If you’ve been turned off by boring lessons or stiff teaching methods, you’re in the right place. Piano in a Flash is my proven approach that helps adults play the music they actually want to play — fast. No classical drills, no pressure — just simple tools, real songs, and a fun way to finally enjoy the piano at any age.
Let’s be honest — nobody’s itching to play “Hot Cross Buns.” My method skips the dusty beginner books and gets you playing music you actually recognize and enjoy. From day one, you'll be making real sounds that keep you motivated to keep going.
Learning piano isn’t just about music — it’s about giving yourself a break from the hustle. Whether you’ve got five minutes or fifty, this is your time to unwind, have fun, and create something meaningful. No pressure. No deadlines. Just pure enjoyment.
Most adult learners get discouraged because they don’t feel like real piano players. With my method, you’ll build confidence fast by sounding good early — even with just a few chords under your belt. Before long, you’ll be playing with style and ease.
"I am one of Scott’s pupils who had quit four times and now plays daily! If it hadn’t been for him my piano would be covered in dust. The main difference is he gets you playing quickly instead of practicing."
"As someone who has played musical instruments throughout their life and has taken lessons as well, this online program is very good. I particularly like Scott’s personality. He keeps it light and is genuine."
"I’ve been on the Piano in a Flash program for 4 weeks now and am loving it. I’ve learned 6 songs and can’t believe the fun I’m having while finally being able to make some decent music!"
I designed Piano in a Flash to feel nothing like the lessons you dreaded as a kid. From crystal-clear videos to physical books shipped to your door, every part of this course is built to help adult learners succeed without frustration. You’ll get structure when you need it, flexibility when you want it, and a fun, supportive way to finally call yourself a piano player.

I’ve spent the last 20+ years helping adults discover the joy of playing piano in a modern, chord-based style — without the stuffy rules of traditional lessons. After traveling the country for years teaching piano workshops, hosting a long-running public TV series called The Piano Guy on PBS and earning 6 Emmy Awards, I created Piano in a Flash to give everyday people a simpler, more fun way to learn. This course is the method I wish I had when I was starting out. If you’ve always wanted to play, you’re exactly who I built this for.
