I never thought I would learn violin at 62 but Kieran proved me wrong. We started with simple scales and now I am playing slow waltzes that bring me real joy every week in Sun City Grand.

Kieran ’s lighthearted and calm approach made a big difference in my playing. I had trouble with bow grip before, but it’s now comfortable and instinctive.

Before Kieran showed me techniques that made shifting feel normal, I used to be afraid of it. The increased sound quality is fantastic, and I can now perform in third place.
