Why does it feel like the harder you practice, the less progress you make?

In this video, I share the 3 science-backed practice shifts that completely changed the way I approach the piano. These aren’t tricks or shortcuts — they’re research-based strategies that help you learn faster, retain more, and actually enjoy your practice sessions.

👉 Whether you’re a beginner or have been at the piano for years, these shifts will help you:

— Stop repeating the same mistakes
— Build confidence with every session
— Make more progress in less time

What You’ll Learn in This Video:

— Why rest is as important as practice — and how to use sleep and even naps to double your retention.
— How adding expression from day one transforms learning and keeps you motivated.
— The 70% success rule and why smart challenge + planning is the key to steady progress.
