Do I need fancy equipment?

No, you simply need a device where we can see and hear each other. We will be meeting weekly on Zoom.  You will need to have the Zoom app.

How much should I practice?

We all lead full lives. Results are dependent upon the quality and quantity of students' practice sessions. The more time you put in, the greater the transformation. If you are not able to put in much time, you will still progress at your own rate. Both scenarios are acceptable and Paula will understand and support you wherever you are, and in whatever capacity you are able to commit. Please remember you will have lifetime access to the pre-recorded videos and classes. Most importantly, this is a special time for you to practice self-care and work on personal and possibly professional development. Use the course in a way that aligns with your lifestyle and goals.

What if I have never improvised?

I've got your back! That's why you are here~ to learn. :)

What if there is a variety of levels in the class?

This is encouraged! We can all be inspired by each other. Paula is very comfortable working with all levels and ages. There will be variations on each assignment to account for the range of levels. If you master the beginning level, you can immediately try the next challenge, before waiting for the next class!

What if I have to miss a class?

Not to worry, classes will be recorded and can be viewed at your convenience.

What is the difference between the Basic and Premium Packages?

The Basic Package includes all classes, guest teachers, materials, access to pre-recorded videos for up to 1 year, and support in a private Facebook group.

The Premium Package includes the Basic Package AND provides more individual support including private lessons, unlimited feedback throughout the week, a special Piano Flow music notebook, and lifetime access to all of the pre-recorded instructional videos. This is a great option for those looking for more support and guidance.

What sort of individual attention will I get?

You can ask questions at any point during the group class. Premium participants can send Paula videos and questions throughout the week and she will respond within 24-48 hours. An optional private Facebook group is available to everyone for support from Paula and the group. Once a month, there will be a "masterclass" where students will have ample time to ask questions, share insights, and gain valuable feedback. Playing in front of the other classmates is purely optional (who knows, you just might enjoy it!).

If you'd like more individual instruction, you will want to choose the Premium Package which includes a monthly private lesson.

Why should I take this now?

There is no time like the present to expand your creative skills at the piano. The power of having an independent creative outlet has never been more apparent than right now. People are yearning for community, structure, and comfort. This course will have an inspiring group of people looking to expand their minds and enrich their souls! If you know anything about Paula, you know how passionate she is about music making and teaching, and she will help get you to the next level in your piano playing. After internalizing some improvisatory concepts that will stretch and strengthen your mind, imagine how it will feel to be able to sit down at the piano, and simply entertain yourself with your own beautifully intriguing sounds!
