We have all levels of musicians in the class, but if you're just starting on an instrument you might find it challenging. More advanced musicians are definitely welcome but you'll need to be OK with learning slowly and with lots of repetition... it's traditional. :-)
The traditional tunes are taught by ear... we won't be using written music in the class.

Many thanks for the generous support of:
Ceol Cascadia Irish Music Association
IRISH FIDDLE - all levels
GUITAR - accompaniment OR fingerstyle (DADGAD)
My private lessons are mostly online using Zoom or Skype, and I also teach at my home studio in Olympia, WA.
In private lessons I'll teach tunes or use tunes you already know to improve rhythm, phrasing and style, which leads into bowing, fingering, and ornamentation.
Occasional lessons - $60 for a 55 minute private lesson
Ongoing lessons: $50 per lesson if you sign up for at least four consecutive weeks and pay in advance.
If you're enrolled in a current series of tune learning classes the cost of an occasional lesson is $50 and a series of 4 is $45 per lesson.
I know that some people are doing well these days while others are not. If you really want to take lessons with me but can't afford my regular prices, please don't let that stop you. Send me an email and we'll work out a lower fee. :-)
