Here's a quick video explaining it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faxNDhOjlh4
Piano Gym is a learning and practice ecosystem focused on prioritizing music theory and performance skills acquisition through the use of flash cards. We use flash cards in order to pair them with modern learning techniques like spaced repetition, graded feedback, and progress tracking so that you can practice material and work through content that is managed by Piano Gym, and all you have to do is enroll in a school/course/lesson and do your reps! Just show up every day and do 15 minutes of reviews. You're going to make progress.
Our website uses the Piano to navigate exercises as well as regular keyboard/mouse input. We work on browser technology and are looking to eventually make it mobile devices.
We provide content creation for everyone so that anyone can make their own schools/courses/lessons and the best part is each school gets its own landing page.
For example we're using the methods book from https://freepianomethod.com which is provided by Mayron Cole, and if you wanted to practice it without signing up or enrolling you could easily visit this link: https://pianogym.com/schools/Mayron%20Cole%20Method
Even better when you find the piece you want to practice you can share it directly like so: https://pianogym.com/schools/Mayron%20Cole%20Method?sheet_mu...
Our goal is to do this for free. We believe that no one should be blocked from learning. And one of the issues with this at the moment is that our team is very small and has been currently working nights and weekends to make this happen. We would love the chance to add a technical member to our team in order to build this product out to its full vision.
If you're interested please feel free to direct message me or reach out on social media :)

Yeah. I made Piano Gym because I've seen several solutions for Piano/Music Theory and at the end of the day I really think having people create curriculums and setting progression while managing it is the best approach for intentional practice between autodidacts/teachers/learners.
One of the cool things is that we have a flash card creation tool that will automatically chop a piece of sheet music into flash cards of 1/2/3/n measures at a time so that you can make flash card sets to deliberately practice sections of a song. It's really cool! I'm still on the fence of how to leverage this effectively for learners, but I've been thinking about the idea of making 1 measure flash card sets, 2 measure, 3 measure, and then the full piece. In many ways I can do anything with Piano Gym and that's the problem for me now
