Private Violin or Viola Lessons in Your Home

Our private violin and viola lessons focus heavily on proper instrument technique as well as musicianship. Students receive weekly instruction from highly qualified teachers. All of our teachers focus on proper playing methods to avoid serious wrist, hand and shoulder injuries that can occur from repeatedly poor technique on string instruments.

Our violin teachers are very familiar with popular beginning string method books and the string program in public elementary schools in Irvine and Tustin. We are able to work alongside what your child is learning in school if they are involved in a group class.

Scales and other technical studies are always included in lessons because they are an important part of developing excellent technique.

All students taking violin lessons are invited (but not required) to perform in recitals regardless of level or age.
