Your parents made you take piano lessons, but you quit as soon as you could. Now, you wish that you’d stuck with it.
You feel like you just don’t have the second lifetime it would take to learn to play well enough to perform in front of an audience.
You just don’t have years to play through all the kiddie material so that, in a decade, you can sound like a pro pianist.
If you’ve had these thoughts, you’re in great company.
The truth is that playing jazz piano is not some esoteric skill that only a few incredibly gifted prodigies can master. There are certain essentials that a working pianist knows and uses constantly, and you can learn them at any age.

After you enroll, you’ll have immediate access to the entire course and all 12 modules. While the course is designed to take 12 weeks, it’s self-paced so that you can move as quickly or slowly as you like.
This course is perfect for you if:
You’re a complete novice at the piano and you want to start your journey by learning jazz.
You learned some piano as a kid but let your training fall by the wayside.
You’ve had some experience reading music, but never learned to improvise and create your own.
You already understand chords and scales, but you’ve never learned to voice those chords to get that jazz sound.
This course might not be a good fit if:
You already know how to read and play from a leadsheet.
You can already play jazz and just want to learn how to improvise.
You want to learn how to play “rootless voicings” so that you can play with a bass player.
You want to learn to play piano generally, but not specifically jazz music. The voicings that make up a large part of this course are designed to sound like jazz, plain and simple!
Jazz Piano Pro Essentials was born from years of teaching piano lessons and writing in students’ notebooks. When I realized that I was writing the same notes over and over, I began to distill that repeat advice down into my own unique system for teaching jazz piano that takes students from zero to being able to read and play lead sheets.
I’m passionate about helping my students play the beautiful music inside them, and I can’t wait for you to join me in Jazz Piano Pro Essentials!
