Whether you’ve been using the old Blast Off Book in your studio already, or if you’re wanting to transition new students into the Supersonics Method – this bridging book is the best spot to introduce later beginners to Supersonics.
Crucial elements to your students’ success are introduced in Blast Off Bridge. Students begin to play with sharps and flats, learn basic pop chords, and extend their reading range beyond C to G. They also start using the sustain pedal and finish building core technical skills.
Delight your students with engaging online teaching resources that accompany all the Supersonics Method Books and streamline your teaching process.
You’ll love watching your students fall in love with the piano.
When you’ve completed this bridging book, move into Level 2 of the piano method. Read more information about transferring from other methods here.
