Return to the piano – without pressure

A relaxed 4-week course for adults who used to play

*Only $99 ~ plus use the cost of this

course against any future tuition

This course is for you if…

you played the piano earlier in life, but drifted away
you feel rusty and a bit unsure where to begin
you want to enjoy playing again without pressure or performance
you like the idea of something structured, but gentle
you want to finish something — not sign up to endless lessons

This course is probably not for you if…

you’re looking for fast technical progress or exam prep
you want advanced repertoire or intense practice schedules
you thrive on deadlines, targets, and external pressure

What happens over the 4 weeks

Each week builds quietly and logically, with plenty of space to go at your own pace.

Week 1 — Start Playing
Begin playing something recognisable straight away, focusing on comfort and confidence.

Week 2 — Join the Hands
Gently bring the hands together, without rushing or tension.

Week 3 — Make It Musical
Add expression, shaping, and ease — this is where it starts to feel good.

Week 4 — Finish & Celebrate
Play the piece from start to finish, acknowledge what you’ve achieved, and decide what comes next.

Success here is simple: you finish a piece — calmly and musically.

How the course works

This course is designed for adult learners — which means flexibility and choice are built in.

One short teaching video per week
Clear assignment sheets to guide practice
Two pathways each week:

🎯 Core — enough to finish comfortably
✨ Extended — an optional stretch if you’re enjoying it

You choose what fits your energy and time.
There’s no expectation to do everything.

What makes this different

It’s designed to be finished, not endlessly continued
Practice is short, calm, and realistic for adult life
Progress is measured by comfort and musicality — not speed
You don’t have to “earn” the right to enjoy the music

This isn’t about becoming impressive.
It’s about reconnecting with something that once mattered.
