Enhancing Hand Extensions: Strength and Flexibility

In this lesson, Sara highlights the significance of hand extensions in piano playing. In any passage, to reach the desired notes, we must stretch and expand our range. Discover how to enhance your strength, flexibility, and overall technique in this essential lesson!

Mastering Repeated Notes: Speed and Accuracy

Repeated notes can quite literally be "finger-twisters", so in this lesson, let Sara guide you through the technique and art of this refined technique! Gain Speed and Precision in your playing from Sara's expert advice!

Trill with Ease: Smooth and Effortless Execution

Trills are a core part of piano playing, but often, pianists struggle with "locking of the fingers" and "uneven" trills. In this lesson, Sara guides us to mastering the art of smooth and effortless trills with any finger combination!

In this lesson, Sara teaches the fundamentals of scale playing, the Jonas approach, and also interesting new ways to practice them!
