Memorize 100s of chords, impossible!

This 5 star review says you can AND it'll be fun AND transform your playing!

Do you think "But I could never remember that much?" It's ok, I've got you. I’ll step you through my system, using some effective memory prompts that help you do just that. You actually only need to remember a few very simple shapes to have 100s of chords at your fingertips. So you can then play any song you want. But..is it the 'right way' for you?..

What I learned from my adult piano journey

I've been a pro drummer and even I thought piano was impossible. Until another Pro shared with me how musicians used to pass songs around. It included memorizing piano chords, in a way that only took an hour or two, to learn 100s chords! Immediatly I could play any song I wanted, no scales or notation needed! I used my musical experiences to found a highly successful award winning Social Enterprise, helping youth create music, quickly. As a result, I was invited to do a Masters in Education at Cambridge University. I discovered even better ways to simplify the complicated, and make ideas stick in peoples heads. Using psychology to leverage how the brain works best, using patterns. It's all so much easier than you think to play piano. All of the above has contributed to me designing this unique system (used by over 18,300 people so far). Successfully helping beginners like you have fun, playing piano ,as quickly and as easily as possible, with some seriously amazing results.

Pick up and play guy

Max

"I'm more of a pick-up-and-play sorta guy! This course has literally taken me from knowing a few chords (and not remembering them!) to opening up a whole new world of musical possibilities"  Adam

I was in shock

Gregory

"For years, I've been wanting to learn the piano, but always postponed it as it seemed so difficult. Halfway through this course I was already trying all kinds of things out on my piano, and was in shock that it all worked out."

Fur Alise for hours? - no thanks

Janice

"Excellent teacher who understands that not all of us want to play Fur Alise and sit playing scales for months on end"

Frustration over

Adam

I can't believe that it took me 2 music teachers and 1 year of frustration before I found someone who could just EXPLAIN IT. It's so silly they don't teach piano like this from start. Thank you!

the most helpful piano course I've ever had

Ugonna

This was the most helpful piano course I've ever had, taught me more about chords and fingering than any other course and I didn't feel "stuck" like I have before in other courses or books I was using.

Tried before but this..

Kilgore

I learned more in 30 minutes than I ever did before despite having tried multiple times in my life.

First time leaving a review!

Neel

This is the first time I'm leaving a review on any site. Great teachers like Simon can bring the best out of every level of the piano student. Simon is at the top of his game in this course.

Amazed at how quick

Lochee

I was amazed at how quickly I was able to pick it up and start playing. The shape and anchor method really help, definitely give this a try.

So well structured

Anon

What a brilliant course! So well structured and taught. Wish I’d found this sooner!

FAQ

Some common questions

  • Do I need any musical experience?

    No not at all. Its my job to explain it in a way that anyone can understand, which I've done 1000s of times. If you don't get it that's on me and you can just get a refund - you won't need to though.

  • Do I need a piano?

    Any keyboard or piano will do. If you don't have one, some students have used free apps on their tablets or phones even

  • Do I need to read music?

    No, absolutely not. I will show you how to find simple information online that will show you what chords to play easily and the course teaches you how to memorise those chords easily

  • Do I need big hands?

    Errr.. no

  • Am I too young/old/tall/short etc?

    No, using this method anyone can realise their dream of becoming someone who can play the piano

  • Is it cheating?

    No. This is not about teaching you to learn classical piano. That is a very different, long and difficult journey. This is about having fun playing the songs you want to and if that's cheating then there is something seriously wrong with our approach to music - which should be joyous and accessible in all its forms.

  • Will it be fun?

    YES!
