Move Free, Play Free

This series of 22 videos is designed to guide you step-by-step to learn how to move more freely to be in service to your music-making. Unnecessary tension can block technical prowess and expressivity, increase anxiety, or lead to strain and injury. Learning to consciously cooperate with the exquisite design of your physical structure and learning to cultivate an inclusive attention can unleash your freest music yet.


Watch the videos in sequence - and feel free to go at your own pace. Each unit begins with an instructional video with foundational information, and each lesson has a shorter Guided Movement sequence accompanying it. Follow the Guided Movement videos to start your practice sessions and when you need to take a break to help reduce tension, ground and focus your performance.
