Inside the Taubman Approach

Welcome to Inside the Taubman Approach Podcast! I’m your host, Benjamin Harding. 


This new podcast is an inside look at the power of the Taubman Approach, an approach to  working with playing-related problems, such as discomfort, tension, pain and injuries. Through first hand experiences and discussions with some of the premiere teachers of this approach we'll be sharing how pianists at various stages of learning the piano have benefitted and grown through applying the Taubman Approach.
