Excellent
introducing the Latin Jazz with a the new F scale , the lesson pace is ammazing and giving a lot of motivation to complete
Good and structured
I looked at this course to get some inspiration. Usually I look at the more advanced courses, but I really liked the structure and the progression of the course. I am a music teacher myself, and I got a lot of ideas about how to teach the style, and chord inversions. The song is catchy, and the course is recommended. I especially like when the rhythm patterns are clearly shown.
It was a fun groove and the steps made sense.
I found the melody to be a good foundation for improvising another melody line and I also played with the rhythm. I love Latin music so this was really fun.
Great & fun!
As good as the previous lessons. Can’t wait starting next!
Best in this series so far
Being a rank beginner, each set of lessons has its own set of challenges. For me, this was the best lesson yet a bit more fun than some of the others. As always, the logic behind the lessons is excellent and very logical. No cutting corners, that won't work, but gives you the meat of what you need to know to advance.
