A Hand-Lettering Course Built Smarter
From Beginner to Confident Letterer in 30 Days
Lettering Leap™ isn’t just a collection of random drills or isolated exercises. It’s built around the patterns that form every letter and every word. By recognizing the 8 basic strokes that make up the entire alphabet — and applying them to real letters and words from day one — your practice becomes connected, logical, and purposeful.
Each lesson builds on the last in a deliberate sequence, so you always know why you’re practicing something and how it moves you closer to confident hand-lettering. No guessing, no aimless repetition — just a clear, guided system that produces real results.
The Lettering Leap Advantage:
A clear 30-day roadmap that shows exactly what to practice next
Short, focused daily lessons — 10 minutes or less — that fit your schedule
Real letters and words from day one, not disconnected drills
A stroke-based approach that ties everything you learn into one cohesive skill
Finish the course with confidence, clarity, and tangible progress
How Lettering Leap Is Different
Lettering Leap isn’t just another lettering course. Every lesson, stroke, and exercise is carefully designed to build real skill — efficiently, intentionally, and in a way that actually works. Here’s what sets it apart.
1. Built on patterns — not random drills
Every letter is formed from a small set of foundational strokes, just like every word is built from the same 26 letters. Lettering Leap is designed around this principle. Instead of relying on endless drills or rote memorization, the system trains your brain to recognize stroke patterns that repeat across multiple letters — making learning faster, more intuitive, and easier to retain.
2. Real letters and words from day one
Lettering Leap doesn’t make you “master strokes” in isolation before letting you move on. From the very first lessons, you’ll apply those strokes directly to real letters and words. This immediate application helps lock in muscle memory and understanding through use — not abstraction — so skills stick long-term.
3. Focused by design
The purpose of Lettering Leap is simple: to teach you brush lettering — efficiently and effectively. There’s no filler, no unnecessary extras, and no side quests. Every stroke, exercise, and lesson is intentional, working together to help you build confident hand-lettering in just 30 days, with 10 minutes or less of practice per day.
4. A complete, end-to-end system
Lettering Leap isn’t a collection of tips or exercises — it’s a fully designed learning system. Each lesson builds on the last, with nothing missing and nothing out of order. You’re not expected to fill in gaps, guess what comes next, or hunt for extra resources. Just follow the system from start to finish.

How to Use the Lettering Leap Course
Step 1: Print or open the PDF
You can use regular printer paper — no fancy supplies needed. Printing in color is recommended, but not required. Or, open the PDF on a tablet if you prefer digital lettering.
Step 2: Grab a brush pen
All you need is a brush pen. We recommend the Tombow Fudenosuke Hard Tip — affordable, high-quality, and beginner-friendly. Use it at a 45° angle for smooth strokes, pressing gently on upstrokes and firmly on downstrokes.
Step 3: One lesson per day
Each lesson takes about 10 minutes or less. Follow the lessons in order — take a rest day here and there if you need to, but stay consistent for the best results.
Step 4: Save your progress
Keep each completed lesson. Reviewing your work later lets you see how much your lettering improves over time.
