Testimonials
"I'm 34 and I've been playing since I was 6. I've tried for years to break into jazz unsuccessfully, but I really feel through watching your lessons, last week I have took a huge leap forward. Thanks to your great site I now 'get it'! The biggest breakthrough for me is improvisation technique theory you explain so well - Chord tones on strong beats, approach patterns etc... I feel I have opened the door to jazz playing and understanding what it's all about and I can't wait for the next buskers night that I run in my local pub to give the great sax players a run for thier money! Many thanks for this great resource" -Paul
