Violin Lounge Academy has been amazing!

Violin Lounge Academy has been amazing! I am in the Bow like a pro programs as well as the Paganini's Secret, Bach, and even the 4 seasons side class. Probably some others as well. I've been using these programs for a few years now. They have all been amazing! There is enough material to keep me busy for many years to come, and I have been able to send in videos and get very clear, very thorough feedback videos returned. I also like that you can watch other's videos too, so you can learn from theirs as well. So much music in the library, it's all included so you don't have to go buy any elsewhere. I am in an orchestra now, and have gotten many compliments on my bowing technique being impressive for only a 4 year student if the violin. I highly recommend these programs. They are all wonderful and rich with material to keep you learning!

Top notch content

Top notch content - both free and paid (I use both). A really crucial and unique resource for the violin community - especially for adult leaners like me. Keep up the excellent work!

I have learned so much joining this program.

I have learned so much joining this website and taking the Violin Lounge program. I have honestly become better at my instrument. My family have also noticed how much I have improved. Having taken these programs for quite sometime, I highly recommend these programs.

Look no further than the Violin Lounge.

When I was starting out and looking for advice on how to improve and develop my skills I came upon the Violin Lounge. Zlata is such an excellent communicator and her advice is always so praçtical - recognising that every person is unique and that one size does not fit all when it comes to playing a violin. She has so much expertise, experience and musicality to offer and I think she is one of the best available. I am a professional musician (violin was a fairly recent addition to my skill set) and I would not hesitate to recommend the Violin Lounge to any player at any level.

Programs are all content rich and thoughtfully explained in extensive detail. The accompanying videos are high quality. Living in the USA, I found Zlata and her team to all be fluent and very articulate in English.

Over a decade of good value

I made my first purchase - the vibrato course, over 10 years ago and I still use these techniques in my studio today. I recently purchased the Bow Like a Pro course and I love that it has no expiration date and I can revisit as often as I like.

Invaluable for Adult Violin Students!

I stumbled across Violin Lounge a few years back when I was struggling to grasp what my teacher was talking about for a flexible bow hold. I was thrilled that here was finally an in-depth, step by step guide to fix my awful bowing. I have always been helped with the content that I have learned from Violin Lounge, and I really think that if I had not come across this site I would have given up on trying to learn violin as an adult. Thank you, Violin Lounge!

Zlata is a very professional ENABLER not just a professional teacher. The fact that she can make her videos available is a great credit and the content must not be under estimated to those of us of advancing age ! Many Many thanks

Zlata's sharing

One of my bandmates saw Zlata's website and recommended it to me. (A gentle nudge?) I have enjoyed Zlata's sharing of her techniques which hopefully I am beginning to apply in my fiddle playing. Thank you Zlata!

Zlata's beginner course perfect for older players

As an older learner Zlata's beginner course got me back into playing violin again. I find Zlata's website to be very beneficial, not just geared to child/young adult learning. Twinkle and its variations may be good for little kids the various pieces in the beginners course are more practical for an older adult.

Really good for when I started out

As a total beginner I found Violin Lounge's free tutorials and advice invaluable in my quest to become a violinist. That was three years ago and I still refer back to the Lounge for advice and music. I would love to be able to take part in the courses but I don't read music well and would find them very hard. But at present I can call myself a violinist and that is a really good feeling.

I am not a violinist

I am not a violinist, but a composer with some experience of the violin and viola, but not enough to write music which is easy (meaning that it does not go against the grain) for these instruments.
