Aug 11-13; 10a-12p
For students ages 12-18 with at least 2 years of lessons. For any instrument (except percussion and voice.)

This 3-day intensive is designed for intermediate and advanced students (ages 12–18) who are ready to take control of how they practice—not just how much they practice. Instead of preparing for a performance, students will bring in their current repertoire and learn how to break it down, solve technical challenges efficiently, and retain progress from one session to the next. Through guided sessions and masterclass settings, they’ll be introduced to high-level practice strategies used by serious musicians, including problem-isolation, mental practice, tempo layering, and targeted repetition—tools that immediately translate into faster improvement and greater confidence.

By the end of the camp, students won’t just play better—they’ll understand why they’re improving and how to keep that momentum going independently. This is ideal for students who feel stuck, frustrated, or unsure how to practice effectively at home. The focus is entirely on building long-term skill and independence, giving students a clear system they can apply to every piece they learn moving forward.
