Do you wish your piano practice felt more playful?
Do you want to simply sit down and play, without needing sheet music?

Many pianists feel stuck reproducing what’s written on the page.
If you’re longing to express something of your own but don’t know where to begin, this self-paced course is for you.
You’ll learn a simple and expressive way to play Greensleeves — while also understanding how to make it your own. 

Greensleeves brings a flowing melody, gentle rhythm and melancholic harmony, giving you a different set of possibilities to explore — including the expressive pull of the leading tone.

Three courses, three musical worlds

The Creative Practice courses are not a sequence — you don't need to take them in order.

Each course uses a different piece as a creative playground, offering a different musical character and its own creative challenges.The same six-step approach gives you a familiar path into improvisation, while the music invites you to explore something new each time.  

Choose the piece that speaks to you, and begin there.

What you’ll learn:

In this course, you’ll learn how to breathe your own perspective into the folk classic 'Greensleeves.' Using its gentle, swaying rhythm and melancholic atmosphere, I’ll guide you to use this lovely melody as a gateway to your own expressive piano improvisation. We will proceed slowly and surely—step by step.

We won’t focus on theory or fast fingers.
Instead, you’ll learn a simple, intuitive “recipe” of 6 steps that unlocks your creative voice.

Through improvising you will discover: 

The Power of Limitation

Why starting with just three notes can open the door to true musical freedom.

Motif Building

How to create a small “musical seed” that brings structure, coherence, and meaning to your playing.

The  Leading Tone

How and where to use the leading tone to add emotional tension.

The Flow State

A gentle, guided approach to quieting the mind and truly listening to the sounds you create.

Each of the six steps includes two videos and a PDF, so you can see and hear an idea before exploring it at the piano.
Take your time with each step, and return to it whenever you wish.
A backing track and optional left-hand variations let you practise the material with different accompaniment patterns.

Who this is for

This course is designed for players with at least two years of piano experience who feel comfortable with basic hand coordination and reading notation.

  If you are earlier in your journey or still find hand coordination challenging, you are welcome to choose the course option with 1:1 sessions. We can go through the steps together and adjust the exercises to your current technique.
