Qualified Violin Teachers


Our violin teachers are fully accredited professionals who specialise in violin and string technique. They bring deep knowledge of string pedagogy and genuine passion for helping you improve.

Image

Individual Instruction


Every violin lesson is one-on-one, giving you the individual focus that violin demands. Your teacher can address subtle issues with posture, bow hold, and intonation immediately.

Strong Foundations


Strong foundations are everything on the violin. We take the time to get posture, bow hold, and intonation right from lesson one. Students who build good habits early progress faster and further.

Performance Ready


Performance is where violinists truly grow. Our Rock Show and ensemble workshops give you the chance to take your violin from the practice room to the stage. Playing for an audience is deeply rewarding.

Violin Styles We Teach


CLASSICAL & CONTEMPORARY

We cover all violin styles — from classical through to folk, Celtic, bluegrass, jazz, and contemporary. We tailor your repertoire and technique work to your musical interests. 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.
