I’m with you. I’m also a guitar player for about 30 years and good at the instrument. I started playing piano recently and thought I wouldn’t have an issue since my picking hand and fretting hand don’t do the same thing either. I feel like my guitar playing has really only helped with the fact that I have decent finger independence. Other than that, I’m struggling.

When you begin piano, the right and left hand each learn a separate horizontal sequence of notes. When you begin hands together, view the score as vertical stacks of notes played at the same time. This step orients the brain to coordinate the hands. For each stack of more than two notes, slowly move through the score playing each stack and using the fingers you used in learning each hand separately. When you can repeat this effortlessly, stack by stack, slowly play with hands together, watching the stacks come by and go. No tears, no fears, no sweat.

Just starting your tutorials. I"m trained to grade 9 Royal conservatory but haven't played in 30 years. Trying to get back at it as I approach retirement. Really want to learn how to play extemporatiously! Loving this first set up hand exercises. got to the poly part and will have to work at that. Thank you! this is fun again!
I found useful to forget that you have 2 hands since the beginning, and use your 10 fingers as if they were on one hand. Feed your memory with this, it will work. The one problem with this is that once you master the song it becomes difficult to play it with one hand.
The KZread algorithm drew me to your channel. Just what my un-coordinated left hand needed. Cheers!

I'm left-handed, ALL 12 of my students are right-handed. My son, who also takes piano through his school, is also right-handed. One of the first things I teach is LH strengthening exercises. I challenge them to use their left hand in everyday activities such as eating or drinking. I also found some great exercises found at the end of John Thompson's 2nd Grade book for taking students through little exercises to strengthen and coordinate each finger. I will certainly share this video with them.

Hi Jazer, first of all many thanks from Italy for your content sharing. I'm a total beginner of piano (playing it by 2 weeks), but I've seen many of your videos and they are great!!!You explain clearly and at the same time transmit your passion to newbies like me, really appreciate. Talking about this exercises, I'm playing by 2 weeks and i keep 10 minutes at the end for playing these exercises, I've quite mastered the first 8, but I'm epic failing the last 2 with polyphony :D
These exercises look awesome. Thank you. I probably spent 10 hours on piano over 1 month and then came across these exercises today. Reached level 3 today but will try to spend 30 minutes a day to see where I can reach. Day 3: Got to level 4. Slow and steady. Find it difficult to switch between 3 and 4 but i suppose that is ok Day 4 and 5: Able to reach up to level 8 now but no success in matching metronome yet. In case anyone is reading this, what clicked for me was this : I looked and concentrated only on hand that was doing more repetitions and somehow it worked for me as other hand at that time is just doing one key at a time and that is probably taken care of by level 1 and 2 practice. That is just my guess. Now to level 9 tomorrow. 😅😅

I am in my 61st year and tomorrow I will have been playing for two weeks. Understanding the need for the basics, I am concentrating more on technical skills than trying to learn songs at this point (the one exception is Autumn Leaves). I have watched a number of your videos for beginners, and your tutorials have helped greatly, especially keeping the fingers on the keys. I have noticed that my thumbs are the hardest to control, not that I am lifting, but they tend to move sideways (to either the B [in the right hand] or the A [in the left]). But I'll get it down. Thanks so much and I look forward to learning more from you. Keep up the good work! (Yes, I have mashed all the requisite buttons.)

About 2-years ago I watched a video that taught me how chords worked and that opened up a whole lot but I'd never been able to grasp the concept of playing with 2 hands other than one finger on the same beat. I first watched this video on Feb 1st and these exercises, up to #8, changed the way I'm able to use my left hand. Last night I felt ready to try exercise 9 and I was fully lost but then I saw your slowed down video and it made sense to me! The hand percussion totally put it into my head and a couple of hours later I was actually able to do it! Thank you so much! #10 once I'm fully comfortable with this. Also from some of your other videos, your advice to repeat something 7-times, that it's better to do it slowly and correctly over quickly and wrong, and practicing small sections rather than the whole thing have also really helped. Thanks again.
This is brilliant, the level 5 is where the big challenge starts. As a guitarist I have long dreamed of systematic piano practice, and now I luckily found your lessons.
Buying my first keyboard piano this Friday and starting from absolute zero next week so I'ma sub for sure.
I'm 28 and just started playing keyboard this week, this has been a super helpful exercise! I can do the first 8, but 2-3 is really messing with my brain haha
This is beautiful!! I haven't played piano in almost 10 years and had a little fright at the higher levels but definitely something fun to play with in my down time! I am excited to work my way through your videos and see how much I can learn again! Thank you!! 💜

How did it go
You are a great teacher. Thank you for your videos.
Jazer I love your way of teaching - your video on how to practice the right thing has motivated me to start learning piano. I currently have very poor coordination - I've been trying to do the first fun exercise (thumping/stroking leg) and failing so far. I'm trying slowing it right down and still struggling. Would love any tips from anyone reading here! Thank you all :)
Thank you so much! Started learning piano this year. Was feeling like my brain is burning while was doing these exercises. Hope it will get easier over time 🌝
Firstly, thank you for sharing these invaluable learning techniques. As a beginner there is enough study material to keep me busy for a while and hopefully enhance my coordination. First day and I am comfortably up to 5. Thanks again.
Level 4 is where it became challenging for my brain 🧠! Thank you for teaching 🙏
I need to practice a lot. Thank you.
Jazer you have a special gift for teaching and an awesome piano player. I will add this hands-together exercise to my daily practice because it is exactly what I need. Thank you!

@@Justy589 I did it by practicing it three times a day for a week. These exercises take a lot of practice, because you have to overcome what your hands would normally do. Once you manage to get past level 3 and 4, levels 5 to 8 become a lot easier.

This is my first time playing piano,good thing I found your video!
Love this! My son loves piano and his piano skills is much greater than when he started!
Jazer, you make playing piano fun again! I took some foundational lessons as a kid, but no one ever taught me these type of warm-ups and tricks, so I wasn’t making gains or practicing efficiently. I stumbled upon your KZread Channel via a happy accident yesterday and already I finally got my left and right hands to play Linus and Lucy correctly! You’re a fantastic teacher. Thanks for making it accessible online for Alaskans and others like me with limited resources for professional lessons! Subscribed and following! You have a friend in Anchorage for sure!
This video alone made me subscribed!!! Im teaching myself piano and I have a lot of trouble separating the motion of my hands and these set of exercises are the most helpful ones I’ve found! Thank you! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for sharing you knowledge, Very nice technique. Very helpful
I bought a piano this month, and this is the perfect tutorial I need!!
Thank you so much. I made it up to pt2 lesson 9-10 before I was challenged! I love these videos...im really excited about playing/practicing again.
Thanks Jazer for lesson. I recognized all melodies you played.
This is excellent…….thank you for your clear instructions
Thanks so much for this. You rock as a guide into this! I used to play with two hands as a kid, and just stopped because it was too hard. Now at 31, I am coming back to it and these exercises will propel me so one day I can be called "Two-hand man"
4 Days in with Level 4. Thank you for these videos. I've been looking for something just like this!
I am so glad I found your lessons. I am self taught on piano and I have so many bad habits. The strange thing is, I have a Master's Degree in music (vocal) and I also compose music. I composed a set of 3 songs for my Master's Recital but I cannot play any of them as they are too complicated. At the time, I bought the Finale software and input all the music one note at a time. The first time I played it back on the computer, I cried when I heard it (tears of joy). Vocally, I can sight-read just about anything, but on the piano, I can sight read it until I have to play it. When I compose, I hear it in my head, then write it down. I would love to be able to play the piano parts as I hear them in my head. I have a very good understanding of music theory, but my piano skills are so weak. I would like to be able to play my compositions. I am hoping your series of lessons will help me out! They make a lot of sense. Just curious, how long do you think it would take me to become somewhat proficient?

