Course Description


Step into the world of boogie-woogie and discover the rhythm, energy, and groove of this exciting blues piano style! 

This course is designed for beginners as well as those who simply want to add some swing to their playing, and it will have you playing authentic boogie blues in no time. You’ll start with a basic 12-bar blues progression, and then gradually build it up by adding a classic boogie-woogie left-hand bass pattern, before moving on to the essential chords, rhythms, and techniques that create that authentic blues sound. As you progress, you’ll learn how to add catchy right-hand licks and riffs, and even begin exploring improvisation so you can make the music your own.

The lessons are quick, easy to follow, and always fun, guiding you step-by-step so that you can copy, practice, and then play with confidence. You don’t need to be able to read sheet music to take part, but a bonus eBook is included with all the sheet music and lesson resources for those who find it helpful.

The course is structured in stages that gradually increase in difficulty, with mini practice pieces at each step to showcase your progress. Along the way, you’ll find exercises designed to strengthen your hands, improve your stamina, and build fluency, while also giving you the freedom to integrate the riffs, licks, and techniques smoothly into your improvisations.

To make practice even more enjoyable, the course comes with backing tracks so you can play along with the sound of a real blues band. By the time you reach the end, you’ll not only have the skills to sit down and play with confidence — you’ll also be able to jam along with impressive boogie-woogie flair, bringing that classic blues groove to life every time you touch the keys.

Sheet Music eBook Download


The course also comes with a 24-page eBook featuring music notation for every riff, lick, and exercise you’ll learn. Simply download and print it, and you’ll have all the sheet music ready at your piano whenever you need it.

Hi I'm Arthur, the founder of Birds Piano Academy. Want to know more about who you'll be learning from? Well read on.

I've been playing the piano now for over 30 years, and after achieving Grade 8 with the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music I started touring as a session player in theatre shows all over the United Kingdom. I've had the fortune to have performed in venues such as Nottingham Arena, Liverpool Arena and Wembley Arena, as well as theatres from Aberdeen to Southampton and everywhere in between. In addition, I have lots of experience in recording studios, and with bands have played music all over the world, around Europe and from the USA to Australia. I've been teaching piano for over 17 years, and I'm also an approved tutor with the City of York Arts Council.

I really enjoy teaching piano in ways that make it engaging and fun, and love creating educational videos to help people like yourself be the best piano player that you can possibly be!
