Millions of people around the world want to learn piano. So why can it seem so hard? There are apps, or Youtube videos out there, but they never advance a student beyond a very basic level. They lack teaching the student the fundamentals of music. This leaves the student stuck in a confusion, hoping to memorize his way to success–but it doesn’t work.
Others have tried piano teachers, only to become frustrated and left with a piano covered in stickers–but still no ability to PLAY. The missing ingredient is an understanding of what music is, and the essential elements of playing piano. With this understanding playing piano becomes fluid and free. In fact it becomes fun and easy, and one can even play by ear and begin playing hundreds of new songs in a matter of months.
The Ridley Method removes all of the stops to achieving full understanding of music and piano. In fact complexity is the illusion of doing many complicated things at once. When a student master's simple things, and learns to do them in sequence, the illusion of complexity results.
