Essential Scales for Beginning Violinists
If there would be one “shortcut” to learning the violin more quickly, it would be called “scales”!
They can sound a little “boring”, but if you practice your scales right you will quickly learn new techniques, improve your intonation and will activate muscle memory!
After a few weeks of practice, you will never want to go back to life without scales! 🎻
In this workshop I will show you exactly which scales to practice in each stage of learning the violin. We will directly practice the scales together on Zoom. After the workshop you can expect to have a solid scales routine ready for the coming months. 😍

Finger Speed & Strength Masterclass
Ever wondered why your fingers just won’t move fast enough?
This workshop is for you! Especially adult beginners are often afraid that their fingers can just “not move as fast anymore”. But nothing is further from the truth! If you approach your fast passages smart and with determination, anyone can learn how to play faster.
In this workshop we will go over the best finger exercises for speed & strength. Plus, you will learn 3 “secrets” to playing fast on the violin.
