The pedagogy for the Taubman Approach involves more than learning how to apply the information to one’s own hands. An important initial observation is that we are all built the same — the same bones, muscles, ligaments and nervous system. In addition, the piano is governed by its own mechanical principles.
We do not, however, all end up with the same technical problems. For example, some people may come with a technique that involves too much relaxation, while others come with excessive tension. One person may have difficulties with a particular skill, while another person may find the same skill easy.

Debbie Poryes
Jazz Pianist – Teacher – Composer
 
Hi, welcome to my website! I can teach you how to play jazz piano. I would enjoy playing at your special events, parties at home, or in your restaurant or club.
 
 
I’ve been playing, composing, arranging and recording since I fell for Monk and Miles at 17 years old. Just sit me down at a nice piano and listen to standards, bebop, modern jazz. There is nothing like live, swinging music to warm up a room.
I teach in-person lessons near Philadelphia and online lessons anywhere in the world—all levels, all ages.
 
“A musician you should be aware of is pianist Debbie Poryes. Her playing is confident, yet playful, thoughtful, but full of life.”
 
“Debbie’s extensive preparation and individualized approach to teaching helps me believe that I can achieve my dream of jazz expression. Each lesson is a testament to her expertise.”
