Hand independence is my biggest challenge, especially when there are different rhythms on the left and right hand. My hands just want to follow each other!

[harisingh]

Great first lesson. I am 71 and started learning to play the keyboard to keep my brain and fingers active. Hope to lean a song before my 72nd which is next month. I can't wait to show off!

[joannpelas]

OMG! THiS HELPED!🎉 I'm 54 years old and I'm learning the piano!

[ishanimishra]

i am 11 years old and got inspired by your video and i watched your channel first time !

[colingray]

I'm 68 and a guitarist. However, I have enjoyed so much of the simplicity in learning piano/keyboards. Thanks for your excellent and most informative lessons.

Kaitlyn, what amazes me most about your video's, is how well you understand beginner struggles. And it's not only the times when you say "don't freak out", it's also your perfect conclusion of the different finger switches in C major scale etc. I quit piano lessons in my youth because of too much pressure. Yes I quit because I couldn't play "pianissimo" up to "mezzo forte" enough in a certain piece of music, to satisfy my teacher. That was beginning of grade 2. I'm beginning to realize more and more that I missed a lot of basic skills and understanding then. I am definitely going to make time for your training ❤

I'm an average guitarist and at 68 am starting to learn piano, this so helpful

Thanks for this video.
Playing with both hands is really a difficult task to learn😊

[ByTheSpirit]

I am so happy I found your channel. Thank you for doing what you do! ❤❤

YOUR FICUS IN THE BACKGROUND IS BEAUTIFUL 💚

[gladysburgos]

Combining different keys in both sides. Like multi tasking on both hands. 😮

[MarbleWinner]

i will be honest, if i put all my time on typing on the keyboard onto piano, i would've been Beethoven by now

[nutella_drifter]

These exercises are great and they make my brain hurt, lol. Like some commenters before me, I am also a guitarist which makes my left fretting hand actually better with notes than the right one. Your lessons will surely help me synchronize my hands and build the independence I need to play the piano smoothly and accurately.

I just watched this video. I found it very helpful. After reading some of the comments an issue i see is we as older adults and some of us musicians .is we are very engrained in our mind sets. Learning piano is a wonderful way to learn and keep our minds alert. Having played other instruments we have habits we may not recognized and slowing down to learn piano is challenging to say the least. Be gentle with yourselves be patient. SLOW DOWN. If you were to teach a student what would you say to that individual. Take your own advice.

[veronicavargas]

thank you i just found your channel today and istart learning to use now my left hand

GLAD TO SEE THIS UPRISING PIANO CHANNEL FOR BEGINNERS! 😍

Hi Kaitlyn, thank you for this helpful video. You're the best teacher I've come upon❣

Hi Kaitlyn,

thank you for another great and helpful video on practicing the piano.

As much as I am (still) a near total beginner (I have started some time in February this year), I am also quite confident and solid doing different basics already. But I struggle most with the left hand, when I change the play on the right hand - i.e. during changing chords, switching between root and inversions, varying rhythms, playing arpeggios … Each time I change even a minor detail on the right hand I get really confused with the left hand.

I assume that this is a matter of repetition, resilience and rehearsel again and again. Therefore I have no high hopes solving this problem sooner than later. Currently I have changed my left hand practicing by limiting it to single notes and maybe fifth; doing so I have less trouble while practicing with the right hand and doing so also varying it as described above.

The five tipps you have mentioned will help me get along very well. Thank you again.

[natashaevans]

Nice lesson. I'm still struggling to play both hands together. 😅 I love playing the keyboard, yet it is tricky. Teaching myself songs with tutorials.
