What people are saying?

After performing with professional orchestras for over a decade, my playing became stiff and tight which resulted in muscle problems and considerable suffering while I was playing.  I found yoga to be helpful but it didn't change my playing.  When I began taking lessons with Michele, I couldn't believe the sound I was producing with little physical effort.  It was free, deep and sonorous.  She teaches a holistic approach to playing and it works!!  Using the body the way it is meant to be used produces a beautiful sound with no physical suffering and a lot more enjoyment.  Michele is a wonderful teacher and all musicians of any age and any level would benefit greatly from her knowledge.  It will change your performing and how you think of playing.
