How To Confidently Sit At Any Piano And Play Beautiful Music WITHOUT Feeling Embarrassed Or Relying On Sheet Music!
Even if you're a beginner OR you've been trying for years now but frustrated you still can't just sit, play and sound good
Watch The Video Below
"I'll get you sat down at the piano playing the beautiful music you know is inside you" - Josef Sykora, Creative Piano Academy
Watched The Video? Good. Meet James...
Take a listen to James. Sounds nice right? James uses Creative Piano Patterns to sit and play beautiful music, explore melodies and get creative even as a beginner.
Here's what he had to say...
Here's what he had to say...
"I am a relative beginner and joined Creative Piano Academy as an add on to my weekly lessons which while really important to get a foundation, I wanted to also be able to play some music that would sound nice reasonably quickly.
I was drawn to this pattern because...
1. I can play the pattern slowly and it still sounds great. I can pause to find an appropriate note which is really important for me as it gives me time to think while still sounding nice.
2. As long as I follow Josef’s principles I can play any notes I want. There isn’t a wrong note just notes that sound better.
3. It is the first piece I have played that the family who were in the room at the time doing something else said "wow that sounds great, you have really improved."
For me, I love this pattern because it’s one I can keep coming back to after I have done other stuff like learning a new song or practising chords etc. Or I want to grab 15 minutes and just create new melodies. I love the freedom of making up my own melodies and knowing what notes I can use and play with.
What I am learning from it are the principles of melody and how to create my own. The framework of this pattern lets me explore this. It's also a great finger exercise.
I realise it’s not perfect and I want to add more emotion and use the pedal more effectively but it’s a work in progress.
Thanks Josef"
James uses patterns 14 and 15 from the 'kick-Ass Series' to create and play his own music.
And thats just 2 out of 30 patterns inside the course. Watch the video below for a demonstration of more of the music YOU WILL be able to play if you follow the step by step instruction and put in the practice time...
If they look a little difficult... Don't panic! I show you multiple ways to play them depending on your ability level.
I guide you every step of the way... Details below!
WHAT DO OUR STUDENTS THINK?
"My family were impressed anyway"
"Packed full of beautiful melodic patterns"
"This course enticed me back to the piano multiple times a day"
"She couldn't believe it was me because it sounded SO GOOD!"
"You make us want to go there and play"
"Father: Well That Sounds Really Good To Me"
"I always thought beginner practice was so boring before I met Josef"
"I Like these floating (like a river) Argeggios"
"Its so motivating to produce beautiful music instead of just scales"
Michelle Lewis
"I've been learning piano for three years and although I was enthusiastic, all the teaching methods and teachers I originally tried were boring, difficult and repetitive.
One day I happened upon Josef on YouTube. I purchased Creative Piano Patterns and have thoroughly enjoyed working through each pattern. Josef has brilliantly crafted this course to enable me to understand music theory and progress through different levels and styles of playing while still making wonderful sounding music.
His tuition is succinct and the course has comprehensive printed notation, play along sessions and variations. Josef has a unique and friendly way of communicating his love of music. I absolutely recommend Creative Piano Patterns to any potential piano student"

Lets put the Fun - The Creativity - The Music... Back into the piano.
Hopefully by now you've watched the video at the top of this page.
If not?... Whut… head back up watch the video and digest all that's in it. Its got most things in there you need to know about the course and what it can do for you.
Done? good… Lets tune things up a bit.
I LOVE being able to sit down at that piano and just lose myself playing beautiful music.
Just 'sit and play', 'Tinker around and sound good' - Call it what you like!
Not to sound cliche, but it's such a great feeling.
To me, it brings out the passion and really engages us with why we want to play music in the first place.
Learning piano is not all about running up and down the same boring exercises, subjecting our families to the same thing day in and day out. And where does all this lead if it we still can't sit at that piano without feeling embarrassed? How do we get that confidence we need to just let our fingers do the work and let that music thats inside us flow out!
To me there is nothing better than just sitting and playing and having my family sat there listening and enjoying what i'm playing.
I want to bring this skill to you with this course. I want to equip you with what you need to confidently walk over to any piano and know exactly what to do to just play.
Read on to find out exactly how this course will improve your confidence and get you engaging with that musician thats inside you... EVEN IF YOU'RE A BEGINNER!
Bjorn uses patterns 5 and 6 from the Kick-Ass series to create and play this piece of music dedicated to his dog 'Lotte'
Bjørn Lyng used Creative Piano Patterns...
to write and perform a piece of music dedicated to his lovely little dog Lotte. What you hear is his own composition based on the patterns in the course. Its called "Ode to my little dog Lotte".
I think he should be very proud!
Note - Sounds difficult? Remember every pattern is broken down into manageable steps which you can practice and work through at your own pace. If you put the work in... You will get there.
Maxine Buller
"I'm so glad I found this course! I'm 63 yrs old and have been trying to learn the piano off and on most of my adult life. But whenever someone asked me to play, if I didn't have the sheet music of what I'd been practicing in front of me, I couldn't play a thing. It was so tedious and frustrating. But these lessons show you how to play improvisationally, something I've always wanted to learn but didn't know how to ask for.
The patterns are great for developing hand coordination and I'm finally getting a feel for rhythm. The patterns sound lovely too. I sound like I really know how to play.
It's all just so much more fun! And Josef explains it all so patiently but in a fun, light-hearted manner. If his enthusiasm and encouragement for making beautiful music doesn't infect you, you better check your pulse."
Greg Smith
"I had attempted to learn to play piano over the years in fits and starts. I’d often lose interest repeating boring scales and finger exercises over and over.
With Creative Piano Patterns I was able to learn by playing things that actually sounded musical – which kept my interest much longer and allowed me to make real and noticeable progress.
After following Creative Piano Patterns for a while, I even began to be able to pick out the specific musical patterns in songs I’d listen to on the radio. Using skills I gained from the course, I was even able to translate that to playing patterns I had then picked out from radio music. Finally, Creative Piano Patterns had even given me the extra knowledge to then add/change those patterns to create my own unique pattern; something I was never capable of doing before the Creative Piano Patterns course!"

