Get back into the swing of things with some Review before you go back to lessons!

In Suzuki violin music, "review" refers to the process of regularly revisiting and playing pieces that a student has previously learned. This practice helps reinforce technical skills, improve muscle memory, and deepen the student's understanding of musical concepts. It is an essential part of the Suzuki method, contributing to the student's overall musical development and proficiency on the violin.πŸŽ»πŸ’‘

In Module 3, "Effective Practice: A Study on REVIEW," we unravel the mystery surrounding Review. It involves rediscovering, honing, and redesigning rather than just replaying pieces. Dive deep into each note, each phrase, and unravel the beauty that might have gone unnoticed. 🌈✨

Ready to unveil the captivating world of Review and practice mastery? Enroll in "the INSIGHT SUZUKI course" and embark on a transformative journey where Review becomes your compass and practice evolves into an art form! πŸ”₯

Applied Mindfulness is the #1 tool to overcome stage fright, by focusing our attention on our body away from the anxious mind. In Insight Suzuki we use these mindfulness techniques to overcome performance anxiety.

Send me a DM if you want to learn more about this techniques and how to manage your stage fright. Details about the upcoming workshop on my bio .albeniz

Did you know that stage fright, also known as performance anxiety, affects musicians of all levels, including world-renowned performers? It's a common experience that can be managed and transformed into a source of empowerment.

Tip 1: Breathe and Center Yourself - Before stepping onto the stage, take a moment to focus on your breath. Deep, slow breaths can help calm your nerves and bring you into the present moment, ready to perform at your best.

Tip 2: Visualization Techniques - Picture yourself performing flawlessly and confidently. Visualization can help rewire your mind to associate the stage with positive experiences, boosting your self-assurance and reducing anxiety.

Tip 3: Embrace the Power of Mindfulness - Incorporate mindfulness practices into your daily routine. Mindfulness exercises such as meditation or body scans can cultivate a sense of calm and increase your ability to stay present during performances.
