Yoga for Piano? ‘New Age’ Piano Lessons Soothe Stressed-Out Students
Written by Edward Weiss
Twisting, stretching, and holding a pose … that’s what yoga students do to tone and relax the body at the same time.
But piano teacher Edward Weiss doesn’t want all those benefits to go just to yoga students.
Weiss, a pianist, composer, and teacher has developed an online piano course where students can learn how to play something called ‘new age’ piano.
The ‘new age’ genre has been around since the early 1980’s and remains a legitimate style of music. Even the Grammy awards recognize it. So it’s no surprise that someone somewhere would create a place where those wanting to learn this style of music can go.
Weiss explains…
“I’ve always loved the sound of New Age piano and wanted to bring the benefits of playing in this style to as many people as possible. The great thing about this genre of music is that no note-reading is required and students can simply sit down at the piano, relax, and play what they feel at the same time.”
The course now has over 100 lessons and 1000 members. Students have access to videos, audio, and personal instruction from Weiss who charges a small monthly fee for access to everything on the site.
When asked what his ultimate goal is for students, Weiss responds:
“If someone can just walk over to their piano or keyboard, sit down, and just play what they are feeling, then I feel I’ve accomplished what I set out to do which is give people a way to relax, unwind, and get creative at the piano.”
A free piano lesson ‘Summer Morning’ and book ‘Free to be Creative at the Piano’ are available at Weiss’s website at http://www.quiescencemusic.com

Second Sudden Mutation in the Creation of the Human Being (Forty-Nine)
Eventually, another birth of twins, a male and female, were very important animals being born into our world. For they were the new species of Primates, the second, sudden mutation. While at the same time, another couple, rather mentally and physically inferior of the mid-mammal tribe, also gave birth to twins, a male and a female. These twins were indifferent to conquest; they were concerned only with obtaining food and, since they would not eat flesh, soon lost all interest

First Sudden Mutation in the Creation of the Human Being (Part Forty-Eight)
Early in the career of the dawn mammals, in the treetop abode of a superior pair of these agile creatures, twins were born one male and one female. Compared with their ancestors, they were really handsome little creatures. They had little hair on their bodies and this did not hinder them, since they lived in a warm and equable climate. rn rnThese children grew to be a little over four feet in height. They were in every way larger than their parents, having longer legs and sho

Ancestry of the Human Race (Part Forty-Seven)
About one million years ago, the immediate ancestors of mankind made their appearance by three successive and sudden mutations stemming from early stock of the lemur type of placental mammal. These early lemurs involved in the ancestry of the human species were not directly related to the pre-existent tribes of gibbons and apes then living in Eurasia and northern Africa, whose offspring had survived to the present time. Neither were they the offspring of the modern type of le

The Key to Using the Powerful Law of Attraction
I've written about the Law of Attraction many times in the past describing how what we put our focus on and the energy we put out to the Universe the most-whether positive or negative, frustrated or satisfied, in the flow or chaotic-is what we attract into our lives. I've also described how the Universe, God, Spirit, Source, Infinite Intelligence, whatever you choose to call your higher spirit, has natural laws that are what you might call "non-negotiable." >>>Learn More : ht
