This course is based on GéNIA's highly acclaimed Piano-Yoga® Book 'Transform Your Hands':  'a unique hand and finger workout that can do more for your technique than hours of practising pieces: the muscles of your hands could become much stronger and in turn your finger flexibility should increase'.   GéNIA is a Ukrainian-born London-based concert pianist and composer, who is also a qualified yoga teacher. The book received the international recognition in many major music publications.   The aim of the Preliminary Stage is to prepare you for the main work in Stages 1, 2 and 3, where, as the programme continues, your span on the keyboard may also increase. Your hands may even feel and seem larger!'   Stage One: Core Piano-Yoga® is designed for intermediate to advanced pianists and the most important in the whole course which is why it is referred to as Core Piano-Yoga®. It was originally created by GéNIA as the primary set of piano exercises to help stretch her hands and fingers and perform Sergei Rachmaninoff 'Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini'. All the other stages were created later and work in conjunction with Stage One: Core Piano-Yoga®.  The essence of the exercises in Stage 2, Yin Piano-Yoga® is derived directly from yoga where a slow stretching movement, led by a breath, is one of the main essentials. You should perform these exercises only after completing Stage One, or at least, when your hands are already warm. As we result, you will become more aware of your hand muscles and the individuality of each finger. It will allow piano playing to become easier for you.  Stage Three: Advanced Piano-Yoga® is the final stage of the whole course. By the time you reach Stage Three, if you have been following all the instructions from the previous stages correctly, your fingers should be stronger and your hand span wider than when you started. Some of the exercises in this Stage 3 sound like short minimalist pieces.  'Piano-Yoga® is more than a book of exercises. It is an holistic approach focusing on all aspects of performance and the performer.' Ian Grundy, pianist, piano teacher and composer  The method has featured majorly in the music press, especially in the British media, described as ‘The 21st century answer to playing the piano' by Yoga & Health Magazine, as well as vouched for by Piano Professional magazine: ‘It really does work. Many pianists have been helped with this unorthodox and unusual method.’   While developing Piano-Yoga®, GéNIA has become a qualified British Wheel of Yoga teacher.
