The silence of retirement was deafening

"After 40 years of working, I thought I’d enjoy doing nothing. But after the first month, the novelty wore off.

I felt sluggish. I worried about my memory slipping. I tried crossword puzzles and brain games to stay sharp, but they felt like chores, not hobbies. I wanted to create something, not just kill time.

I had always loved the idea of playing piano, but I hesitated. I thought I was too old, that my fingers were too stiff, and that you simply 'can't teach an old dog new tricks.'"

The turning point: A method that makes sense to an adult mind.

"Then I stumbled upon a program designed completely differently. It doesn't treat you like a child having to learn nursery rhymes.

It uses a logical system based on Chords and Rhythms that clicked instantly with my brain. It wasn't about mindlessly memorizing dots on a page; it was about understanding the structure of music, almost like unlocking a code.

Suddenly, I wasn't just struggling through boring drills; I was exercising my brain in the most beautiful way possible—and playing recognizable music within my very first week."

Why Mark’s Experience is Backed by Science (And Why You Can Do It Too)

• Cognitive Sharpness: Learning piano engages both hemispheres of the brain, creating new neural pathways. It’s the ultimate "brain fitness" that goes far beyond simple puzzles.

• Emotional Fulfillment: Music fills the "deafening silence" of retirement, providing a creative purpose and a way to connect with grandchildren and friends.

• Logical Learning: This method respects the adult mind. By focusing on Chords and Rhythms, you skip the "nursery rhymes" and jump straight into music that makes sense to you.

Proof that Age is Just a Number

"Now, my mornings have a true purpose. My doctor says learning an instrument is the best workout for the brain, but for me, it’s simply about the joy.

Last week, I played 'Let It Be' for my grandkids, and the look of surprise on their faces was priceless. I proved to myself that I can still grow, learn, and create beautiful things. I’m not just a 'retiree' anymore; I’m a musician."

It’s never too late to start. See the best piano learning practical method designed for active adults.

I’m amazed! Once you get the rhythms down, you really can sound like a pro! Great fun! Thanks for making this available at such a reasonable price. Anyone who doesn’t grab this up is going to go the long way home!
Joy!

This course is exactly what I have been looking for with all the shortcuts that have been such a mystery to me for years. Well done Robin an excellent product. Kind regards. Paul”

Paul Saxon , UK

It is simple, straight forward yet very effective. It makes the complex understandable and for those of us who don’t want to master music theory, it gets us playing quite well in a short time. I can’t say enough good about your program. Thanks again and keep up the good work!
Ed Doran, Muskogee, OK

Hey Robin, Just wanted to say thanks for this course. This is a great way to get up and running fast for song writing on the piano. I feel like I owe you more money.
Mike, Nashville Tennessee

Enjoying the piano like Ive never – bless you for your insight into teaching – it works!! Please accept my highest respect for possibly the best tutorial of all time – I am 74 and have seen a few. You have made me a happy slave to my keyboard and sound!

Derek, Thornton Cleveleys, Lancashire, England, UK

I’ve finally managed to play after a year of slogging away trying to learn to read music. I have literally tried everything I found online to learn and I was considering giving the piano away to a friend when fortunately I found your lessons. Thanks a lot! Cheers

I’ve picked up more in the short time I’ve had your course (I’m up to Ballad Style) than with the all the other methods I’ve tried. Thanks so much for the most logically arranged, easiest to follow, and best ‘bang for the buck’ piano course I’ve seen, and used. Sincerely,
Barry Polis, Georgia, USA

Your course seems to be what I’ve been looking for for quite a while. I seen a gazillion of them out there but nothing compares to the way you present piano lessons. Good luck with it.”

