scam artist
I saw an ad on youtube offering a free masterclass, offering tips and tricks to better play the piano and at the end, we would get a free practice pdf. the ad said it would take 60-90 minutes. well, here i am, 3 hours and 41 minutes later, and all this 'masterclass' has been is one huge infomercial. hes taught us absolutely nothing. the "masterclass" consists of us watching him play the piano, and him pressuring us to buy his actual course.

The Ridley Academy is AMAZING!
This piano course has been AMAZING! I am learning scales, and songs, finger work, it's all coming together is a really awesome way. I am finally winning as a pianist. It has been one of the best experiences of my life. Thanks Stephen Ridley for your Masterclass!

The Ridley Method is the simplest method to learn the piano that I have ever tried.
I have tried to teach myself the piano before. I have tried learning it in school, I had a tutor for a while, and I've spent maybe a hundred hours on youtube trying. The Ridley Academy is by far the easiest method so far.

The Ridley Academy course is not a scam.
It's funny that all the reviews of people who actually tried it rave about how good it is. And the only negative ones are from people who didn't try it. https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/ridleyacademy.com Is full of happy customers, and the only complaints are from people who aren't customers. Probably competitors writing fake reviews.

This is totally new for me
Stephen has this way of teac hing that is so different. He makes it easy, and totally understandable. I have never enjoyed learning the piano before. Playing, yes. But learning has always sucked. This course has totally changed my life. I am playing better than ever before.

I was worried it was a scam
I was worried that it was a scam. It isn't. It took some mental gymnastics before I bite the bullet, but it has been worth it. The classes have been great. The Facebook group has been life-changing. At least education-changing. Such a great group of people on there, all working together to become great at the piano. I love it.

It was a large investment, but worht it
It was a large investment for me to sign up for the course. I hvae wanted to play the piano for decades. This is giving me the hope that I will be able to play it well, soon. Stephen has a way of teaching music that is different than any other person. Really enjoying it.

It's really engaging
I have been trying to find a good online course to learn the piano for a year and a half. I started the Ridley Academy a few months ago. I really like the facebook group that all of the students are on. Really great stuff.

So far so great.
I've been following along Stephen's course for the last few weeks and have been completely loving it! It's been easier to follow than I expected at first, he isn't rushing into things, this isnt a youtube tutorial, but he goes over EVERYTHING step by step. Really great.

The Ridley Academy is legit
I am fairly cynical, and I don't trust most things. But I have quite enjoyed this one so far. It has been faster than I expected, and I am learning how to play the piano. I am doing the piano masterclass, and quite enjoying it.
On the way to being great at the piano. I'm actually racing a friend who is getting some tutoring, so we'll see who can play better, or get good faster.

Fantastic and fun way to learn piano
I joined the masterclass about two months ago and learned more in those two months than I did in several years of traditional music lessons. Stephen shares so much knowledge in such a fun way, and I found that time just disappeared while I was learning. My husband has already mentioned that he noticed a big improvement in how I play. A big bonus of this program is the genuine positivity and encouragement from Stephen and other classmates. It truly is an amazing program.

Great for beginners so far
I've used the course for a few weeks now, and I'm grateful Stephen built a solid academy to learn how to play the piano: from the structure masterclass to just the quick crash courses it's all top notch. I haven't gone through the entire course yet, but what I love is the efficiency of the classes, his energy and conviction as he teaches the subject, and the encouragement from the community that builds my personal practical application.

I can't wait to continue my musical journey with his guidance!
Stephen Ridley's piano masterclass was incredible! I learned so much about the piano and music theory in just one session. His teaching style is supportive and encouraging, and I feel much more confident playing the piano now. I can't wait to continue my musical journey with his guidance!

Seems good so far
I'm just getting into it, and the stuff I am learning has been good so far. I'll update if it stops being good, or gets weird.

The Not So Talented Mr Ripley
This course is a scam.
Mr Ridley claims you can be a piano player with just 3 mins practice a day in just 6 months !!
This is absolute nonsense!!
