Qualified Violin Teachers


Our violin teachers are AMEB, Rockschool, and ANZCA accredited with extensive experience teaching string instruments. They bring deep knowledge of string pedagogy and genuine passion for helping you improve.

Individual Instruction


Each lesson is a dedicated one-on-one session, giving you personalised attention to develop correct technique from the start. Your teacher can fine-tune your posture, bowing, and pitch accuracy on the spot.

Strong Foundations


We prioritise 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.

Performance Ready


Through our live performance program and yearly Rock Show, violin students gain valuable performance experience and learn to collaborate musically with other instrumentalists. There's nothing like performing live.

Violin Styles We Teach


CLASSICAL & CONTEMPORARY

Our violin lessons span every major genre — from classical through to folk, Celtic, bluegrass, jazz, and contemporary. We tailor your repertoire and technique work to your musical interests. We also offer ensemble opportunities through our workshop program.

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

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