Many trumpet players experience frustration, inconsistency, or uncertainty in their practice — and assume that’s just normal.
In this video, I break down 3 trumpet practice habits that are common, but don’t have to stay that way.

These habits often feel normal because they’re widespread, especially when players work hard without a clear system, feedback loop, or defined outcome. The goal here isn’t to criticize how you practice — it’s to help you understand why these experiences happen and what can change them.

In this video, you’ll learn:

Why certain frustrating practice experiences are so common
How these habits affect progress, confidence, and consistency
What principles I use to create clearer, more productive practice
How to rethink practice without invalidating your past experience
This video is for serious trumpet players who want to practice with more clarity, intention, and confidence — whether you’re a student, amateur, or professional.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re working hard but not seeing the results you expect, this will help you understand what’s actually going on.
