Pop Piano for Beginners - The Ultimate Guided Practice Routine to Unlock Creativity and Expression!

This beginner piano / keyboard tutorial in C Major, guides you gradually through 34 steps to learn to play contemporary pop piano. It covers: rhythm, hand independence, syncopation, arpeggios, chord progressions, inversions, extensions, sus chords, relative minor harmony and how to create melodies from ear. It aims to give you a deeper understanding of music so you can freely express yourself on the piano. The beat never stops so you can always play along in the groove!

The aim for this exercise is to work towards effortless mastery throughout the exercises. If it’s too challenging or too easy, please feel free to alter the exercise as you need to. I recommend you consider technique throughout and ensure you are aiming for a feeling of relaxation in your hands. Be careful not to over-practice if you are feeling tension at any point and seek further advice if you are unsure about hand position.
