Denholm ’s violin classes in Japantown made learning feel way less overwhelming and a lot more enjoyable. she explained tough techniques in a simple way, helping me move from beginner pieces to more challenging intermediate ones.

Life was boring until I didn't met Denholm at Wynwood, my violin tutor. her guidance made my journey of learning the violin very easy and fun.

Seeing my son now lead her school choir on violin in Wilmington reflects the positive impact Denholm ’s guidance had on her musical growth.

The violin lessons with Denholm was for my teenage daughter. Denholm gives her students the freedom to choose the pieces they want for learn but still focusing on the techniques and strengthening them. My daughter is now able to compose small tunes all by herself and Denholm has genuinely helped her fall in love with music. Thank you Denholm for everything!
