    One of the best decisions i have made in life was to take this course. If you want to be proficient at playing piano, you want your fingers to work independently, your hands to work independently and you want your hands/fingers to be able to move up and down the keyboard as needed. This course builds those skills up gradually. Marina (The teacher) has made excercises for this course. You are not just shown how to do them. You are doing them as she talks you through them. And then you are encouraged to do them again on your own before you move on tho the next excercise. This facilitates that you are not simply finishing an exercise, but actually learning what the excercise is meant to teach. As you can tell from the title, there’s lots of humour involved as well. Marina is a joyful and humoristic teacher. Taking this course feels more like having a friend sitting next to you than simply watching a set of instructions and then carrying them out. I like that a lot in an online course. So have I benefitted from this course? Absolutely yes. I feel that hand/finger movements automatically do what they are supposed to right from the beginning of learning new pieces. So I give this course the highest recommendations. And I can’t wait to get started on the sequel.

    I recommend this to anyone wanting to improve their piano technique and their overall piano playing quality. The following are some of the benefits I've notices since completing PSH1... (you will need to scroll up to see all comments) Finally I can play all 12 major scales from memory and with fairly good precision and pace. A by-product of practicing the scales and other exercises in PSH1 is better posture at the piano and better hand / wrist technique which allows me to play more often and longer without too much discomfort. Also, after practicing the scales and arpeggios in PSH1, finger determination for new songs seems to come more easily and faster than before PSH1 course. I will post more after I get further along in PSH2. One last comment on this topic: I've recently began learning O Holy Night. Using the melody notes from a church hymnal but am improvising an arpeggio pattern in the left hand. The arpeggio patterns practiced in PSH1 are proving very useful while learning this song.

  • Excellent exercises.

    When I started this training I wouldn't have believed that my wrist would get so relaxed. Still having difficulty with the ring finger on my left hand, but I'm very confident it will improve. Well done Marina!

    I’m very happy to be able to learn with this comprehensive technique course. Have worked in Exercise 1 - right hand so far, and this exercise is very enjoyable to work with. The tricky thumb under motion is repeatedly drilled until it feels second nature and correct body posture and how the wrists, hands and finger feel - and what they should be doing while playing - is continually reinforced throughout, so I’m understanding and feeling what my arms, hands and fingers should be doing. Looking forward to my continued learning experience with this course.
