"Where words leave off, music begins." — Heinrich Heine

​

Currently Accepting New Students for the 2025-2026 School Year!

 

Since founding my flute lesson studio in 2012, I have been dedicated to

teaching a curriculum that allows students to playfully & confidently learn the flute.

It is a joy to guide students towards an ever increasing sense of musical fluency

 

Each lesson teaches students how to improve their technique — often resulting in increased enjoyment and less struggle. My top priority is to guide students towards a fluent understanding of music interpretation and instrumental technique​​​

​​

I work with students of all ages, abilities, and levels: 

k-12, adults and professionals are all welcome

​

Alexander Technique lessons for instrumentalists are offered, as well!

​

One-on-One lessons are taught in several locations and formats:

​

  • Lesson Studio in Midtown Manhattan by Penn Station (NYC - 10001 zip)

  • In-home in Manhattan, Brooklyn & New Jersey (30-40 min from Penn Station)

  • Occasional in-person lessons and workshops in Palm Beach County, FL

  • Virtually for students around the globe

  • Hybrid -- a combination of in-person & virtual lessons. I will work with you to create a plan that works best for our mutual schedules
     

Our students are invited to participate in events throughout the year, including

our Annual Spring Recital, Virtual and In-person Studio Classes,

and Guest Master Classes / Events

​

Flute Lesson topics cover:

​

  • How to play the flute with ease and confidence

  • Music Theory and Historical Studies

  • Basic Piano Skills

  • Ensemble Repertoire and Orchestral Excerpts

  • time management 

  • the achievement of short & long term goals

  • performance confidence
