    If you don’t have much to play in the way of solos at the moment, it’s ok to skip the video-making part. The idea is to have a clearer idea of what tends to happen with your skills under a little bit of pressure. But you can do this by thinking back to past performance-type situations in the last few months to a year as well.

    I’d be more inclined to have you move forward with taking the PSI, and getting started with the course. I suspect you probably have a pretty good sense of what happens and how things feel in performance situations already.

There's an LIVE component too! (for educators)

If you’d like to explore some of the most essential skills and techniques in the course live, with a cohort of curious, thoughtful, supportive, and like-minded educators (and a few mildly irreverent or benevolently sarcastic folks mixed in to make sure we don’t get too serious), that’s also an option!

Starting Thursday, February 3rd, we’ll meet via Zoom once a week, and go through selected strategies related to effective practice, managing nerves, and achieving flow states under pressure. We’ll do some in-class playing experiments (don’t worry – you’ll be muted!), short weekly homework assignments, and small-group breakout sessions to help you integrate these new skills into your teaching.

This 6-week live course is normally $199, but is available at 50% off the regular cost when bundled with Beyond Practicing. For more details about the live course (and dates) CLICK HERE.
