I think one of the best tips you could give is to practice one hand at a time. I am still learning and my hands are not really that great yet but in the beginning when i picked up Hanon i did it with both hands and thought everything was great. But the problem is that the left hand covers up the right hands mistakes which means my right hand was playing at a faster pace than it actually could. So when i tried doing it one hand at a time i noticed, my right hand sucks! So i had to slow down the BPM and now i am letting my right hand catch up to my left before i progress any further. Balance.
So many videos portray the performance (of exercise or music) without giving instruction on how to practice. Your style teaching on video is excellent. Keep it up! . Thanks!
Your way to illustrate is easy to understand ❤ thanks for this lesson
आपका समझाने का तरीका.... बहुत सरल है....... छोटी सी...वीडिओ क्लिप में.... Rhythm, lead, & feelings.... आदि आदि..... मतलब बहुत कुछ समझा दिया...... धन्यवाद.... Thenks 🌹💖🌹
I did 5 years of Hanon after years of bad habits, I never got tired of it, Now I only occasionally use it, it really helped, now I’m practicing Czerny
Emma Blair you taught me severely well

Splendid explanation and really you are a born teacher. Congratulations 🌹
I also like to practice one hand staccato and the other legato, and then alternate.
Wow. This is avery helpful Video. I will begin to attack Hannan with so much motivation. You demonstrated the exercised very clearly. Thank you.
Not sure if you are checking comments after a year but on the off-chance you are... Thank you very much for this. I only took up piano 3 weeks ago and a video like this is exactly what I was looking for. A friend gave me the Hanon book but I wasn't sure whether I should be doing it or not this early. It actually seems like I totally can. Thanks' again.
This video is incredibly helpful, and easy to follow. Thank you for sharing ❤️🎹🎶
Excellent video — thank you!
@6:48 You suggest transposing to different keys. For D major for instance, are there different fingerings available? D to F# is quite a stretch, possibly injury potential.
You have a great teaching style. I like how you talk about how to practice properly, instead of just teaching the notes
Wow I'm liking your channel, very high quality videos and good material. You're a good speaker as well. Looks like your last video was a year ago, hoping you'll post more soon! Especially on beginner topics of musicality and such
This was excellent...thank you...
This is exactly the video I was looking for! Thank you!!!
I dont know what to think of these exercises. Starting out on classical piano a few weeks ago. Hanon was easy and fun to play, I worked on these among other things, playing # 1 - 10 and # 31 wich is really pretty ! Problem was I got pain in my hand, although I wasnt forching, speeding or any hard playing. Now I take a break from Hanon. If I ever go back, and I think I will, I must think of playing 1: relaxed, relaxed, relaxed. 2: slow, slow, slow.