See This Course IN ACTION... I LOVE This Pattern From The Kick-Ass Series!
Its Kick-ass pattern 18 from the course which I’ve called “open chords and flow”.
I love it because this is a perfect example of what this course will do for you. You can learn the principle, the themes and the variations (which we go into in depth) and then just sit and play for hours. Exploring the music and developing your musical ear.
The video here is me restricting myself to everything we learn in the pattern and just playing around with it.
I absolutely love being able to do this. You can too! (And thats just one of the thirty patterns in the course!)
We hate SPAM and promise to keep your email address safe.
Now let me ask you... How much would all of this be worth to you?
Let's consider each pattern is worth the cost of ONE piano lesson at roughly $50.
In reality, I think they are worth a lot more. Why? Because you can't get what i'm offering in normal piano lessons. However each pattern has layers to it which can keep you exploring the same pattern for weeks if not months. Way more valuable than one lonely piano lesson!

James Heard
"I am a 57 year old complete beginner and have always wanted to be able to play the piano but never quite got through the first few lessons.
Learning scales and chords, while essential, can on their own make learning pretty dull.
Well I bit the bullet and bought myself a digital Piano and started lessons. I started with scales again, learning the major chords, broken chords etc. and playing little ditties like Muffin man but it was becoming pretty boring after a few weeks.
It was then I found Josef Sykora's videos with some real fun basic patterns that not only sounded good and more melodic than the stuff in my grade 1 book but also further developed my core skills and finger dexterity.
I then joined his Creative piano patterns. It really has been a revelation, the next best thing to having Josef as your personal piano teacher!
I am still having my weekly piano lessons but I can now play a number of really interesting melodic patterns as well that importantly keeps me highly motivated and is more interesting for my family to listen to in the background than me playing only basic grade 1 and grade 2 book stuff.
The best thing of all is I have adopted the patterns and made some of them my own by changing some of the notes and order as the basic formula given allows me to express some creativity with my playing. Thanks Josef!"

Have a Question...? No problem. Shoot me an email here - Contact - and let me know if I can clarify anything for you
Before you send a question in... here are a few frequently asked questions...
Is this a one-time fee or a recurring fee?
Your payment is a one time fee. No recurring monthly payments. The only exception is if there is the option to pay in instalments and you choose to do so. Only then will you be billed monthly and this will stop automatically at the end of the instalment period.
Do I get Lifetime Access To The Course
Absolutely. Once you purchase the course, its yours forever. The course will be added to your account, or a new account created for you and you can use this account to access the members area whenever you want.
Your demonstrations look quite advanced. I’m a beginner. Can I still use this course?
Yes! Inside ‘most’ patterns, or where appropriate, I give you a variety of options to use when you play the patterns. I did this so that you can start out using the relatively simple method and work your way up to the more advanced method. There is also a collection of beginner patterns to get going with first.
How do I know this course is for me?
If you’ve read through the whole page and still unsure if the course is right for you… You can try it out risk free for 30 days. If its not for you, shoot me an email within 30 days and I can issue you a full refund.
Does the course include Notation?
Absolutely. For each pattern and each main theme and variation in the pattern, i’ve included the notation as well as printable sheet music documents so you can print it out and stick up by your piano.
Is this course suitable for complete beginners?
Absolute complete beginners, never touched a key? No. However, there is no reason why you can’t dive into the beginner patterns as a complete beginner. Its just you may need to fill in a few gaps such as fingering, what the notes are etc. The absolute basics aren’t included in the course.
Does purchasing one of your courses give me access to all of your courses?
No. My courses are all different with a different focus and are sold separately. Purchasing one course DOES NOT give you access to any other course.
Do I need to be able to sight-read in order to use this course effectively?
No. All tuition material assumes no sight reading ability. The sheet music for everything is included incase it is helpful for you. But it isn't necessary.
Some students tell me they actually use the included play along videos to practice their sight-reading as each follows the notation in real time.
