If your wrists are locked, your playing will feel harder than it needs to 🎹

A flexible and free wrist allows for:
• better tone
• less tension
• smoother movement

Don’t hold - release 😊

Don’t stay stuck on the edge of the white keys. 🎹

Sliding your fingers in between the black keys helps create better hand position, smoother movement, and less tension - especially in scales, chords, and fast passages 🎶

Sometimes small adjustments like this can make a world of a difference in your playing. ✨

❌ DON’T play piano like you’re typing on a computer keyboard.

Typing uses isolated fingers, but piano playing needs support from the hand, wrist, and arm. Our fingers don’t work alone - they help balance and transfer arm weight.

✅ DO play with supported hands.

When the hand, wrist, and arm work together, playing feels freer, stronger, and produces a much fuller sound.

Follow for more piano tips & teaching inspiration! ✨

🎹 This exercise can be used with any key with a piece a student is already comfortable with!

It helps reinforce key signatures by applying it directly to a piece of music, allowing students to hear and understand how the notes work together – not just read them on the page 🎶

It’s also a GREAT way to spark creativity, leading to improvisation and composition ✨

Hello and welcome to my page! I am Lydia and I am a classical pianist, singer-songwriter and music educator. I love performing different instruments and genres of music and I have a passion for teaching piano and lifelong musical skills.

I recently graduated from the University of Toronto in the Master's of Music: Piano Performance and Pedagogy program (I know, it's a mouthful)!

I am currently taking in students for Fall 2023 - message or email me if you are interested. I would love to hear from you!
