jazz piano - where to begin?

on: January 26, 2003, 11:03:53 AM

I'd like to learn how to play jazz piano/improvisation in general, but I've only had classical instruction. I have no idea where to begin. My attempts to find some help online resulted in even more confusion. Am I supposed to get books and learn on my own, or should I just take lessons? Any advice would be appreciated.
