Welcome to Jazz Piano Skills. I’m Dr. Bob Lawrence, and it’s time to discover, learn, and play jazz piano!

Today, I have the pleasure of introducing the Jazz Piano Skills community to Mr. Patrick Kohalmi, a multi-talented individual. He's not just a jazz pianist but also a professional sound engineer, bodybuilder, and personal fitness trainer. What's more, he was my very first international online Jazz Piano Skills student.
.
Patrick Køhalmi resides in Denmark and continues to be actively musically involved in studying and performing jazz piano. In addition to his musical passion, He is a world-class bodybuilder who has developed the mental discipline necessary to succeed at a high level in the music and fitness disciplines. Today's conversation explores both disciplines and highlights the not-often-discussed (if ever discussed) common variables and attributes that both disciplines share, and so much more. If you have never thought of music and fitness as being similar disciplines you will after listening to this podcast episode.

So, sit back, grab your favorite beverage, and enjoy this Jazz Piano Skills podcast episode with special guest Patrick Køhalmi.
