As students have been walking through coaching rounds (and through my years of experience teaching adult and older teen students learn piano chords) we always seem to run into the same speedbump.
After about 2 months, they get behind in the material and are tempted to quit.
So many of them do quit.
Or they feel badly because they have to pause lessons.
Or they don’t have time to finish the online material within the 3-month coaching round and lose access when it’s over.
So I started thinking, what if they didn’t have to?
- What if they didn’t have to finish “on time?”
- What if they didn’t have to feel like they’re wasting my time because they didn’t practice that week?
- What if they could fit practice into their schedule when it’s convenient?
- What if taking 2 weeks to finish one lesson was ok?
- What if I was always available to give them their 1-on-1 coaching when THEY were ready for it? Whether it was once a week, or twice a month, or even monthly?
- What if it was priced at a point that wouldn’t hurt their budget?
- What if they could finally reach their goals?
- What if they were consistently EXCITED about their success instead of feeling defeated?
So I fixed the problem!!
I’m in the process of creating a membership for my students where they can learn or grow in their skills on their own terms. Within their own schedule. On their own time. And they’d never lose access to their content because coaching rounds never end!!
I’m looking for a set of 20 Founding Members who will help me build this program up to provide the best instruction, the most helpful learning environment, the most easily accessible content, and who love to give feedback on their favorite ways to get 1-on-1 coaching within the membership.
I have the first 3-6 months worth of content already, but I’ll be adding to it based on who my students are, so I can take them from where they are to where they want to go!
And my Founding Members will get to provide feedback on what’s working and what’s not, what they love and what they’d love to see added or upgraded.
Doors will be opening in November so if this sounds like something you’d be interested in being a part of, get on the Founding Member waitlist today.
I’m only taking 20 before we start our test drive, and I’m offering it to you first because you’re a part of my tribe!
Next week I will be starting to open the offer to folks on social media, but you guys get first crack at it.
After I get the initial 20 Founding Members, I’ll be closing the doors for a short bit and will just have a waitlist for the full-price official opening until we run a test drive and I can get your feedback.
So if this sounds like something you’d find valuable, please don’t wait! I’d love to see some of your bright shiny faces again in the Membership. I’d love to see how far you’ve come since our last coaching round.
Weekly Challenge 💪🏻
See how many scales you can write out from memory! Try it every day and see how many you have mastered.
Practice that this week and then post a pic of your work on Takeaway Tuesday.
Drill of the Week! 🎶
This week’s drill is a hand independence drill that alternates between playing loudly and softly!
CLICK HERE to view the demonstration
This exercise will help rewire your brain by requiring you to play loudly with one hand and softly with the other, all while playing together in unison. The notes are simple, but playing it is not. 🙂
Be sure to play slowly and steadily in the beginning. Don’t pick up the speed until you can feel yourself being able to focus on one hand at a time. Even if it takes days (or longer!)
Practice this exercise 10x daily.
