Welcome!

😩 Tired of watching endless tutorials... but still not sounding like a real jazz pianist?

What This Course Does

Jazz Piano Fundamentals gives you the foundation every serious jazz pianist needs — without the overwhelm.


Instead of random tips or shortcuts, you’ll get a guided path that builds your skills in the right order:

  • Harmony — truly understand chords, inversions, chord progressions and how jazz songs are put together.

  • Timing & Feel — learn how to play in time by using backing tracks.

  • Improvisation — learn the foundational material for creating meaningful solos

  • Application — connect theory to tunes, progressions, and real music.

This is not just information. It’s a transformation.

Course Overview

Here’s what you’ll master inside Jazz Piano Fundamentals — each module builds naturally on the last so you never feel lost or overwhelmed.

Module 1: Jazz Piano Foundations

Lay the groundwork for your jazz journey. You’ll understand how this course works, what to focus on, and how to make steady progress without confusion.

Module 2: Building Chords

Learn to think in harmony!
You’ll build every core jazz chord type and train your hands and ears to recognize them instantly:

  • Major 7th, Dominant 7th, Minor 7th, and Half-Diminished (m7♭5) chords

  • Chords I–VII in a key

  • Left-hand shell voicings that form the backbone of jazz piano

Module 3: Essential Progressions

Discover how chords move — and why that movement creates the sound of jazz.
You’ll explore the essential progressions that appear in nearly every tune:

  • Major and Minor II–V–I

  • Turnarounds (I–VI–II–V)

  • Secondary dominants and extended turnarounds

  • Backdoor ii–V progressions

Module 4: Inversions & Voice Leading

Smooth out your chord transitions and make your playing sound instantly more professional.
You’ll learn how to use inversions for minimal movement and melodic flow between chords.

Module 5: Advanced Harmony & Colour

Add richness, sophistication, and that jazz flavour.
You’ll learn to use colour chords the way real jazz players do:

  • Diminished chords

  • ♭III diminished as a passing chord

  • Major and Minor 6th chords (as beautiful alternatives to 7ths)

Module 6: Tunes & Practical Application

Bring it all together with timeless standards such as:

  • Autumn Leaves

  • Fly Me to the Moon

  • I’m in the Mood for Love

  • It Could Happen to You

  • There Will Never Be Another You

  • I Should Care

You’ll connect harmony, rhythm, and improvisation to real music — so you can finally sound like you understand jazz, not just imitate it.
