The New BagpipeLessons.com 30 Day Practice Challenge for March 2011!

Last year, over 200 pipers from around the world joined together for the first BagpipeLessons.com 30 Day Practice Challenge. With the simple commitment to practice every day for 30 days, we discovered how dedicated, sustained practice routine can lead to big breakthroughs. Together, with beginners and world-class competitors and pipers from all levels in between, we shared practice tips, inspiration, and encouragement!

I'm thrilled to announce a new expanded and improved 30 Day Practice Challenge for March 2011. On March 1, we'll begin a month of fun and focus filled with educational tips, sheet music for tunes and exercises, mp3s, audio recordings, videos, live call-in question and answer sessions, and much, much more!

Each day you'll receive an email with your daily challenge and your specific focus for the day along with tips for staying excited and motivated to keep practicing. You'll have the opportunity to discuss your personal successes by sharing video and audio files with the group.

Whether your goal is to get more comfortable with the basics, to get ready for upcoming competitions, or simply to get more enjoyment and fulfillment from your piping... Sign up today! The 30 Day Practice Challenge is a fun way to make some real progress towards your piping goals.
