"My experience with most music teachers is they would rather be doing something else. Nik's work is an absolute breath of fresh air. I have been at this just long enough to understand where he is going, and his approach is thoughtful, beautifully presented, and a welcome treat to a player stuck in the mud! Thank you Nik!"
How I Created My Lessons
Early into my teaching career, I discovered that traditional piano curriculum does not teach adults how to flow, improvise, and play freely.
So, at 15 years old, I set on a mission to develop my own curriculum for my 48 adult weekly students. First, I reverse engineered how I played. What made people like my playing? How did I give my music feeling?
After many years of paying attention to what I was actually doing when I played, I was fortunate enough to crack the code. So, I developed unique exercises and tested out methods to help adults work up to eventually sounding like me. And the crazy thing is, it worked!
So, I recorded this video course to share with the world. 5,000+ adults have used my Fundamentals of Jazz, Blues & Gospel course successfully to playing with a soulful sound. I hope you'll join us!
