Group Harp Classes in January 2026

Welcome to 2026!

Let’s begin the new year with a burst of beautiful harp vibrations! I have been wanting to give these classes for a while now, and I am so excited to share them with you.

We know that playing in a harp circle is nourishing and divine, (mmm hmmm…) and now, let’s take that forward by bringing in solid technique foundations to help shape your hands and make you feel even more confident on the strings.

Once we’re warmed up, we’ll have a sharing circle Open Lesson. Kind of like a masterclass, but without the hype. I look forward to holding a space for query and discussion, sharing my 40+ years of harp experience to help you master your musical challenges.

There will be two group classes each Monday evening in January.

All levels, musical styles, and harp sizes welcome!

6:30-7:15 pm - Harp Circle Warm-Up.

Learn the fundamentals of harp technique with expert guidance in a fun, musical, ensemble experience.

Staying fit on the harp is important. It makes everything else so much easier, and it helps you to progress. In this session, we’ll work through techniques of the harp in a way that feels and sounds good. Warm up while having fun. Play at your own level as part of a group. Ask questions and receive guidance on your body and hand positions. Learn tips on how to make playing easier.

7:30-8:30 pm - Open Lesson

A nurturing and safe place to share your harp journey among friends. Many harpists learn online or alone; it can help to check in with a live teacher from time to time.

Receive expert guidance on a piece that you’re working on. This might be a notated piece that you can never quite get through without stumbling, or it might be something you’re learning by ear and can’t quite figure out. Sharing doesn’t have to be perfect at all. This class is a great opportunity to practice something you aspire to play confidently with guidance. Listening to others work through challenges, and joining in discussions is a great way to boost your musical learning.
