Denmark
A cellist living i Copenhagen, Denmark, I'd love to share with you what I have learned being a professional performer over a decade.
The most important thing to me as a teacher, is to give you, the student, the tools to express what you want: a solid, relaxed technique and natural use of the body. I'm interested in exploring the role of a positive and healthy mental aproach when performing and learning new skills and in my teaching I draw upon extensive experience in performing and auditioning.
Growing up, I myself never had an easy time playing the cello, I was tense and eager to be perfect. But I never gave up on exploring how I could get better, more focused on the right thing, more relaxed and free. And after exploring this professionally for more than a decade, I'm finally in a place where I can say I have tools and experiences to fully express myself and have fun when I play, and I look forward to sharing this with you and support you on your journey!
