The Practice Pyramid: What Matters Most When Practicing Music

The most common question I get from students and their parents when they ask about practice is: "how many minutes should I be practicing?".  This isn't the first question they should ask.  To get the most out of your practice, you need to work on 3 habits in a specific order to set a good foundation.  This episode introduces the Practice Pyramid to help make sure you are not just practicing enough minutes, but also to avoid wasting those minutes. Musicianship Mastery is formerly known as The Musician Toolkit.
