I give lessons, that combine violin practice, music theory and correct physical approach to playing. My goal is to teach my students to use the body correctly when playing the violin. I do this using Alexander technique, which teaches you approaches to playing the violin which reduce strain on the body and avoid injuries. This ensures your violin playing is more comfortable and therefore more enjoyable. I use Kodaly method which improves your understanding of music and your sight-reading skills. The Kodaly method is a well-established approach which combines music theory and practice to prove a rounded musical education. Music theory is taught in practical terms using the pieces being studied.
