On another video she had a different hand independence exercise. After I mastered it, it was truly a break-through milestone in my playing. I improved much faster and my brain rewired itself to allow me to do things I didn't think I could do.

[@ICOD73]

what was that?

[@georgeogbuma1472]

Sorry for asking but how long have you been playing

[@princereuel108]

Same bruh

[@d4r4gorn]

So which video was that?

[@tsmith235]

Was that the video where your hands are going at different speeds only five notes? Because that was a challenge it took me two days and then one day to go the other way

[@danieles6684]

You're a great teacher. Thanks for making these videos! I find it odd how many teachers don't understand the value of small, clear, targeted, tangible examples and exercises. Thank you for existing.

[@PabloVazquez-li8tp]

Thank you so much, youre an amazing teacher, and also thank you so much to all the people behind these videos. You all make an amazing and super useful job!!

[@AyeAye-mw1wj]

I am level four right now. I practice every day like this.This lesson is for me very helpful. Thank you so much. I love you.

[@steves6018]

Long time guitar player just picked up piano. These exercises have really helped me with developing hand independence! I've finished day 2 and will be moving to day 3 soon. One thing I do to help develop my brain and fluidity is play the lesson as shown until I have it down pat. Then I start moving my right hand up an octave, then back down, then to another octave. It keeps the brain working and not getting use to just one position. Thanks for doing these!

[@joseph.r1122]

Very helpful exercises. Thank you, Lisa!

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

I watched this 3 months ago, and it helped a lot. Now I've decided to really add to my basic technique and I'm reviewing this since repetition is a must. Now I'm going to practice this around the circle of fourths.

[@liwang9604]

Exactly! Best Piano Teacher Ever!

[@loredana824]

You are an amazing teacher, I just love your way of teaching ❤️

[@senisyurgamusic8056]

Always looking & sounding impeccable 💜 looking no further for my online piano tutor~ thank you for what you do Lisa

[@saseeley]

This is exactly what I needed! Will be following for more!

[@jennyjohnson7846]

Amazing I so needed this.

[@doremonnobita124]

Thanks a lot for this free piano lesson again!!!!

[@sheenhart]

6yrs of sax paid off thankfully, have always been intimidated / impressed by piano hand independence. This was the one and only video I needed to master it. My favorite own twist was to alternate between each measure instead of a cycle. Gonna try staccato/legato etc next

[@mrprogresseze]

Such an amazing teacher 🎉

[@user-dc8hs1er7y]

Love love love the video lessons!!!,! I have been play for a little more than a month and have been advancing rapidly due to your great practice drills and lessons

[@thorified7904]

I am wanting to start piano and your approach/personality is SOOOO helpful

[@csgulyas]

This, right here, is where most beginner (and re-starters) abandon ship. Hand independence, in my opinion is the biggest hurdle for learning the piano. Thank you for yet another great video on the subject. Day 1, here I go.

[@yaoigirllife]

I just want to say thank you so much. Im just starting learning piano and know nothing about it. These videos are really helpful and follow able.

[@vannahbrammell8771]

Hi! I love your videos. You’ve taught me so much! My brain definitely had to work extra hard on day 3. I can tell that I’m growing as a musician from these exercises, thanks again!

[@blekingigamleby]

Thank you for another great lesson.

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

Merci beaucoup. I did take one week to do this, but it felt great to say I did it. And then I added another layer of complexity. I did the piano pattern in the right hand, and added trombone playing in the left hand. The first day I learned to really tie my shoes better.

[@gio_gi]

Great video & exercise Thank you so much Lisa 🙏

[@sanjaydbhandari8722]

Your teaching style is very special and you are very kind teacher.

[@TheCheermeister]

I love/ hate these hand independence exercises Lisa. Thank you so much for making them. Working on one of your earlier hand independence lessons, but this one is next up. It is amazing how time away helps mastery as much as hard practice does. Those piano sleep fairies really do go to work when our heads hit the pillow! Another great lesson!!

[@Life-is-a-Dance]

I'm the same, glad to know I'm not alone 😅

[@petersimms8290]

Great exercise, Thank you for this. I found it difficult to start with but when the hands switched roles, i didnt even have to thing about it. It was simple & came immediately.

[@gdourayamene3667]

I really needed this video 💖🎹💖 thank you ( btw your hair looks great 👍)

[@JR-ot4im]

Okay. I'm here and on Day One of this round of exercises. Reminding myself how the previous hand independence exercises (5 note scales together, one hand quarter notes and other hand eighth notes) that first day felt impossible and yet it really did just take a matter of 10 minutes a day and a month later, I could do them with my eyes closed or while listening to another lesson. I don't see being able to get through this in five days, but I know that I'll get there! And counting the beats really helps! I both love these exercises but I also hate them--until it finally clicks in and that little accomplishment feels so good!

[@andrewpassey1769]

A really valuable lesson, thank you very much 🌻🌹

[@AyeAye-mw1wj]

I love that because hand together challenged . I will practice so interesting.

[@kirkwilliams4942]

She is the MOST enjoyable piano teacher by far:-)

[@shelbyrn9708]

Very helpful lesson, feels like you have lifted me up from a plateau 🤗

[@agatpiano6600]

Great lesson, thank You ❤

[@tfmarketing12]

Simple, but powerful. One of the best piano lessons I've seen on the internet. Thank you for this.

[@PianoteOfficial]

wow thanks a lot!!

[@maestro2033]

Great job really appreciate it thank you 🙏🏾

[@Jezsica..]

Such a great teacher. I hope you can teach me face to face... Anyway, Ive learned a lot from you. It helps me to improve my skills in playing piano. I keep watching your videos and repeat it. 👏👏😊😊😊

[@tctc6662]

Thank you very much, I'll start practicing day by day

[@adventures1851]

Thank you! This video has really helped me 🎉.

[@calebalexander2359]

Great lesson keep up the good work

[@ApaX1981]

Me: switch pattern this round. My brain: nono, we will switch next round.

[@icic6936]

😂

[@cynthialecraw2702]

She is the one, the only, 🥰PIANO QUEEN😉!!!!❤️

[@tiihore]

Great video! I was really intimidated by Day 4 as it was the hardest and the clip is so short which makes it seem like it should be easy haha. However, I just broke it down step by step and then went back to basics to practice it and eventually got it. Practice left slow, practice right hand slow then bring it together. When playing together I had to take notice of which notes to play together from both hands otherwise I got very confused. Realising each strike of the right hand aligned up with the 1st, 3rd and 5th finger presses of the left hand was very key. Still sounds a little awkward sometimes, but definitely made a big improvement in a short time! Now just daily practice of the last one till it works! Thank you!

[@bettyennin6335]

Nice one! Enjoying this, Lisa. 1 through 4 are not as difficult as I thought would be 😄.

[@artbagreality5145]

Oh she's back again. The best piano teacher ever ❤

[@PHILCOLLINSism]

This is the second video I’ve seen and can confirm she is the best piano teacher ever. I’m so excited to start this exercise!

[@sukhithamadhavi3376]

I LOVE your channel ❤ It's the only channel which helps me in the piano ❤ Love Lisa! The BEST teacher on KZbin!!! 🎹

[@user-so2cd7ge2l]

Thanks for the independence lessons I wàs working on Rosemary's Song , from The Giver , and there is a part where the left hand goes from arpeggios, to a waltz rhythm, with the right hand playing a fairly complex melody I had to skip it , but I will do these lessons , and try again .

[@naimahahmad5920]

😍wow!

[@AyeAye-mw1wj]

Wow it was amazing !

[@Sully365]

Ok..i can't say i mastered this... but it took 5 days to be really comfy and switching the patterns on the fly. this is awesome. day one was...not good...day two was 'oooo' day 3 was 'yay' day 4 was. "i think i got it" and day 5 was...nice. nice. now just have to pick up more useful patterns. Thank you so much for this!!!

[@stevevacca6392]

It’s been really helpful.

[@manfreddawg]

You're the greatest i swear r

[@sindollface]

You do a WONDERFUL job teaching. I’m going to do this! I know 1 of my issues is, I don’t practice until it’s I can TRULY play it without thinking. That has to be why I forget every song or anything I learned! No more skipping forward!!

[@unclemick-synths]

I started rotating old songs for warm-up. It stops me forgetting them so easily.

[@phannguyen723]

@1:51 yeah, I agree with what you said . My hands really don't want to remember the pattern at the time, but when I come back the next day, it suddenly becomes easier. For me, practicing an hour everyday before going to bed is the most effective method.

[@unclemick-synths]

An excellent exercise. Good video 👍

[@lambphiiip]

I so agree...I was working on a difficult part of a piece I just couldnt get right...next day played it straight off wondering why I couldnt do it the day before..weird or what !

[@graemeandannmorton9781]

you are really good I an slow but getting there cheers

[@nickdemooij]

I have the same at what you say in 2:00! When i want to learn a song and it's not going so well, when i then go to sleep or maybe just don't play the piano anymore for a few hours then it goes well for some reason😂!

[@nareshmekala6252]

Great

[@caitnaicker2530]

One day I want to be like you 😇to have a studio of my own !!!

[@TheErickll]

Such a energetic, didatic teacher. Keep on the good word! Gonna try this and in 5-7 days will be back to say if worked

[@PianoteOfficial]

Please do! We'd love to hear if its working for you 😃

[@Ankita-pq4up]

@@PianoteOfficial I'm loving this method of learning. I've completed 4 days and I can really see the difference. It was challenging but worth it. Thank you Lisa 😊 💓

[@vikeykumar9406]

I have already subscribed your channel your piano exercises are awsome...I am playing them on my keyboard of casio

[@trenton8998]

Wya, dawg? Don't leave us hanging! 👀

[@TheErickll]

@@trenton8998 Ive made the exercises for 10 days, and really helped. I've tested on both a piece that i already know and one i've learned.

[@saleemkhan6208]

You good teaching piano

[@shrikantdbhat]

This is something that will work for me. I just know it :)

[@sukhithamadhavi3376]

I got it!!! It worked!!! ✨🎉🥳 No boasting or anything but I got the day 5 thing right on my second go!!! I did it exactly on those 5 days and it worked!!! Maybe cause I've been playing the piano for 5 years now..😏

[@OneStepToday]

You need to have dedicated playlist for every topic or section like other channels, it will be great to find all the basic exercises and hand independence in a playlist which is shown in the video suggestion itself. Link the videos to the playlists.

[@joannekucerak405]

I love all of your videos, Lisa! They are incredibly helpful! :)

[@CodeJeffo]

There's scientific valid explanation about the relation between learning & sleep and long term memory. And I love this 5 days approach, just wonderful LIsa as always !

[@brucebradsher9882]

Thank you so much for these lessons! I am just starting on the piano. Your enthusiasm and teaching style are inspiring to say the least.

[@JaiSequoia]

What a great exercise! Could we have this as a download please?

[@charmainebuskas4993]

Can you do a video on how to play one hand loud and one hand soft?

[@harpapmac]

Wow when you changed the hands from right to left at day 5 i felt the blackout that i would have for where to put my fingers hahaha

[@robertpien8708]

Being a drummer and a piano player this stuff is crucial to be about to improvise and play freely what to play . This is a great way to start hand Independence that can lead to complete freedom. GREAT LESSON TY .

[@theghostofsw6276]

Drummer as well....hoping hand independence on the piano will lead me to playing "open" (ambidexterity) like Simon Phillips.

[@danielebenezer2792]

Very useful

[@ted2136]

Great vid!where do you get the sheet music for some of these? Tks

[@Lance514]

I was able to play and accomplish this almost instantaneously during the duration of this video. I’ve never played piano before. Is that a good sign that I’m made for this instrument?

[@lizat1664]

Lisa, this looks too challenging for me. Can't wait to try it!😂 I swear I get so excited trying to play "harder" pieces than what I should be practicing such as Mary had a little lamb. I'm sure I'm not the only one?!

[@dlove9034]

Wow, I just know this is going to be difficult

[@nighthawks4963]

You make it sound so easy. Thank you. And the way you teach is great 👍
