If my piano teacher had taught me this in 1972 instead of the same old boring "etudes" and classical songs, I would probably still be playing piano today. Here I am today, *finally* learning what I always wanted as a kid, but didn't know how to ask for.

[@flushot6513]

Think alot of old band teachers are stick in the mud kinda like back to future guess you weren't ready for that but your kids are gonna love it they wanted you play their way my band teacher never liked what I did on drums

[@terrybrown106]

So true. But when I got old enough to pay for my own lessons, I went on a manhunt finding a piano teacher that plays modern western music. I too, was raised mostly on classical music and some contemporary pop music. But I got aggressive and actually started learning a lot of rock, country, and boogie woogie on my own with help from my teachers. All the teachers I had, instead of them teaching me, I actually ended up teaching my teachers because I progressed so quickly.

[@f0p21]

Thanks for sharing man. My son was on the verge of quitting piano. He was enrolled in classical lessons and was doing the etudes and classical songs and I could tell he wasn’t enjoying it anymore. I canceled his classes and He started picking up swing on his own six months ago and he’s been playing his best piano. I can tell he’s actually enjoying it and having fun too. I hope you have fun on your journey as well. Cheers!

[@234takashi]

Unfortunately, all many teachers know is classical music. I’m a piano teacher and I’m learning styles like this now for my students. But I’m not very proficient myself so it’s challenging to teach. Most teachers just teach what they where taught.

[@aga1nst]

I'm thinking the same - I now learn piano as an old guy and it's going quite easy and fun. And the only reason is because I only play songs I like. I imagine what it must be for a little kid - I guess they play mostly classical pieces, Chopin etudes, etc... which for a kid must be a pure torture. Like training a bear to dance.

[@erichcollar9810]

Awesome. I just impressed a room full of friends playing this riff on the piano I got for Christmas. cheers!

[@christineclark3686]

Love this lesson and love Boogie Wookiee. I started learning to play piano during first lockdown and loving it. This lesson on boogie woogie is brilliant thank you so much. I feel like I am really playing the piano (ps I’m 70) 🎹🎹🎼🎼..

[@Creativepianoacademy]

Amazing Christine! Glad to help.

[@eccomercementoreeryan2264]

Your rich

[@stevemooney1908]

Finally someone with a fantastic teaching technique who guides you to learn at your own pace. I have been playing piano for over 40 years and realise I tried to do too much too soon and got nowhere with Boogie Woogie. I am looking forward to going back to the basics and learning, with your help how to do it properly. Lastly, thank you for not introducing yourself shouting "Hey Dudes, whats happening?"

[@dean3434]

Me too and I fully agree with you!

[@DIGtotheIT]

I like the last one. Never played boogie woogie before but the future is within my grasp

Wow best lessons ive seen for piano...the visual is great for non music readers...jam on.!!!

[@Matt_Commodore]

Haha thank you so much. Two weeks ago I didn’t know what the chords were, now I can play boogie woogie… brilliant

[@mick947]

I’m 64 and I’ve had very few teachers in my life who can actually teach, or are interested in teaching, anything! You are a rarity, someone who can actually teach!! Thank you.

You've saved my life! I need to pass myself off as a boogie woogie player for a production of Stepping Out and this tutorial has just saved me! Thanks loads!

[@maryannrecht7605]

Loved my 3 Simple Steps BW lesson. Thanks.

[@naturalobserver]

Just perfect presentation with both the separate lit keyboard above your hands PLUS the written music in the upper right corner! Made it stress-free to follow. Subscribed!

[@johnbisbikis]

Very clear. Very good. Give us more boogie woogie and rock and roll lessons. Thank you👍

[@Creativepianoacademy]

Thanks! Will do!

[@billmiller3425]

GET ON WITH IT!!!!!

[@msgingerjourney]

Thank you for this! When I was first able to keep the left hand going and move the right hand around I was thrilled. Step by step. It's coming together.

[@matthewotremba9230]

I like your method of teaching and video visuals Thanx for showing , something any can digest

[@rons6060]

Thank you for this! It would be great if you could talk about what chords and chord combinations makes boogie woogie. Like in the example you played, I can tell you went from C, F (C6) on left, C minor or D# with your first right hand. I’m sorry if you already made a video about this. Thanks again, you’re good!

[@jeffsplawn9399]

Now I can play and have fun. In between ode to joy an the cancan of course.

[@scotchandrew]

very cool

[@daihititus]

excellent. thank you. I love the way you've explained bringing the hands together

[@rickymeadows5176]

AWESOME ! I am 63 & wish so much KZbin & teachers like yourself would've been around when I was a boy ! I don't play but always wish I had ! The late Jerry Lee Lewis was one of my favorite artist growing up ! Even though I can't play, loved watching & listening . Thanks !

