violin, technique, musicality, and performance anxiety management lessons

From 32.14 £ /h

Typical Lesson Layout: Every session lasts one hour. The lesson starts with the student performing the material prepared during the week, followed by collaborative work. If the student has specific doubts, we skip the initial review and focus directly on those questions.
Teaching Techniques & Methods: Focus on technique, musicality, body relaxation while playing, and learning to truly enjoy the music. Furthermore, if the student simply needs to discuss topics related to performance anxiety or stress, we can dedicate the entire lesson exclusively to finding mental strategies.
Key Traits as a Teacher: Focusing on body awareness and physical sensations helps improve both mental and physical comfort to unlock a better, more natural sound.

About Me

I love working in absolute peace and harmony. Music must be a pleasure for the listener, but above all, for the person playing it. It is a powerful medium for self-expression; I love to play when I feel deep emotions like anger or love, because music is the ultimate way to channel and express what we feel. Your lessons with me are a safe space: if there is a day when you simply do not feel like playing, we can always step back and spend the time talking, focusing entirely on how to manage anxiety and stress.

Sara is a Serbian-Italian violinist born in Florence. She graduated with highest honors from the Scuola di Musica di Fiesole, enriching her training through masterclasses with Pavel Vernikov, Svetlana Makarova, Klaidi Sahatçi, Barnabás Kelemen, and many others.

Having connected with so many different teachers and students throughout my career, I have gathered a deep wealth of techniques. I teach you how to approach not only the challenges of music itself, but also how to experience your instrument in the most joyful way possible. As a teacher once told me, "the violin is our friend."

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

I offer music theory lessons with a fully personalized learning plan, designed according to each student's goals, interests, and needs.

During the lessons, I cover theoretical content combined with practical exercises that support understanding and retention. Theory is not taught as something purely descriptive; instead, I always aim to connect it to the instrument and musical practice, showing how it serves as an essential tool for artistic expression and music-making.
