Professional development
For all dedicated pianists
For all dedicated pianists.
This is a specialized program designed to assist pianists, teachers, and advanced students in solving difficult problems. Having a trusted partner with strong support and skilled expertise in the arts/music will enhance the creative and fruitful process.
The holistic piano pedagogy I offer is intended to help all piano teachers and pianists who are unable to solve problems on their own. Knowledge is a powerful thing. Equipping and realizing them enables us to assist others. This is our mission. During my consultation, I will guide you through the process of resolving music or piano-related issues.
Let's learn together for tomorrow's piano students.
Techniques are the most frequently asked questions by pianists and teachers.
. Understanding human anatomy will aid and resolve this issue. Once you have mastered tension-free technique, your technique will improve dramatically, as will your teaching skills.
Another popular topic is home practices, both for your students and for yourself.
Home practice has recently become one of the most challenging tasks for everyone. This is likely the result of our overall lifestyle change, but there are always solutions.
I will help you support your students during lessons and teach parents how to support their children's daily music practice at home.
The final factor combines the previous two.
The majority of injuries are the result of a series of misunderstandings about our bodies.
By learning tension-free piano playing and adjusting your technique, you will find it easier to play and spend less time practicing.
This is a summary of the program that everyone who seeks my assistance will learn.
As a teacher or pianist, you can use these tools to express your creativity.

For pianists and advanced piano students
-
Tension-free piano techniques: Understanding human anatomy.
-
Interpretation: learning advanced piano technique in order to produce a wide range of tones and achieve the desired effect with the piano.
-
Addressing performance anxiety through neuroscience and physical exercise.
Leaning "Datsuryoku," a tension-free piano technique based on human anatomy, prevents injury and thousands of hours of mindless repetition in daily practice.
Once we can play without tension, we will learn basic and advanced piano techniques before focusing on how to realize our interpretation.
Piano pedagogy
We can only teach what we know and do.
Learning holistic piano pedagogy and "Datsuryoku," tension-free techniques, can help students save thousands of hours of practice time. Piano pedagogy cannot be developed without an individual's piano playing skills and artistic comprehension. Developing and constantly improving your own musical skills contributes to higher teaching quality and pedagogical effectiveness.
These are the same two sides of a coin, and they cannot be separated.

What is piano technique?
Intermediates pedagogy:
