New Student Information
welcome to the studio!
I look forward to meeting you! My goal is to support students in all of their violin-playing goals and tailor the learning experience to fit their needs and maximize their strengths.
lesson availability
There are currently a limited number of openings for online lessons and in-person lessons in the Antelope Valley area. Please contact me for more information and to set up a consultation.
do I need to have a violin before i contact you?
No, this is absolutely something that I can help you with during a consultation! If you are not sure what to look for in a beginner-level violin, it is well worth getting some guidance. A working instrument makes a big difference, whether you're a beginner, intermediate, or advanced.