My own finger and thumb-bungling tell me that it can't be done. I'm 75, and an absolute piano and music beginner. BUT, I knew it wouldn't come easy at this age, so I'll keep trying. It sounds like you're a good musician, in your own right. Hopefully you, too, can make some headway. Good Luck
This will certainly take some practising but as a, newbie will keep trying, great lesson thanks

wow bloody practical way of learning piano techniques thank you sir!
I actually play piano since 3 years and I still have problems using both hands, thank you this video helped me a lot!
Really helpful exercises. Thank you for introducing them to me! I find counting out loud while doing them helps to improve smoothness and timing accuracy.
Legit went from messing up in the same song over and over again searched up this video did the exercises and got it.thank you 🙏
This video has helped me allot as a beginner beginner
II'm an absolute beginner here (2 weeks and counting). It took me a few days to get to level 7 & 8. I think it will take longer than that to crack level 9. What helped me though was to focus my concentration on the hand that was doing the quicker movement as that is what helped me do the exercise you showed at the beginning - having kept thumping the palm of my hand on leg rather than stroking it 🙂. Absolutely love your channel! Thanks for sharing your gift.
Great lesson I've just started the piano and find them very useful ...you have a calm approach and very clear teaching method much appreciated!
I am a beginner with no previous knowledge of piano but when I tried it at first I was stuck at level 2! And I had no idea how to reach level 10 but in under 24 hours I was able to reach to level 4 and now I am practicing level 5. I just mean to say that if I can do it, trust me anybody can do it. Just keep on practicing and don't give up no matter what. I am pretty confident that within the coming week I'll be able to reach level 10 or if not 1 week then let it be 1 month I don’t care, I will keep on honing my skills till I master all the levels. So to anyone starting new out there just don’t loose hope and keep on practicing....you CAN do it!✌️🔥

I reached level 6...🙌 But make sure to master each level before moving forward and keep on practicing each level till your hands start to burn and when you feel like you can play that level without looking or with minimum hand tension then great! Move on to the next level...

I'm also a beginner, a few years ago I purchased a PSS-F30 to try and learn with and I failed at it miserably. I pretty much gave up on it and went back to guitar. Recently I felt the urge again but looking back at my mistakes with that mini keyboard I decided to buy a full-scale keyboard instead, a p225b, and it immediately improved everything.

@@rproctor83That's impressive dude👏 Just keep on practicing from now on and you will notice that you can even do what seemed impossible to you at first glance with a considerable amount of practice. Also I was able to reach level 10, I was a bit late to update as I was having my exams and was not able to play much but 10-15 mins per day. But I finally learned how to play till level 10. Even though I still make some mistakes while playing level 10 specially, but I got the hang of it now and it's only gonna get easier from here on. So just keep on practicing dude because there is no shortcut in developing your skills. You need to earn them through practice. That's the only way, so keep on practicing and I wish you all the best✌️😁 I am also attaching the link for the video that helped me through level 9 and 10, hope it helps 😁 kzread.info/dash/bejne/gYyO1byCdbrSkqQ.htmlfeature=shared

I learned playing piano by watching ppl play on yt and memorising their finger movements it was really hard at first and I sucked so bad but it was fun so kept going later after I got better I actually signed up for piano lessons so they could teach me cords
Perfect video just the one I needed ❤
Picked up the Trumpet about 8 years ago and decided at age 61 to learn to play the piano (well, a keyboard). I can't believe how hard playing with two hands is and then after watching this video and trying the coordination exercise how uncoordinated I am with my weak hand. Will be working on this for a while and hope I can get past level 2 in a week or so. Thanks for the great video!

@@yna0791 if you are doing this on a keyboard, put the tempo really slow, like I started at 30, and then gradually got faster by 5’s or 10’s until I reached the fastness that the person in the video was going. If you are not on a keyboard, you can put a tempo on your phone.
