Qualified Violin Teachers


Each of our violin teachers is an accredited professional with years of violin teaching behind them. Accredited through AMEB, Rockschool, and ANZCA, they make learning violin a rewarding, confidence-building experience.

Individual Instruction


Private lessons are the gold standard for learning violin — and that's how we teach. Every lesson is shaped by what you need to work on next, ensuring correct technique from the very first lesson.

Image

Strong Foundations


We emphasise proper technique, posture, and musicianship from day one. Building strong fundamentals early prevents bad habits and creates players with the skills to tackle any repertoire.

Image

Performance Ready


Through our live performance program and yearly Rock Show, violin students gain the chance to share their music with a live audience and learn to play with other musicians. Performance builds confidence that goes far beyond music.

Violin Styles We Teach


CLASSICAL & CONTEMPORARY

Our violin lessons span every major genre — from Baroque classics to folk, jazz, and everything in between. Your lessons are always shaped by the music you want to play. Ensemble workshops are also available for students who want to learn collaborative playing.

Classical Violin

Master the rich classical repertoire from Baroque through modern composers. Learn proper classical technique, interpretation, and performance practice. Perfect for students pursuing AMEB examinations, orchestral playing, or chamber music.

Contemporary Styles

Explore violin in folk, Celtic, bluegrass, jazz, rock, and contemporary settings. Learn improvisation, playing by ear, and how to adapt violin to modern musical contexts.

Ensemble Playing

Through our workshops, violin students learn to play with other instruments, developing the listening skills and blend needed for chamber music, orchestras, and contemporary ensembles.

Whether your goal is classical mastery or contemporary exploration, we provide the technical foundation to play any style.

PERFORMANCE OPPORTUNITIES


From Practice to Performance


Learning violin naturally leads to sharing your music with others.
At Manhattan Music School, we provide performance opportunities throughout the year.
