Ridley Academy Arvostelua 

Wow! What an experience from scratch to using both hands to play a piano. And this, in just five days! Now, next is playing my songs, written over years but never played out! Thank you, Stephen and the entire Ridley Academy,

Wonderful music. I would love to be able to play like that. I will in the future with Stephen's help.

Stephen Ridley has created a brilliant course for learning how to play the piano SO quickly and easily! I studied piano for 3 years as a pre-teen and this exceeds everything i have ever learned about music! He breaks it down to such simple essentials that blow my mind and have made it possible for me to be able to just play songs - and improvise - without even using sheet music! I unequivocally recommend his Piano Masterclass (which can give you the opportunity to master the piano in 6-12 months investing 15 minutes a day!) and Easy Piano in Five Days (hopefully he will offer this crash course again, which he just offered for the first time in November 2025)...totally amazing and inspiring!

The ease of learning something very difficult! Loved this program! I learned how to play in 5 days!

Stephen Ridley Academy is top notch. Started The Master Class last January after several weeks had shoulder issues so I had to stop (from previous injuries), just had shoulder surgery some weeks ago so it's been difficult to fully participate in the 5-day challenge, but had to jump on the opportunity anyway and learning a great deal (it's an excellent course, especially for the discounted price). That said, a very unique approach.... Lord willing, once my shoulder heals up I hope to plow through it all and accomplish it. Thank you Stephen and crew. Godspeed.

My week with Ridley Academy has been one of the best experiences of my life. The enthusiasm and confidence building skills I've gained are priceless. The learning program, brilliantly created and implimented, took complex material and broke it down making it simple to grasp and easy to learn. The entire operation was first class and Avant-guard using the lasterst in technology with excellent and timlely support at every turn. I highly recommend anyone at any level go to Ridley to quickly and panlessly learn piano.

When I lost my ability to play the guitar due to arthritis in my hands, I felt lost as my guitars and I were inseparable and calling myself a musician seemed to fade away until I attended Stephen Ridley’s 5 day piano course. I have always admired pianists and always wanted to learn to play so when the opportunity came u to attend this class I jumped at the chance to do it. Over these past 5 days, I have come to realize that I have a new path to regain my musician status. Stephen has a way of explaining the art of playing the piano in clear steps and he makes it fun and something to look forward to. I am now on a path with Stephen’s help to regain my musician status through the piano. Thank You Stephen.

I love Ridley’s academy I got a lot out of the five day course that Stephan put together, I love his charisma and enthusiasm he makes you wanna learn more , I’ve learned a lot from his courses, he makes it very enjoyable and entertaining it’s good to learn from someone so knowledgeable and loves what he’s doing that’s why I’ve joined the mentorship and looking forward to what he and his staff can teach me to become a better musician , Thank You Stephen and Staff. ❤️

Having a fantastic time learning piano from Stephen. He is so full of beautiful emotion, great energy and smiles. He makes learning a real pleasure. Stephen has mastered the language of piano playing and making it simple for his students. No regrets. He is a genius.

Ridley Academy is the best. Every step is a short video. I am learning one understandable step at a time and each video builds on the previous one. You learn at your own speed. I have complete confidence in myself with each lesson learned. They also have a mentor program if you learn better that way and it is amazing. I would recommend Ridley Academy to anyone who wants to play the piano.

What made my experience worth the while at Ridley Academy? Is the lessons are simplified to learn quicker and a lot easier to understand. Stephen and his staff are constantly there to guild and help you learn to play like a real professional piano player. Love it.

Ridley Academy is the best investment I did to myself buying masterclass. Everything is well organized and easy to learn piano with so many short cuts that makes easier and faster to learn. This is such a great community that you want to be part of!! A lot of beautiful collaborations, support and friendship blossomed from this community. This 5 days piano lesson it was amazing experience that makes you feel like you can do anything, even you never play piano or sing, After every day life practice with Stephen with 5 days I started believe that i can do it playing piano or even sing mine songs that I never thought about it, I thought I have to be talented to do that. Now i know thank to Stephen and all the Ridley Academy team that i can play piano become a musician if this will be my goal. Thank you so much you are amazing, awesome stories and unforgettable greatest music i ever heard. Love it, 🥰❤️

What a delight. I learned how to play 10 songs on the piano - really well - in 5 days! This is by far one of the best experiences I have ever had learning music. You can tell that Steven genuinely cares and has poured himself into making this academy the best it can be. I do not regret a single dollar or minute I have spent on this program. I will be using the things he taught me for the rest of my life to make music. Thank you!

I joined the learn piano in 5 days challenge and I couldn’t be more impressed by the level of commitment from Stephen and his team. His enthusiasm pours out of the screen and the lessons are easy to follow. Thanks for a great experience!

I am so pleased to share that I’m on an incredible life journey with The Ridley Academy. I took piano lessons as a child, but the traditional teaching methods made learning very challenging for me, and I eventually quit. For me, The Ridley Academy is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to finally learn an easier and more enjoyable way to play piano.
Stephen’s teaching is personable, encouraging, and unlike anything I’ve experienced before. His guidance is unmatched, and the mentorship within the program is outstanding. There are always resources available, along with Q&A sessions that make learning both informative and enjoyable.
Growing up—from childhood into adulthood—I experienced a lot of bullying and was often told I wasn’t good enough. My self-confidence was nearly gone, and I struggled to express my creativity or share who I really am. I have always loved piano and singing, and because I found The Ridley Academy with Stephen Ridley, I finally feel that I am enough. I’m learning to sing with confidence and to play the piano in a way that feels natural to me. This experience allows me to express myself freely, without judgment, and with genuine support and guidance.
It amazes me that after all these years, at 59 years old, my dreams are finally becoming a reality. So if anyone reading this is thinking about learning to play piano, don’t hesitate to join the team. You will be extremely impressed.

Stephen is truly exceptional — a remarkably gifted pianist and singer. My experience at Ridley Academy was outstanding, and I highly recommend him without any reservations.

Stephen Ridley is a great instructor who brings knowledge and enthusiasm to his courses. His methods are absolutely revolutionary. It is incredible that he can impart confidence and ability in such a short time. Worth every dollar.

Thank you for forever, changing my life for the better by teaching me how great it feels to feel comfortable around the piano as well as playing sing. I would’ve never believed it at first but now I see it with my own eyes and I’m still amazed. It’s been terrific absolutely mind blowing!!!!! I completed the masterclass and it helped me progress leaps and bounds. It opened my eyes to the world of music in ways I can’t put into words. My decision to purchase the master class from Ridley Academy has been life-changing. It’s made a difference in how I feel, how I react to other people in tense situations. It’s been extremely therapeutic. It’s allowed me to sleep better, eat better, and just have a totally different outlook on life. This is because of how phenomenal Stephen is as a teacher, and how supportive the staff at Ridley Academy have been with me on my musical journey. I had pretty much nearly given up on learning piano until one day, I saw an advertisement, on Facebook about Ridley Academy. I filled out the questionnaire and shortly after that received a call had a big long discussion about why I wanna learn piano and after the conversation I was convinced that yes signed me up. That was over a year ago and since then I have signed up for the mentorship program and I’m going through that and loving it. Prior to signing up for the mentorship program, I was convinced that I’m not someone that would even attempt a song let alone sing. The easy piano in five days course touched me and ways that I never thought were possible. I had recently gotten into a rut, and not really practice at all and kind of grew distant and then along came this course it was like being rescued from a sinking ship. I’m flabbergasted and amazed and I’m speechless about how much progress on the piano and in singing and it’s all thanks to Stephen.!!!!
