one hour he went home and opened the Beatles songbook and played for 4 hours straight. His mom called me elated and he has been playing for fun ever since.
Curious?
Here is what you get after spending only one afternoon together.
