About Keira
I have over 8 years of experience teaching violin, with a deep passion for Nordic folk traditions. My training includes an Associate of Music in String Performance, with a special focus on styles like Norwegian Fiddle, Swedish Fiddle, and Klezmer. I love helping students explore the rich ornamentation and rhythmic bowing patterns that make these traditions unique. My lessons emphasize ear-based learning, encouraging students to connect deeply with the music by listening and feeling. I use folk jam tracks and drone tuners to create an immersive learning environment. Repertoire-based instruction helps students learn songs that are both meaningful and fun. I believe that playing folk music is not just about technique but about embracing culture and storytelling. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced, I tailor lessons to fit your goals and interests. My teaching style is warm and patient, making learning engaging and enjoyable. Together, we’ll build strong fundamentals while diving into exciting folk tunes. I invite you to discover the beauty of violin through these rich cultural sounds and traditions. Let’s bring these timeless melodies to life and enjoy the journey together. Learning violin can be joyful, expressive, and full of history. Join me, and let’s explore this vibrant world of music.

My teaching approach focuses on helping students develop a natural and expressive vibrato, an essential skill for adding emotional depth to violin playing. I guide learners through exercises that build control over both the speed and width of their vibrato. We work step-by-step to ensure the vibrato feels comfortable and flows naturally from the arm and wrist. By mastering this technique, students can enhance their phrasing and bring music to life with subtle nuances. I provide consistent, clear feedback to help refine each student’s vibrato in a way that suits their individual style. Lessons are tailored to build confidence and ease, especially for those new to vibrato or returning after a break. I focus on practical application, showing how vibrato can shape tone and express mood in different pieces. My approach balances technical precision with musical expression. I’m experienced in working with learners who want to overcome nerves or boost their confidence. Together, we’ll make your playing more vibrant and emotionally compelling. You'll gain the tools to connect deeply with your music and your audience. Every step is about progress and personal growth. My goal is to help you feel comfortable and inspired every time you play. Let's unlock the full expressive potential of your violin sound.
