Edward Lewis Hanserd
Your Instructor
Do you have the desire to play but aren't sure how to bring everything together?
- You know individual chords, but progressions still feel like guesswork
- You want to play praise music confidently — not hesitantly
- You lean on sheet music and freeze without it
- Lead sheets and chord charts still look like a foreign language
- You want to develop your ear and hear what's happening in a song
- Transitions between chords feel slow, choppy, or uncertain
- You want to serve and participate more confidently in praise and worship
- You need structure, consistent practice, and real instruction
You don't have to figure it out alone.
Heavenly Soundz Music AcademyWorship Piano Class 2: Activate in Praise
Over four months, Edward Lewis Hanserd guides you through a progressive learning experience built to develop practical piano skills — chords, progressions, theory you can actually use, chord charts, and ear training — step by step, week by week.
This isn't a stack of Zoom lessons. It's an Academy program that combines instruction, guided practice, musical development, and practical application, so you finish with the confidence to activate your own sound in praise.
Learn the Music. Develop Your Gift. Release Your Sound.
Four Months of Real, Usable Skill
Every month builds on the last — so you're not collecting information, you're developing as a musician.
Worship Chords & Progressions
Move beyond isolated chords. Play the progressions behind the praise and worship songs you already love — smoothly and in any key you're asked to play.
Basic Music Theory
Understand why the music works. Practical theory you'll use at the keys every week — no textbooks, no confusion.
Lead Sheets & Chord Charts
Sit down with a chart at rehearsal and know exactly what to do with it, instead of waiting for someone to hand you the notes.
Playing by Ear
Train your ear to recognize chord movement so you can follow a song, a singer, or a spontaneous moment in service.
Praise Patterns & Musical Movement
Build the fills, passing chords, and rhythmic patterns that carry a congregation from one section of a song to the next.
Confidence & Expression
Play without second-guessing yourself. Develop the touch, dynamics, and expression that turn correct notes into worship.
How to Activate Your Sound in Praise
The heart of Class 2: bringing your skill, your ear, and your gift together so what comes out of the keys is unmistakably yours.

Edward Lewis Hanserd
Edward is a musician, a worshipper, and a teacher. He leads every live class personally — walking students through chords, progressions, and the heart behind the sound at a pace developing players can actually follow.
His focus is growth in both skill and confidence: helping you understand what you're playing, why it works, and how to bring your own gift into praise and worship.
This program may be right for you if...
- You've always wanted to learn worship piano
- You know some piano but need greater structure
- You want to become more confident playing praise music
- You want to understand chords instead of memorizing songs
- You want to strengthen your ability to play by ear
- You play (or want to play) on a church keyboard or praise team
- You've taken Worship Piano Class 1 and want to keep developing
- You want instruction from an experienced musician in a supportive environment
