The Musical Path To Finger Coordination, Speed and Strength On The Piano
And Practice Sessions You'll Genuinely Look Forward To - Day After Day!
Enjoy 225 Step-By-Little-Step Musical Piano Exercises Organised Into 16 Unique Musical Themes.
Building finger coordination, strength, and control usually comes with a trade-off: repetitive drills that feel mechanical and uninspiring.
Musical Finger Exercises takes a different approach.
Instead of long, dry patterns, you'll work through short, musical exercises that feel more like miniature pieces in their own right. They develop the same core skills, but in a way that feels far more engaging and musical from the very first notes.
Musical Finger Exercises is the fuel that powers your progress at the piano
"I'm so impressed with Josef's fantastic method! I've been teaching music at the university level for 15+ years and have never seen such a QUICK way for beginners and aspiring pianists to sound GREAT so quickly.
Josef doesn't just teach you to play piano. He teaches you to sound GREAT on the piano very, very quickly... far quicker than any other method I've seen before."
- DR. DOUGLAS PEW
Award-winning Composer
Here's the difference.
When you sit down with these exercises, they don't sound like drills. To anyone listening, it simply sounds like you're playing music. That means your practice feels meaningful, inspiring… and yes, genuinely enjoyable.
I hear from many students who feel self-conscious when practising. They keep the door closed, put on headphones, or worry their family will get tired of hearing endless clunky repetitions.
These exercises change that.
They let you work on essential piano skills while your practice actually sounds good, so you can practise with confidence instead of worrying who might hear.
This means your practice time feels enjoyable, rewarding, and becomes a source of confidence you carry into every piece you play

So How Does Musical Finger Exercises Work…
When I designed Musical Finger Exercises, my main priority was simple:
To make it easy to sit down at the piano, find something that sounds good, and start playing straight away.
No long explanations.
No complicated decisions.
No barriers between you and the keyboard.
You should be able to sit down, choose an exercise, and get playing within seconds.
To make that possible, the course is organised into a clear, three-part structure.
Musical Finger Exercises - 3 Part Structure
1) Themes
Each Theme is a musical focus or idea that gives the exercises a shared character.
A theme might explore:
a particular style or sound
a specific technical focus
or a musical idea you'll hear and feel as you play
The exercises within a theme are connected, so they make sense musically and feel cohesive rather than random.
2) Stages
Within each theme, the exercises are arranged into Stages.
Each stage builds naturally on the one before it, increasing the challenge just enough to keep things interesting without feeling overwhelming.
This gives you:
a clear sense of direction
steady progress
and the satisfaction of feeling yourself improve as you go
3) Exercises
Inside each stage, you'll find the Musical Finger Exercises themselves.
There's a variety of exercises in each stage, and in true Creative Piano Academy style, each one builds on what you've just played.
That means:
momentum instead of frustration
progress you can actually feel
and practice sessions that don't feel repetitive or stale
Creative De-Brief Lessons (Optional, But Powerful)
For those who enjoy exploring creatively, each theme also includes a de-brief lesson.
In these short sessions, I show you simple, practical ideas for:
turning the exercises into musical pieces
adapting them to your own style
and even creating your own variations based on the theme
With just a few guiding ideas, you'll never run out of musical material - and you'll develop your technique and your musical instincts at the same time.
Everything That's Included In Musical Finger Exercises
The Core Musical Finger Exercises Course
At the heart of this course is a carefully structured library of musical piano exercises designed to build coordination, speed, strength, and control - without turning practice into dry, mechanical drills.
You'll work through:
- 16 musical themes, each with a distinct sound and focus
- Multiple stages inside each theme, gradually increasing the challenge
- 225+ short, musical exercises that feel more like mini pieces than drills
Each exercise builds naturally on the last, giving you a clear sense of momentum, progress, and musical flow rather than repetition for its own sake.
Josef's Rough & Ready "Get Started" Guide To Piano
(Included for complete beginners)
If you're starting from scratch, or want a quick refresher on the basics, I've included a short 3-lesson foundation guide to help you feel comfortable at the piano before diving into the main course.
These lessons cover:
- How to sit and feel relaxed at the piano
- Simple patterns to get your fingers moving with confidence
- A clear, beginner-friendly introduction to the sustain pedal
They're designed to remove friction, not slow you down - so you can move into the main course feeling prepared rather than hesitant.
How To Get The Most Out Of This Course
Musical Finger Exercises isn't just a collection of material - it's a way of practising.
To help you use it well, I've included a short set of guidance lessons showing you:
- How to navigate the course efficiently
- How to approach exercises so they actually work
- How to use tempo and repetition to make steady progress
- When to move on… and when to stay put
This keeps your practice focused, effective, and free from guesswork.

Because this is an exercise-based course, every lesson is supported by interactive play-along software that turns practice into a guided, musical experience.
With it, you can:

- Slow exercises down or speed them up
- See keys light up as they're played
- Loop tricky sections until they feel comfortable

"I love the way Josef has an easy approach. He's easy to listen to, easy to follow, and you feel like you're actually achieving something at the end of it. It's very encouraging.
He will say… well, let's try something else… and you realize you're being challenged a little more. It allows you to progress how you want. He develops each topic and you realize as you're learning more and more, you can make a simple piece of music sound so much better. I have a real sense of enjoyment!"

"Hello Josef, I have been finding my way around the course following your suggestions and finding it truly amazing. The interactive software is fantastic and what I have discovered so far is worth the course fee itself.
It is truly what I was looking for and the exercises are brilliant.
I am so looking forward to getting my fingers moving again like I used to do in the past. Thank you so much Josef. Best wishes,

"Having my first foray into the new course. There's so much in it. Packed full of piano fun and heaps of challenges for self-expression. Josef my friend, you have outdone yourself. You manage to take the hoo-hum out of piano practice and make us really want to just go there and play. Thank you!"