[@oldunclemick]

Cool. First steps towards Jerry Lee Lewis! 👍

I've been trying to learn the boogie woogie, and keep finding myself coming back to your channel for the assistance. Thanks for the videos!!

[@dougfelsenthal]

This was great - now I'm a bit different - I'm an accordion player trying to do boogie woogie. I was having difficulty putting together a right hand and this was just the thing. Thanks much for the effort.

[@1337million]

It's been a decade since I last played the piano regularly and this is such a nice and straightforward introduction to boogie woogie! Been sitting for half an hour just working on hand independence with this

[@margaretbaker9259]

I have just discovered you!!! What a fantastic teaching method! I’m very excited. Play on!!

[@MusicManiacJim]

A great player and a great teacher too. If only I had some talent and ability to do the things you make look ridiculously easy! Many thanks for this.

[@Creativepianoacademy]

You can do it Jim. Might take some time, but stick with it. Its very rewarding! Thx or the kind words!

[@kevingodding9316]

Hello Jim😊👍

[@jeffsplawn9399]

This is a killer lesson. I all the sudden want to play a lot. I got skills in 3 minutes that I needed for the last 6 months.

[@davidmg1925]

Yeah thisis a good leson. Ive just been given a key board and im coming back to this after a zillion years. This lessons sounds good an dgets the juices flowing again. I'll be working wi this lesson for a bit. Im not surprised at 4.9K likes. (If only this existed 55 years ago.....)

[@criddycriddy]

What a really interesting way of learning, love your channel pal ... rock on 🤘

[@robertYTB78g]

This is such a great lesson, thank you heaps. I tried Boogie Woogie from KZbin 3 1/2 years ago, when the best boogie beginner lessons I could find all started me shifting the position of the left hand right away C, F, G, and tried me learning a riff with the right hand that wasn't anywhere near as "in synch" with the left hand rhythm as this. Unlike this lesson (which I can play) it was all impossible then, despite much effort and repeated attempts over the years. I think your path to gradually increasing the right hand complexity is so helpful and pragmatic, and it shows what a good teacher you are.

[@Jessica-Gaming]

You're very good at teaching. I can play this now thank you

[@CFACombatives]

just starting the journey and VERY MUCH appreciate you and your postings - many thanks mate!

[@StevenLilley]

Good pace, well explained - makes me feel like I might have chance to actually achieve something 🙂

[@robkunkel8833]

Hey Joseph … Well you are the official Boogie Woogie representative in the Torah Room overlooking St. Thomas Harbor in the Virgin Islands. Our “new” piano is a 1949 Acrosonic (Balwin), harmonically great for a Professor Longhair style of “barrel house” boogie woogie. Warehouse grade, fireproof brick walls, 50’ square many French door open to harbor and other warehouses and ships below. I’m a woodwind player struggling with a painful back but I will have something for our next gathering, this Friday. Thanks much … see you on my next tune. Subscribed. 🍷 L'Chaim

[@smcad2000]

For those looking for more info on the "pull back" technique it's also called a "grace note"

[@trefordavies3670]

I have just finished day 5 of your boogie woogie course , great teaching style . I spent an hour or so a day and nailed the riff with both hands across the progression . Loving this , very grateful for the course . Not played a piano so getting the fingers relaxed etc is the most difficult thing . Thank you so much . Trefor

[@samdan118]

You are so great!! Thank you for taking your time to teach others and share your knowledge. Be blessed!!! How can I get the notes for the pieces you play? Thank you!

[@SongsbyCharleneApril]

Beginner here…. Was going to quit giving this a try because I couldn’t get the coordination/timing. I slowed it WAY down (rockin’ it at turtle speed). I am able to do it. With lots of practice should be at normal/acceptable speed in a couple days. Thank you!

[@barrymarshall7943]

Thank you. Very good lesson.

I just love B W but have never had the courage to take that first step. This lesson is simplicity on wheels, you really explain and demonstrate so well. There is nothing to hold me back now, more of the same please, thank you so much.

[@johnrose8806]

Great little lesson mate

[@marcd1981]

Thank you for the lesson! This is the second video of yours I've watched, I really like the way you explain the chords and there progressions. I am a guitar player that wants to add piano / keyboard to the mix, and in this video is the first time I ever heard the term power chord used for describing playing the piano, that was a very interesting bit of knowledge to pick up.

[@barrythird3297]

It sounded Awesome
