My personalized approach to violin lessons blends creativity, engagement, and a focus on expressive musicality and technique. I emphasize ear training to enhance students' musical perception. I teach a diverse range of violin styles, including classical, jazz, electric, acoustic, baroque, and fiddle.

When I started classes with Halden , I was a total beginner. I didn't even know how to hold the bow and tune the violin but now it's been a whole 4 months and I can play melodious tunes on the violin. All Thanks to Halden

Halden instruction, I experienced a well-defined yet artistically freeing learning process. She used Romantic-era pieces to help me uncover expressive bow strokes and explained how manipulating tempo can convey feeling. Dedicated work on finger and hand positioning, along with vibrato during sustained lyrical lines, has altered my perception of every tune I play.

The fun yet effective teaching style really boosted my breathing, tone, and pitch during just a few weeks of violin lessons with Halden in Carmel.

Boring violin drills became enjoyable challenges thanks to Halden engaging and fun classes in Hawthorne Neighbours. My daughter was very shy in the beginning but she started opening up after the new pieces she had learned after each lesson and her confidence kept growing.

Warmups with Halden in Haymount is full of fun and energetic and that really helps my kid stay engaged. She’s playing Suzuki songs, bowing more smoothly, and even helped tune her violin this week! I couldn't have asked for more.
