Piano Kickstart is a 7-day, step-by-step piano program for adult beginners. In just one week, you’ll learn 3 real songs and follow a simple daily plan so you finally know exactly what to practice and how to practice. Along the way, you’ll build the essential foundations of piano playing through a clear method rooted in classical training.

Adult beginners, "rusty returners", and anyone who feels they have gaps in their piano knowledge and wants to play real music, not kiddie-sounding tunes, and follow a step-by-step plan to improve hand coordination and build strong piano foundations. If you can follow a short video and spend 20-30 minutes a day at the keyboard, this is for you.

No. You do not need to read music or have taken lessons before. I walk you through each step assuming you’re starting from zero.

Plan on about 10 minutes to watch the lesson and 10–20 minutes to practice. If you can consistently give it 20–30 minutes a day for one week, you’ll get the full benefit.

- A piano or keyboard (start with what you have)

- Internet connection and a device (phone, tablet, or laptop)

- Headphones are helpful but optional

That’s it!

Yes, it’s 100% free. Piano Kickstart is the first step of my full 100‑Day program. Some people love it and choose to keep going with my paid program. That's what lets me keep this first step completely free for everyone else.

Most free lessons are random. Piano Kickstart is a step-by-step plan: 7 days, 3 songs, and foundational training that focuses on the three most common problems: hand coordination, rhythm, and technique. In Piano Kickstart, you’re not just watching videos, you’re following a proven sequence to get you visible improvement.

By the end of the week, you’ll:

- Play 3 real pieces with both hands together

- Understand the basics of rhythm, foundational technique, and how to navigate the keyboard

- Sit down at the piano with more confidence, more enjoyment, and a real sense of progress.

You can move through the lessons at the pace that works best for you. Some people move faster, others take more time - what matters is that you keep going. You’ll keep access to the lessons, so you can revisit, repeat, or catch up whenever needed. The 7-day format is meant to give you focus and structure, not act as a deadline.

Most of my students are adults who thought the exact same thing. But no — you are not too old, and you do not need special talent to start. Most adults struggle not because of age or ability, but because they have never been given a clear plan and a consistent way to practice. If you can follow instructions, show up regularly, and keep going, you can absolutely improve.

Piano Kickstart is your test drive. It gives you a feel for my teaching style and gets you playing right away. If you want to continue, I’ll invite you into the 100-Day Roadmap, where you’ll follow a clear day-by-day plan, learn to read sheet music, build strong technique and rhythm, and get you playing intermediate-level pieces. In the higher tier, you can also get personalized weekly feedback from me to fix problems faster, stay on track, and move forward with more confidence.

You’ll get an email with your login and a “Start Here” video. Day 1 is ready immediately. You can begin today or tomorrow, but I recommend starting within 24 hours while you’re still excited.

Piano Skool teaches through our signature Play-Anything System — a step-by-step method designed to help adults learn real songs while building the skills to eventually figure out music on their own.

We don’t make students grind through the entire classical repertoire just for the sake of tradition.

Instead, we use the best parts of classical training — reading music, hand coordination, technique, rhythm, expression, and musicality — to give students the foundation they need to play the songs and pieces they actually want to play.

When you’re classically trained, your options open up.

You’re not limited to simple chord patterns or basic left-hand accompaniment.

You can learn classical pieces, movie themes, worship songs, pop arrangements, rock ballads, and more — because you understand how music works on the page and under your hands.

We balance playability with impressive sound, so the music feels achievable but still sounds beautiful on the piano.

So unless your main goal is advanced improvised jazz, our method is built to help you become the kind of pianist who can read, learn, practice, and perform real music with confidence.

Piano Kickstart is a self-paced 7‑day challenge – you don’t get 1‑on‑1 lessons or personalized feedback in this free program.

You’re not completely on your own, though. If something breaks (video won’t play, can’t access a lesson, sheet music issue), you can reach out through our student support form and we’ll help you get unstuck within 2 business days.

Our goal with Kickstart is simple: get you playing 3 real songs and feeling, “I can actually do this,” without needing constant hand‑holding.

If you already know you’ll want personalized feedback, you’ll see options for that after you complete the challenge.
