Music Soothes the Martial Artist: Simply Music
May 23rd, 2006
Jordan, started taking Piano Lessons in January, 2006. He is taking lessons through a teacher (Susan Montross at www.pianosuccess4u.com) using the “Simply Music” method. In similarity of youngsters learning to talk before they read, this method teaches the students to play before they read music.
Jordan has always seemed to have music humming through his head, and with this program he is able to get some of that music out in a soothing fashion. He recently had a piano recital with other students in Walla Walla, at the Park Plaza Retirement facility. They have a nice piano and were gracious enough to allow the recital to take place and entertain the residents.
With the program they encourage the student to practice previous songs that were learned so they they don’t forget them and the songs tend to build upon others.
