I have a very lovely student in Iran who is a violinist. She sent me a message yesterday that rivaled the beauty of the waterfalls I saw in Croatia the same day, because she wrote them from her heart:

“I am really happy and peaceful these days. I have never been like this. I wake up energized and delightful. At night, I sleep peacefully like a newborn.

I practice less than before, but I see better results. More importantly, my practice sessions are a source of peace and happiness for me.

In terms of my audition, I haven't received an answer yet. After a few weeks of thinking, meditation, and practicing the 5 Pre-Pearls [an Art of Freedom® Method practice used as a warmup before any activity]…

…honestly, I am not concerned about the result.

I think this photo shows exactly how I feel these days.”

Mahdis Golestani is learning how to access her personal inner sanctuary that allows her to find peace and joy within herself – regardless of her circumstances – AND improve her musical skills at the same time.

What could be better than THAT for a musician???!!

This is what I'll be teaching in my upcoming 8-week summer program online for professional string players/educators: ‘Sanctuary for Strings: Where Practice Meets Purpose Beyond Technique'.

Curious?

Ask me for details quickly because I've decided to keep this very special program small and intimate with only 12 participants, and nearly all the spots are full.

Registration closes June 5th. Just send me a private message to request info and I'll be in touch!

*** Not a string player or a professional performer/educator? I have a program for you, too – just ask.  ***
