Hi Greg,learning from you and exploring your revolutionary playing concepts in depth are the greatest gifts I’ve received as I journey through musician’s focal dystonia. Your techniques and brilliant psychology are helping me significantly reduce and eliminate symptoms, and are leading me to a much healthier playing headspace. I’m rebuilding my playing machine from the ground up using your approach and am on my way to becoming a much more relaxed, efficient player. I couldn’t be more grateful for my recovery progress and the effectiveness of your teaching!

Hello Greg, wanted to thank you for the wonderful things you are doing with WindWorks. I have been struggling with bad playing habits the past 30+ years since studying with Chicowicz at Northwestern while still playing gigs and killing myself in the process. I am one of those students who struggled in college with some bad undergrad teaching methods. I have tried everything under the sun to make my playing more efficient but to no avail. Your ideas have saved my playing life and made playing the trumpet so much easier and fun again. As a public music educator K-12 the past 30 years, I highly endorse your teaching methods and approach to playing wind instruments. Best wishes to you and your family and continued success.

Hi Greg, sorry for my terrible english, consider my small donation just as a little symbol cause i really wanted to thank you some how for what you’re doing. I’m not joking when i say that the knowledge and the information that you’ve decided to share in such as generous way really changed my life not only as a player but also as a person… Please continue in doing what you’re doing: maybe you don’t even imagine the incredible importance of your job but i’m sure in the future you’ll be considered one of the great innovators of the brass playing like Arnold Jacobs. thanks a lot again!
