Jazz / Blues / Rock piano for the beginner
How do you play non-classical music? The students will learn how to play non-classical music (jazz, blues, rock, etc. ), read chords and improvise on the piano. This is going to be fun.

Even though you have played the piano reading the sheet music, you might have wondered how pianists play jazz, blues, rock, and other non-classical music. They read chords and improvise as well as read written notes. But is there anything else they do? In this one-time class, students will learn the basic idea of how to play non-classical music, chords and improvisation. All including the students who have never played the piano is welcome. This class will be more of a discussion style and the instructor will demonstrate playing the piano, use recordings and PDFs. I studied the piano of classical music for a long time and then switched to non-classical music. I understand both sides of practice performance. This experience will be brought into teaching to make the piano more interesting, fun, and professional.

Hi, こんにちは, I am originally from Japan and live in the U.S. for 16 years. I teach Piano (basic and intermediate for classical music and non-classical music including jazz, rock, pop and musical), Musical composition, and Japanese and focus on the beginner and intermediate students. Of course, advanced students are also welcome. I have been teaching these three subjects at university and music school, and I love teaching all ages both group and one-on-one lessons. I love teaching because I enjoy working with students and seeing their faces, who work hard, solve problems, and feel confident. This is a big reward for me.
My purpose in teaching is that I want you to have fun first. Learning new things and practicing them are sometimes frustrating because it takes time. I know this because I have been there! I am here for you and let's work together. I look forward to seeing you soon.
I am from Japan and love books, traveling, food, good TV shows, and films, old cartoon and music! Reviews
