This helped me so much with learning some great grooves and recognizing popular songs with this chord progression. For the first time I felt like there was hope for me to sit down at the piano with no music and do something that sounded good!
Inspiring and fun
Great tools to learn. Will definitely keep practicing this course then try int/adv
Good two hand coordination workout
Difficult but attainable with some effort. A good workout and worth periodic revisits.
useful exercise
focus on rhythm
Challenging but important
I really worked on two handed rhythms and finger independence in both hands. Took some time to get it down, but surprised at what I'm playing now