Since I was little I have always wanted to play. I’m now 38 years old, have never played, and with your program I was able to go through the books and videos step by step and now I’m purchasing piano books to play songs to enjoy. I have to say that my husband was very skeptical but you have made him a true believer in your teaching program!
Soony Williams, California, USA

Hi Robin, A belated note to say a very big thank you for putting together such an interesting, motivating, straightforward approach to piano playing! I absolutely love the techniques, I’m playing everything now and it’s so exciting!!! I’m still only on Book 1 and I’ve learned so much already, I can’t imagine what you have in store for us in the other books.
Jane Grey, London, UK

Thanks for everything. With two days of use I already feel like I’ve gotten my money’s worth out of your course. I think my other daughter, my wife and I are all anxious to learn too. If only we had another piano and possibly an additional computer to learn on
Dave Millette, Nevada, USA

Dear Robin, I just wanted to Thank You for the incredible program that you have put together. I must say that you over delivered on this one. I couldn’t believe it, and neither could my wife! Within an hour, I was making music. My whole family can’t believe I really learned all I have in less than 3 days! I will tell everyone I know, who’s ever thought about playing piano or keys that this is the real deal and I hope if you use this testimonial that all who read it will believe me.
Pastor JD Loveland, Santee, CA, USA

I have been inspired by your program. It feels like a musical renaissance for me. Thanks, Isobel

“Hi Robin, Never thought I would say this I thought I had tried every method when it came to not only learning to play the piano but understanding the method.I am truly amazed at the progress I have made in THREE DAYS !!!! Your style is so easy to follow and the video along with the sheet music and the audio, no one could ask for anything more.
David Morgan , London, E6, UK david244@idnet.com

Hi, I just wanted to say thank you for the fantastic Piano Tutor Books. I am nearing the end of the first book and can now confidently say this is the best tutor book I have ever come across.
Gary Cook, UK
Hi Robin, Your course is everything that you and others said it would be. The lessons are do-able and satisfying. Your videos and sound bites make everything quite clear. I didn’t think I could make the piano sound this good so quickly. I would highly recommend your course to anyone who wants to learn the piano. Thanks so much. You are making a dream come true.
Mike Epstein, Ramat Razi’el, Israel

Hi Robin, Recently bought your series and think it is incredible. My mother was a classically trained pianist and my father was a bar room “by ear” player and I always wanted to be sort of combination of them. Your set of books has made it all fun for me again. Could never be bothered by all the technical stuff, just wanted to sit and play. Piano For All is great. Thanks,
Andy Godfrey, NY, USA

Hi Robin, I recently purchased your product and I have to tell you: it’s absolutely wonderful!!! I’m still quite a beginner but I can follow your instructions and feel I improve daily! Though I have to admit I watch and listen to the videos thousands of times – but once it clicks in – it’s delightful. Thanks ever so much for your efforts of putting this whole set together, I’m really glad I’ve found you!

Eva Gegeny, Sheffield, South Yorkshire, UK

Robin, Thank you so much for this course. I have wanted to learn to play my favorite instrument as long as I can remember. Now that I’m an adult, I am so glad to not have to learn from the child books. Already being able to play popular songs just amazes me! I am having so much fun.
Thanks again,
Vivian Bell, Fairborn, Ohio, USA

Hi Robin, just a quick note, this is david from barnegat, new jersey i started your course about three months ago, i am on book 3 and still think the course is just great. books 1 and 2 were just the best, i really look foward to sitting down at the piano now, and just have fun the licks and songs you use are just what i am looking for. i am 59 years young and grew up with all those tunes. keep up the great work and i will stay in touch, thanks again, david.
David Petraccoro, Barnegat, New Jersey, USA

For anyone questioning whether they should purchase this course or take a more traditional method to learning the instrumentI can testify that they would be much better off with Piano For All. I have just completed my degree in Music at the local college. The knowledge I gained from your course is largely responsible for my having the highest marks in Music Theory I and II.
David, Alabama, USA

I no longer think, “this is beyond me and only musical geniuses who have had hundreds of years of lessons are capable of playing”. In other words, this course is very liberating, simple to grasp, laid out in an easy to follow format and gets you playing in NO TIME! Why piano is not explained in the manner that PFA teaches is completely beyond me! Thanks so much. Sincerely
Bob Bowen, Conway, Arkansas

Hey Robin we have spoke awhile back about your course..I started on book one and it is awesome.. I play acoustic guitar and sing but i am so excited to play piano now, and it so easy to create chord progressions with your method that the second day already im playing let it be progression…what is your suggestion should i just follow each page and dont move on till i master each page? Thanks..it was a blessing finding you, music is my life.
