Janesville, WI Flute Lessons

We will work from the bottom up, starting with proper breathing and warm up exercises.
Scale work and technical drills are made fun through games and other means to keep things interesting :)
Repertoire work will be chosen according to experience level after basic assessment, we can work together to find something you enjoy playing.
Basic theory and music history will be addressed naturally as we work through new pieces!

I am more than happy to work on any other music you are currently playing for school or other ensembles.

Let's have fun and work hard!

I have taught all levels of flute.

I am a professional flautist and have taught flute for more than 20 years to students of all age groups. Throughout my years teaching I have also been a part of a multitude of orchestras and chamber groups, held solo concerts, and done recordings for American composers.

During this time I have developed teaching methods and lesson plans starting with embrasure and breathing techniques and leading to strong memorization techniques through scales and arpeggios. I have also prepared students for solo and chamber music recitals, multiple who have gone to national and international level competitions.

I encourage my students to play music of all periods including classical as well as contemporary while keeping the environment of my lessons very friendly and fun.

I look forward to meeting you and teaching you all I have to offer!

I have been playing flute professionally for over six years. My first performance was a production of "Chicago," and it opened up opportunities to play multiple woodwinds in all kinds of contexts.
I am excited to share my passion for this beautiful instrument!

Lessons are student oriented. Our main focus will be to make sure you can play what you want, the way you want to, and reach your personal musical desires.

Instruction available for all ages and skill levels from the beginning child, to the retiree who is returning their instrument to keep the mind sharp, to the student preparing for important auditions, and the young professional looking to maintain a competitive edge.

Learn from a woodwind player who has 15 years of professional performance experience, 10 in the Marine Corps Band field, and a 100% student success rate at the accredited Naval School of Music.

Music lessons should be fun, encouraging and full of music that you love. They are an opportunity to learn something new, show your improvement, and receive correction, encouragement and praise. Students and instructors should play together frequently throughout and the time should be balanced with theory, technique and exercises, sight-reading, and performance and seasoned with introductions to a variety of music and styles. I like to encourage students to play because they love to play and to find the music that is an integral part of their soul, then to share that with others through performance. What do you want to do with or gain from your music? We will work toward your goals.

The hardest part about learning the flute is tone! I have tons of sound exercises that I can show you to help improve your sound by doing them a little bit each day. My main instrument is saxophone, so learning to double on flute has forced me to work on sound constantly. We can also cover technique, scales, single tonguing, double tonguing, and circular breathing. I'm running a $15 special for the month of September! My rate goes back up to $30/30min in October so book now!

I majored in Music Education at West Chester University in Pennsylvania. I have taken a 15 year break from teaching however I have played the flute for over 26 years. Since I am just getting back in to teaching I would prefer to work with beginner to intermediate students. I have 4 children ranging in age from 2 - 13 years old and can teach in my home or yours, whichever you prefer.
