FAQs About Violin Lessons
-
How old do you have to be for violin lessons?
Our students can begin violin lessons at age 4, and in fact we find that being able to take care of and hold one’s own instrument made just for one’s size does wonders for a small child’s confidence. As a student grows, his or her finger dexterity improves, but one can begin plucking and bowing immediately.
