In LEARN VIOLIN IN 90 DAYS violinists will be taken through the exact system that I have used in my own private studio for newbie violinists and better.

How is LEARN VIOLIN IN 90 DAYS better than private sessions? Because you get daily lessons and training as opposed to only 30 minutes a week.

So yes, a lot can be accomplished in 90 days. If you are a newbie to beginner violinist, a returning violinist or even a violin teacher, you will LOVE this program.

Within this 90-day program you will receive systematic video trainings and play-along videos covering violin hold, bow hold, first position playing, note reading, AND a super fun training of Bach for beginners.

This program is for newbies with absolutely no experience playing to beginners. Now, just like my other programs, this will be packed full of education that will take you way beyond the 90 days AND includes training, play-along videos for Bach Minuets, and accompanying scales.

Perfect for absolute newbies to intermediate who want to hone their skills and for all violin teachers and wannabe violin teachers who want inspired fresh new teaching ideas.

Plus it also includes as a bonus my masterclass Music Literacy, How to Read Music, and more ($147). Because note-reading is an imperative part of the violin journey. This includes training videos on how to read music from the page, key signatures, dynamics, basic music theory, etc.

AND of course, all books from the Beginner Violin Bundle will be included which are: Rhythm Studies. Finger Adventures, Beginner Violin Scales, Scale Studies for Suzuki book 1, Notes on the violin, Bach Minuets Scales.

Learn violin in 90 days crash course bundle also includes my masterclass Mastering Fundamentals ($199) to help you set up your violin hold, bow hold, and how to practice intonation and muscle memory in first position using training videos and play-along videos with Finger Adventures.

Once enrolled you will be redirected to create a registration at the studio membership website if you haven’t already.

LEARNING INCORRECTLY AT THE BEGINNING OF YOUR VIOLIN JOURNEY CAN CREATE YEARS OF STRUGGLE AND PAIN.

You will also be able to play three one octave major scales and have all the technical foundation needed for the beginning of your violin journey.

SNEAK PEEK:

As an adult beginner violinist who wants to accomplish everything in a short amount of time, I was overwhelmed looking at the many techniques I need to master to play beautifully. Fortunately, I found Heather and her Violin Journey Mapping Program.

The program helps me focus on my goals, also helps me structure and organize my daily practice session. This is very important for me who started to play violin as an adult.
Aside from the technical aspect, the program also prepares me to be positive throughout my violin journey and appreciate ourselves more.
I think this program is for me to keep for life because every once in a while, I go back the videos and inspiration in the program to help me make sure I am on track.

Heather’s teaching is very organized and clear.

The course was EXTREMELY organized and it is a very useful course, that not only can be translated to one’s violin journey, but in daily life as well.

I’m looking forward to staying focused on my goals and timelines, and now have a clear path to do so.

Music Literacy – How to Read Music and More is designed specifically for violinists.  It is an ideal program for newbie to beginner violinists wanting to learn how to read music as it relates to the violin. Perhaps you were never taught or never learned how to read music and you only know how to play by ear. Perhaps you know the basics of reading notes but need help with key signatures, how to build major and minor scales from specific key signatures. In this program, note-reading music is broken down in simple steps with 32 strategically placed training videos with a checklist to track your progress. to facilitate fluency as fast as possible. This self paced course includes 10 Modules plus 2 Bonus Modules which includes a 30 minute sight reading workshop video and 11 video collection for teaching music reading and 3 BONUS E-Books to practice and implement your new found note reading skills.

Music Theory is extremely important for all musicians; however, for some reason it is one of the most underrated topics ever taught in violin lessons especially in private violin studios. I started with piano before violin and had my note reading underway at 5 years of age but not everyone has this type of exposure. I love reading music and teaching reading music. Music theory is truly imperative to learning pieces well and really understanding them on a deeper level.

This course will give you the skills to read music and basic music theory skills to start to theoretically analyze your current pieces.

Music Literacy is a must have program for all violinists that do not know how to read music, do not have access to a teacher to teach them to read music or are working with a teacher that doesn’t stress note reading or basic music theory.

“I wanted to learn to play the violin so I signed up to be a student of Heather. My goal is to be able to sight read music on the fly!

I have gone thru Music Literacy: How to Read Music and More many times. Because of this course, I now can read violin music.

I can also read music for my guitar, bass, and piano. Before this course, I always played by ear. Reading music cuts down on my time when learning a song. It has taught me a lot about dynamics, note value timing and how to play the song I want to learn the way it is written in Treble and Bass Clef.  Heather is a very good teacher! I hope this course will help you also.”

I just started watching the videos, including the teacher training and all I can say is I am so glad you made this course available.

Even though I have a local teacher and she is fantastic helping me (as an adult beginner) having access to the videos/lessons is priceless. Thank you Heather

Once enrolled, you have immediate access to Heather’s Private Facebook Study Group to ask questions for close communicaton with Heather and other violinists in the Studio.

I’m so glad you want to know a bit about who I am. I always tell people who ask me how to determine who to study from that it is always good to investigate your teacher’s education. When you learn or study from someone, they will pass down information they recieved from their education mixed with personal experience.

The training you receive from me is filtered through a lifetime of studying and playing the violin (and piano.)

My education consists of a Bachelor of Music in Violin Performance from the University of Colorado at Boulder. I have had the opportunity to study from what I consider the best teachers in the world including Takacs String Quartet, concert violinist Rachel Barton Pine and Harold Wippler (teacher of Eugene Fodor, the first American to place in the Tchaikovsky competition.)

I have to warn you some people will tell you they studied with famous teachers even if it was just one lesson or masterclass they attended. My herstory is that I studied and trained years with these amazingly talented violinists.

While in the States, I won auditions for Wisconsin Philharmonic and the sublist for Milwaukee Ballet. I played professionally in over 25 different Stateside symphonic, opera and chamber orchestras from Chicago to Green Bay, Wisconsin to Des Moines, Iowa to Springfield, Illinois as section violin, principal second, associate concertmaster and concertmaster before performing in Europe.

Currently, I perform in Bulgaria with the Yambol Chamber Orchestra “Dianapolis.”

My students have won concerto competitions, placed as concertmasters and performed at Carnegie Hall.
