Progress has no deadline

Being on stage as often as possible is crucial for our development… My approach is all about a bigger picture rather than an immediate outcome… Focusing on continuity.

Looking back at last year’s performances.

The violin and the body

BODY Awareness & Muscle Control & Fine Motor Skills are one of the hardest things to master especially for young children.

VIOLIN is an instrument that very much depends on such awareness right from the start. Slowing down and bringing calmness into a busy world of children’s minds is an absolute necessity.

Being able to feel & understand and control our movements. What should move and what requires stillness or relaxation. (Neck, shoulders, arms, elbows, hands, feet, fingers, fingertips etc)

Creating and inventing exercises that are always supported by progressive and inspiring musical repertoire. Practising our awareness is a must. Observing, feeling, listening and always questioning.

Bringing simplicity and aiming for the most natural feel will become an Anchor for all future progress as well as belief in oneself.
