YOU'RE AN OVERWHELMED BEGINNER!
Thanks for taking the quiz!
Based on your answers, it sounds like you’re just getting started on playing the violin and feeling a little overwhelmed.
Don’t worry - it happens to the best of us! There’s so much to think about when you’re learning an instrument for the first time - how to position your body, how to make sound with your bow, and what to practice. Learning to play the violin can feel like learning to fly a helicopter!
So, how can you use these results to improve your playing?
One of the first steps to overcoming overwhelm is naming it and creating a plan to move forward. Just by taking this quiz, you are halfway there! Congrats!
I’m here to help you earn your wings and move out of the beginner stage faster with my free Finger Pattern Practice Guide for Mastering the First Position [valued at $60]. Whether you’re taking private lessons or figuring this all out on your own, this guide will help you build muscle memory to play almost any song confidently in the first position.
I’ll reach out in a few days to see if you have any questions. I can’t wait to hear how your practice is going!
Never. Stop. Playing.

Hi! My name is Marlene.
I'm a violinist and teaching artist with over 20 years of experience.
My mission is to empower busy women to rekindle their passion for violin in less than 10 minutes per day!
I have spent over a decade refining my own practice and teaching methods so I can help others improve their playing with the least amount of practice time.
I developed this program to reclaim my power as a violinist, following an unexpected and draining hiatus brought on by a high-stress lifestyle that ultimately led to burnout. Using my 7-Minute Power Routines System, I came out the other side and now I'm here to help you do the same!
