My Philosophy
Chords & Rhythm First
you can get to reading sheet-music later (you likely won't want to)
- Chord Piano = Playing modern-style piano by ear, by heart, without needing sheets, due to a foundational understanding of music.

1. Fans
I strongly believe that with any skill, the first step, first phase, is an overall binding factor. The reason you’re here – love. For music. We’re all fans. However, music -like anything, really- gets so much more interesting when you understand what’s happening. Speak the language. Everybody that plays will confirm this.
2. Evolve
Learning, then, is only a natural consequence. A logical next step in the journey, evolution.
That’s why I am so proud that I am currently helping over 120,000 students from all over the world learn.
To become musicians.
Brothers in arms that live a musical lifestyle, whether professionally or not.

Learning with- and from each other is even better. Transfer your knowledge to cause growth.
