Can I really take piano lessons online and learn how to play piano?

You certainly can. We have an growing library of piano lessons. Members can watch as many piano lessons as they want, whenever they want. In other words, as a member you can go anywhere on our site and download as much as you want. If you?re a complete beginner to the piano then you can focus on the 'basic' piano lessons and then hone in on a special piano lesson style you might want to play. If you?ve been taking piano lessons for a while you might start with some advanced topics.

We suggest piano lessons to you in an order that builds your skills progressively, and you can decide when and how you want to advance your piano playing.

Is it better to take piano lessons with a teacher next to me?... or can I learn to piano online?

There are big benefits to both ways of learning how to play the piano. However, the advantages of taking piano lessons online can be even greater.

You can have piano lessons whenever you want.

You can have as many piano lessons as you want.

Online piano lessons are really cheap ($5 per week vs. $50+ for an hour piano lesson)

Our piano teacher is a professional gigging/touring musician currently teaching in one of Australia?s top music universities. You can view Daves' credentials and touring dates at www.davespicermusic.com

There are definitely advantages in having piano lessons with a piano teacher in person. The main one is that they can correct posture/technique problems that an online piano teacher cannot. However, for $5 a week for unlimited piano lessons, you simply can't go wrong even if it's only for some extra tips.

What style of music will I play?

Anything you want.

       ?no, Seriously?

The more accurate question is "What style would you like to play?". We have many styles in our piano lesson library already, but we teach you something far greater. You see, during piano lessons most ?traditional? piano teachers will drill piano exercises into you until you can?t take anymore. They?ll also work on one piece for months and then you choose another piano piece. If you were asked to just sit down and play the piano ? it would be very rare indeed that you could play anything different from the few piano pieces that you?d learnt.

The big difference here is that our piano lessons teach you the ?rules? of music. (piano chords, piano feels, piano styles, basslines, grooves, scales, modes, etc?) Our piano lessons are taught in a way that get you playing piano straight away, and allows you to jam with friends and pick up piano music and play. In particular ? chord charts and downloaded popular/jazz/contemporary songs.

After you've taken a handful of piano lessons you?ll notice that you can play one song in heaps of different piano styles ? whether it?s swing/pop/bossa/ or even country. Once these piano lessons show you the rules, it really opens doors and it?ll always be enjoyable.

How many piano lessons will I need before I can play the piano?

Tough question? I guess that?s up to you. Everybody learns the piano at a different rate. However, we?ll go out on a limb here and say ?we think you?ll learn faster here with our piano lessons, than with any other piano lessons or method we?ve seen?.

We say that because the usual (and very outdated way of teaching beginner piano lessons) is to play a few songs with only one note. Then you add another piano note. After a few months you?ve got 3 piano notes and you?re playing ?hot cross buns? ? one handed too.

We figure you can learn faster than that and we've have made piano lessons to suit you.

After the piano lesson ?The Basics  Piano Lesson 1? ? You?ll be playing every note on the piano with backing tracks

After the piano lesson ?The Basics Piano Lesson 2? ? You?ll understand the common characteristics of piano chords and piano basslines (these too have backing tracks.)

After the piano lesson ?The Basics Piano Lesson 3? ? You?ll be playing every major chord on the piano ? quickly and effortlessly ? guaranteed.

After the piano lesson 'The Basics Piano Lesson 10' - You'll understand many rules of music, you'll be able to play every triad piano chord under the sun, heaps of pop piano grooves, you'll be fluent around all twelve keys and you'll be able to play basic Pop Piano, Tango Piano, Rock'n'Roll Piano, Country Piano, Blues Piano, Swing Piano, Bossa Piano and Boogie Woogie Piano.

The progression can be really quick ? but it?s up to you. Remember, that you can take as many piano lessons whenever you want.

Do I need a piano or a Keyboard?

It will be hard to play what you learn from your piano lessons without one. However, it doesn?t matter which one you?ve got. These piano lessons (or keyboard lessons) are equally created for pianos and keyboards.

Do you offer any guarantees?

We offer the guarantee of guarantees!! We?re so confident that you?ll be playing music with our piano lessons and having fun that if you?re not happy within 30 days ? we?ll refund your fees and you can any piano lesson material that you may have downloaded.
