I commonly refer to Keegan as my "tiny employee." Although he technically is not, I am teaching him the value of sharing gifts simply because it's a kind and generous thing to do.

I am simultaneously teaching him the value of making a consorted effort to produce something and in turn be compensated in the form of currency.

Through our daily practice, now which can often times include video recording, we are creating solid habits, teaching valuable life skills and creating fond memories.

He "earns" certain toys and treats that we provide for him.

I decided to create this "just because" general support tier just for him in case any of his internet aunties and uncles would like to reward him for his willingness to co-create this resource platform with me.

By pledging your support of $1.50 per month, you'll receive regular updates and cameos by Keegan to acknowledge you and what your support means to him.

Weekly Violin Basics

/ month

Join

At this level, you’ll have access to weekly pre-recorded instructional videos with just me.

I present and demonstrate fundamental concepts for the young beginner in small, basic and simple to implement concepts.

What makes violin challenging is translating the visual into tactile, sensory experiences, which is not intuitive. I specialize in simplifying key components of violin playing, which if not learned correctly at the beginning stages, can cause issues later in the learning process.

I help set the beginner up with a strong foundation for success.

Violin Lessons In Motion

$10

/ month

Join

In addition to the first tier benefit of weekly access to the fundamental foundational videos, this tier gives you even MORE access.

Lessons in Motion gives you a behind the scenes look at what it’s like to teach and practice with your child or student on a regular basis.

The videos will show me demonstrating concepts and best-practices with my young son. You will see and witness the language I use to redirect his focus, and skills I use to keep him on track without breaking his spirit.

You will learn how to keep lessons and practice engaging so your child or student remains consistent with their commitment to practice regularly.

These videos are stored for future reference, so even as he ages, you will have archives from when he was very young.

Watch Me Practice and Play!

$20

/ month

If you enjoy violin and want to see behind the scenes footage of what it takes to make beautiful music on the instrument, watch me practice scales, exercises and current pieces while enjoying the unfolding process.

This is the place where wrong notes are appreciated and tone experimentation is encouraged. You get to be a fly on the wall and witness what an artist has to do to maintain and master their craft.

Looking into ASMR, an acronym for Autonomic Sensory Meridian Response, I realized the tingling sensations from my scalp through my spine actually happen while I’m playing or listening to violin. I’ve found this too, happens with others while listening!

While I don’t experience that sensation anywhere else like with chewing, whispering, tapping or brushing my hair, I do find it quite relaxing and peacefully stimulating to play and listen.

In connecting with others who love violin and frequency alignment, the violin range resonates with the energy centers of the heart, throat and subconscious.

This tier is for the violin lover who appreciates witnessing the process of growth beautifully.

Live Online Private Lesson (60 minutes)

$60

/ month

Join

Private online lessons are accessible through this tier!

If you find that a little more hands-on instruction with skillful eyes and ears is needed, we can set up a live virtual lesson to work out the challenges.

After working with the foundation basics and implementing best-practices with your child or student, this is what you’ll select to book a private lesson.

Lessons would be held once per month and are 60 minutes. They will be used in tandem with the other tiers.
