Violin lessons built around real technique, not just repertoire
Whether it's a first lesson at age six or picking the instrument back up at fifty, our teachers meet each student where they are and build a plan toward what they actually want to play.
No instrument yet?
You don't need to buy one to start — renting a violin or viola is easy and affordable.
Classical or contemporary
Traditional classical training, fiddle, country, and even rock-influenced lessons, depending on what your student wants.
Violin or viola
We teach both, and can help you decide which is the better fit before you commit to an instrument.
Free recitals, twice a year
Students perform at no charge — no participation fees, and admission is always free for family and friends.

Taught by musicians who've actually done it
Our violin and viola faculty trained at institutions like Berklee College of Music, Grand Valley State University, the University of Miami, and Michigan State University, with performance experience across the US, Europe, Asia, and beyond — including performances for three different U.S. presidents.
