I enjoy teaching the Harp, with a focus on connecting to ones inner song. How to play beautiful soulful harp intuitively, and to understand and apply the magic of music theory in a practical simple way.

Finding Light In The Tension
A Journey Through The Modes PTII
About The Workshop:
In this therapeutic harp workshop, we’ll explore the expressive and healing potential of the major 7th scale and the Lydian mode in therapeutic harp playing. These musical textures offer a bridge between sorrow and peace, uncertainty and wonder—gently holding emotional tension while inviting resolution. Together, we’ll engage with these sounds in a practical and heart-centered way, discovering how they can support patients’ inner journeys with warmth, curiosity, and compassion.

HEALING HARP MEDITATION:
Lydian to Major 7th Harp Meditation:
Our dog Naggah loves music, especially the Harp and therapeutic Modes (or so it seems to me).
Here's a video of her chilling with me as I play the Lydian mode.
Fun fact: The video is a YouTube short that automatically loops. I didn't realize this when I first uploaded it and accidentally found myself listening to this little improvisational snippet for 20 minutes while working in the kitchen before I figured out what was happening :)
