Learn the Violin as an Adult

If you’re on this page, I’m going to presume that you’re a complete beginner with no musical experience and you’re interested in getting started with your violin journey.
Or perhaps you’re here because you’ve already tried to learn the violin but can’t seem to reach that break-through moment in your violin practice.
Maybe you’re a busy professional who wants to take on a new challenge, or perhaps you’re retired or semi-retired – you have a bit more time on your hands and would like to learn a meaningful new skill.

You’re tired of procrastinating, of dreaming, of wanting to start the violin “someday”.
You’ve been delaying your whole learning journey because you have no idea where to begin or whether or not it’s even something you could do.

If that’s the case, I can help.
I’ll provide the support, structure and strategy for you to use to become an independent, self-directed learner in weeks; to start producing a beautiful sound on the violin in weeks, not years.

It’s really important to me that you feel confident and at ease when taking my course. That’s why I offer a full, no-questions-asked money-back guarantee. So even in the worst case scenario, if you give it a go and decide it’s not the right fit, you’ll still walk away having learned something – at no cost to you.

My name is Brendan Garde. I’m a professional violinist with over a decade of performing and teaching experience. I hold a Bachelor of Music Degree from the Royal Northern College of Music and graduated with Best Taught Masters Award for my Master’s in Music Performance from MTU Cork School of Music.

The Benefits (and Challenges) of Learning Violin as an Adult

I’ve drawn from my own learning under world-class mentors, my career as a professional violinist, my bachelor’s and master’s degrees, and my many years teaching beginners and experienced players – I’ve used this experience to craft the approach that turns adult learners into confident musicians.

If you’re thinking “it’s too late for me to learn the violin”, or “I’m too old to learn…”, you’re not alone.
Most adult beginners share these same exact fears.

However, as an adult you have some big advantages that you may not be aware of – adults have a greater capacity to grasp and apply concepts compared to children. And all violin technique can be explained and understood using simple language – it may sound like a magical instrument but at the end of the day it’s mostly down to physical inputs, and gaining and applying the right knowledge effectively.

A crash-course style approach enables you to leverage this ability to comprehend concepts to jump-start your journey so you will achieve an efficient and highly rewarding start to your musical experience.

You might be thinking…
“That’s great for other people, but –
– I’m starting too late.
– I’ve already tried learning on my own.
– I’ve done lessons with a local teacher and didn’t get far.
– I’m not sure I’d be confident learning online.
– I don’t even have a violin yet!”
I hear this all the time – and I promise, you’re not alone.

You don’t have to take my word for it.
In fact, all of my course students have had at least a couple of the same thoughts before they started too. But, those quickly subsided when, after just a few sessions, they’re reading sheet music (with zero prior experience), tuning their violin independently, easily identifying problems and solutions in their violin playing, and playing with confidence.
You can be in that position too.

Your job is simple.
Learn how the violin works, apply fundamental techniques during strategic practice sessions, gain control over your violin progress.
So what are you waiting for? Schedule a relaxed, no-pressure chat with me to find out if this is the right next step for you.

As soon as you have enrolled, you will start your one-to-one highly personalized, high-touch learning journey that will set you up for optimal, enjoyable learning on your own terms and at your own pace
If you don’t yet have an instrument, I’ll guide you on how to choose one that’s right for you.

And remember, I offer a 100% money-back guarantee.
I want to work with people who feel supremely confident in what they’re investing in. I want them to jump in with two feet. To remove any worries you may have, I offer a full money back guarantee to every course student, no questions asked.
For this reason, I’m pretty picky with my students; I only work with people I am confident are a great fit for the course and will achieve their goals. It also means my students can explore the course and commit to their learning in a risk-free way.

But availability is limited.
I pride myself on providing the absolute best service to my clients, and I can only do that for a small number of people at a time. That’s why I only let a set number of new clients in per month, so that I can uphold such a high standard of service.

I make that promise to you, just like I’ve made it to my other clients, so for the above reasons, I will be removing my course from sale when my client book fills. So don’t wait to join me on a discovery call to find out if this is right for you.
