Dynamic Swap: Transform Your Scales Practice

In this session, we’re diving into A-Flat Major. One highlight is the Volume Swap exercise, a powerful tool to improve control and dynamics in your playing. We’ll also explore parallel and contrary motion, 10ths, and sixths, along with exercises for wrist rotation, arpeggios, and more.
