You know something's wrong, but you can't tell what
We find the cause, not just the symptom, and build it back properly.
Bagpipe lessons online Find what's holding your playing back, and fix it.
Most pipers can hear that something isn't right. The hard part is knowing why. I'll teach you to hear exactly where a problem starts, whether it's in your fingers, your pipes, or the way you're shaping the music, and how to fix it.
For solo competitors, pipe band players, and adult learners coming back to the instrument or starting fresh. All lessons are online, so you can learn from wherever you are.
What we can work on
Bring what's bothering you
It takes forever to tune, or you guess at it and it stresses you out
Learn to hear what's out and fix it yourself, quickly and with confidence.
You're playing all the right notes, but they don't feel consistent or predictable
Rhythm and phrasing you can rely on, so your tunes come out the same way every time.
You want to be able to think on the fly, or develop your own style
Finding your own ideas on the instrument, and the confidence to play them.
You have ideas for tunes, but can't shape them into something finished
Building parts that fit together, and writing the tune down so others can play it.
You know there are many things to work on, but aren't sure where to begin
We'll work out what matters most, and give you a clear place to start.
