Before I took the 10-Day Blues Challenge I had been self learning for three years with good progress. But I didn’t know the C blues scale. This took me from blues beginner and showed me a clear path to blues proficiency. I still have a lot of work to do but now I have a roadmap and I’m seeing great progress.

I completed my first course since starting with PWJ a few weeks ago. Comparing PWJ to other online courses I've taken is like comparing an elementary school lesson to a higher education level, with PWJ being more advanced. There is a saying that one eats an elephant one bite at a time. I wasn't convinced I would succeed initially because, as I write this, I've been a piano player for less than one year. At first, the song seemed busy, and I found the flicks intimidating. I've never played a jazz song before. However, I was drawn in and enjoyed the heck out of practicing. Each lesson video breaks things down into small pieces, allowing me to do one thing at a time. After I completed a lesson, I felt a great sense of accomplishment because I picked up skills I didn't have before. Eventually, the outcome was great. I watched the lesson videos repeatedly, and I'm not sure I would have gotten through them without the ability to rewatch them. As mentioned, I am a newbie to piano and music theory. The lead sheet PDFs were very helpful. I've been working on learning more about music notation, so as I progressed through the course, I started recognizing the notes on the staff. Granted, they are repeated repeatedly, but I realized that part of my overall goal to play the piano has evolved to include learning to read music. Overall, I think the course is excellent. Everything is broken into small pieces, which helped me gain confidence and inspired me to keep going

The website looks great, a very clear introduction and explanations on how to use it all. I am really inspired to get started 🥳

I've been slowly working my way through the beginner/intermediate blues courses. I've just finished the Jazzy Blues Comping course. This is the most *fun* that I've had so far. Not that the others were not instructive, but this was fun! What made it fun? In the fourth lesson you get to comp behind Johnny for three choruses. In the fifth lesson you have the chance to comp behind him for two choruses. I really these opportunities and rewound the video many times to do it another time. (I also liked the fact that this course is based on the F blues sequence, because that links back to the last lesson in the fifth Section.)

Great course to help students understand the basics about chords and diatonic scales. The information given is laid out very simply, and is an easy, yet very effective way to learn way. Awesome course

In the January 2025 challenge there was a good run through the intermediate level version of Autumn Leaves. John is great at explaining and sets a good pace. The solo was imaginative and fun.

I like the layout of the screen- two keyboards, the sheet music and video of Jonny. Encouraging and well thought out for us newbies.

I have been playing classical piano for years and was curious to see what I might have missed in my fundamentals. I definitely appreciated learning jazz and some improv right off the bat. I originally learned the root positions for C G and F chords, so I was a little confused by starting with other inversions, though caught on quickly. Looking forward to my next course!

The course is well-structured and focussed on the essentials. The explanations, examples and exercises are comprehensible, playable and eye-opening, it‘s just funny to play along with Jonny

I made it through the Diminished & Half Diminished 7th Chord Course. It was a great workout! This course was really challenging but I feel that I know how to work out all the half diminished and diminished chords and inversions. I didn't get to the recommended speed but I still think it has been a good foundation for me.

Just finished the Traditionnal Minor Blues 1

It is perfect for a beginner. Everything is well explained to get a foot in the blues. The bass line part is a challenge in this lesson. It’s really fun to learn and play. Thank you! 👈

Excellent courses, well structured and targetting different 'skill' levels. Jonny (and co. �) manages to pass on his 'enthusiasm' throughout.

Over the Rainbow Challenge. Top class teaching! John guides you step by step through different musical concepts like melody, harmonies, form and creating a solo. In the end you have a very beautiful and soulful arrangement you can enjoy whenever you want. Thank You John Proulx!

As always, Jonny is masterful and has such an inspiring and warm personality. I was surprised by how much there was in this single hour (the Cycle of 5ths in 3 Jazz Styles), and ALL of it was extremely helpful and valuable to learn!

I am actually an intermediate player and signed up for Jonny’s classes. After taking several intermediate classes, I decided I wanted to see what I was missing in the beginner classes. So, I’ve taken them from the beginning and I’ve learned things I didn’t know or practice before so it’s been very worthwhile. The classes are great. I recommend them highly.

The course took me a loooong time, but I now have a better sense of independence of the two hands. The written notes really helped. I returned to Jonny's playing so I could listen again and again. My ear helps me alot more than the clapping, but I understand how that could be a great help for some. Jonny's courses allow me to progress at my own pace.

As a classical musician, I wasn't very at ease with those chords plus the solo. I took the time to really enjoy all the teaching in this lovely piece. Finally, I am much at ease now because I understand the structure of the chords. Also, in the solo teaching part, I found it very useful to know where the licks were coming from, where they were used the most. Acquiring these notions make me confident to recognize them in other standards or songs that I love. I feel I made a great move in my journey towards being a jazz musician.
