So, we just got our Inner Circle Retreat this last weekend, and my friends, it was an absolutely amazing time. So motivating and so inspiring. A lot of our Inner Circle members came together. We did workshops, we did masterclasses, and we did group breakout sessions. It was an amazing time and we learned a lot together.
I want to share with you one little thing that we did talk about during the retreat 'cause I think it will be helpful for you as well, And that's this concept about playing "B.A.D" jazz solos and how playing "B.A.D" jazz solos all-year long could be the secret to massively and exponentially improving your jazz skills this year.
In this episode:
1. What B.A.D. stands for
2. Characteristics of a Brave solo
3. What is an Audited solo
4. Steps to Audit a solo
5. Listen to my own jazz solo and how I audit it
6. The Directional solo
7. Looking at B.A.D. solos in a different perspective
