Course Description

In this course, you will get thorough training from the ground up with regards to rhythm and timing. We will focus some simple "tapping" exercises to establish your sense of rhythm, which will have a slightly faster speed than the beginners course. I will also add tapping and playing exercises with 16th notes, which will gear you up for the rhythm exercises in the next early intermediate course.

Piano Instructor

Ayana Webb

I graduated from Rutgers University, with a B.A.S. in Music. I’ve played piano for about 17 years, and have taught for almost six years now, having taught well over 50 in-person students during my career. Outside of piano, I was also involved in some notable vocal projects, such as Jill Scott’s album “Light of the Sun”, in which I’ve been credited for background vocals. I do not teach vocal lessons at the moment.
