For years, I thought practicing was all about deadlines, pressure, and self discipline that I didn't have. Thank goodness I found a different way to think! Now, there's nothing I love more than helping struggling musicians realize that the struggle is not mandatory. Practicing can actually be an empowering, luxurious, artistic pursuit!
If you have big summer practice goals (or want to have big summer practice goals!), I would like to invite you to a closed FB group I have just created. The idea is to have a place where flutists and other musicians can gain inspiration, share practice victories and "ah ha!" moments, and also share practice struggles in a safe, private environment.
Every Monday, from May 16th through August 15th, I'll issue a practice challenge and/or assignment for everyone in the group. Challenges and assignments will be broad enough to suit a variety of different musicianship levels but specific enough to inspire real action! Additionally, I'll check in with the FB group multiple times each week to comment on posts, answer questions, and cheer all of you toward your practice goals!
If you'd like to join, click HERE to see the group page and then click the "join group" button! I'll approve all requests that come in, but reserve the right to delete anyone that is not actively participating in the group and/or posts anything negative.
I'm excited to see what kind of summer practice results a group like this can inspire!
Happy Practicing!

P.S. If you haven't tried the Flute Descant for Sia's Chandelier that I posted a couple of weeks ago, I hope you'll give it a try! If you have tried it and would like to see a video of me playing it along with the YouTube video click HERE.
