Cello & Confidence: Master Your Instrument and Performance Skills
From 48.23 £ /h
Discover the joy of playing the cello and performing with confidence!
Music is more than just playing the right notes—it’s about expression, creativity, and connection. As an experienced cellist and dedicated teacher, I help students of all levels develop their skills in a way that suits their individual needs and goals. Whether you're a beginner discovering the cello for the first time or an advanced player looking to refine your technique and musicality, lessons are tailored to support your journey.
Lessons focus on:
🎵 Building a solid technical foundation while keeping lessons enjoyable and engaging
🎵 Exploring different musical styles, from baroque to contemporary music
🎵 Developing musical expression and confidence in performance
🎵 Adapting to each student’s learning style and personal goals
In addition to cello lessons, I offer coaching sessions for musicians who want to overcome stage fright and enhance their stage presence. Drawing on my background in music therapy and extensive stage experience, I help musicians feel more at ease and express themselves fully on stage. These sessions incorporate breathing exercises to manage performance anxiety, increase focus, and activate a calm, present state through knowledge of the autonomic nervous system.
To further connect with your instrument, we work on free improvisation—a powerful way to tap into creativity and express emotions through music. This not only helps you feel more connected to your instrument but also deepens your overall musical experience.
Whether you're looking to master the cello or gain more confidence as a performer, I’d love to support you on your musical journey! Feel free to reach out for more details.
