Having been previously self-taught on piano and with limited theoretical knowledge, I found myself quite nervous and unsure of my skills. Nathan helped me with focusing on my strengths, whilst also helping me improve greatly in areas where I was feeling less than confident with my piano playing.
Nathan is highly observant, intelligent and brings understanding and empathy to a piano lesson. He makes you feel comfortable to take a leap of faith, and empowers you to help you develop confidence to play piano, and perform in a live setting. I would highly recommend him to anyone that wants to learn to play piano, or to a player who wants to perfect their craft.

I began lessons with Nathan on the recommendation of a mutual friend. At the start, my intention was to improve as a pianist, to go over technique and music theory. The lessons very quickly grew into discussing music, song writing, theory and the psychological demands of music and the industry.
Each lesson was invaluable and addictive. I can not truly express how much I learned from Nathan and how inspiring the lessons were. He became a mentor and driving force behind my music and songwriting exploration. He encouraged me to continually reach out to friends to collaborate or just simply discuss music and he taught me to forgive myself of the mistakes I always saw as icebergs to my titanic.
I highly recommend Nathan Seiler and all he has to offer.

Working with Nathan has been an exceptionally positive experience. Nathan is a genuine and warm person, and this combined with his life experience, perceptiveness and his own personal ongoing pursuit of knowledge, allows him to clearly guide and encourage positive change in the lives of others.I made significant progress in regard to my personal and professional development following our mentoring sessions and will always be exceptionally grateful for this.I would highly recommend Nathan for mentoring and coaching!

If you are ready to move closer to your true purpose, mission and vision then I recommend you have a conversation with Nathan Seiler, -a gifted counsellor and coach. My first session with Nathan was a simple and transformational conversation, that resulted in an important break through for me. Within the very first session, we uncovered beliefs and stories that were holding me back on many levels. Over the following sessions, I started to see the world with fresh and artistic eyes! I reconnected with spirituality and purpose and could observe the interplay of these with my career and music world. I have found a new place of ease, and understand how easy it is to 'let go' when needed and to move towards stillness within movement. The outcome is I am now more connected with the beauty of simple notes on the piano, and the value I bring to others through my work. I have moved ahead in my career, becoming a stronger leader, and am embarking on a new music adventure that is aligned with who I am. Nathan has a knack of reaching for a book and sharing the perfect passage, adding extra texture and wisdom to the conversation. I highly recommend coaching sessions with Nathan, he holds a grounded and trusting space, the pivot point for powerful change.

My lessons with Nathan came as part of a university degree. They came at a difficult time in my life - I had just moved town, I had a pregnant wife (and then brand new baby), we were living in a very small house. I had barely played piano since the move, let alone properly practiced. I felt lost, frustrated and disillusioned. I honestly believe if it wasn't for Nathan's patient and revolutionary teaching methods, I would have given up. He helped me not only improve on the instrument, but radically changed my perspective on music and life and helped me breakthrough a barrier I had been trapped behind for almost a decade. His lessons have also helped shape my own educational beliefs and philosophies, and I hope to be able to achieve for my students even a fraction of what he did for me.

In a world constantly changing, a person is forced to adapt and shape into new moulds. At times it can be a little overwhelming to take it all in and you can lose track of your inner-foundation. You can lose yourself and you can even lose your mind.
Working with Nathan over the past ten years has been my one, constant experience. Nathan facilitates and guides with clarity, efficiency and with incredible emotional intelligence and intuition. There has been so much in my life that was unexplainable but working through these thoughts and moments with Nathan has provided me with a skillset that is invaluable and has built walls of confidence in who I am.
Working with Nathan has proved to me that nothing is ever broken as much as it is a lesson learnt and that with enough determination and facilitation of viewpoint shifts, I can achieve things that I would have never imagined in my past.
Nathan is forever my mentor and forever a light that will weather any storm.
