What’s the “right” approach to piano technique—Hannon, Dozen a Day, Alexander Technique? In this episode, we skip the dogma and zoom in on three universal principles that simplify technique for every student: tension, ease, and sound. Discover how to spot unnecessary tension, why ease matters more than relaxation, and how sound-focused playing helps students develop real technical awareness. Whether you’re choosing exercises or correcting posture, these three guideposts will keep your teaching grounded, effective, and student-centered.
