Piano Boot Camp 1 and 2

Master the Basics of Beginning Piano and Beyond The Basics

  • HI AWESOME PIANIST!

    Oops! It looks like you followed an old link. Don't worry! This course is still available, but not on this platform. You can find it at ThePianoKeys.com. See you soon!

  • A fun, simple, and effective method for absolute beginners!

    How can professional pianists learn hundreds of songs and play them beautifully, while it takes you weeks, even months to learn one short song?  It's simple. The professional pianist (or even a very advanced amateur) has the "inside knowledge" about how music is put together and how to practice effectively.

  • You don't need years of lessons and 3-hour-a-day practice sessions to learn the basics of playing the piano!

    What you need is a teacher who gives you clear and simple information and shows you how to put it to use. 

  • In this course you will learn how to:

    read and play with both hands and practice effectively so that the time you spend at the piano gives you the maximum results. Unlimited access for one year after purchase.

  • If you have 10 minutes a day, a desire to learn, a piano (or keyboard), then you've got everything it takes for success.

    Piano Boot Camp gives you a solid beginning piano education in fun and clearly explained lessons that focus on one skill at a time. As you progress through the course, you build your knowledge and skills layer by layer. And you learn how to practice for the best results in the shortest amount of time.
