“ I thoroughly enjoyed [the harp classes] on so many levels. The adult group format is great as we all come to it with different perspectives and different levels of playing. The questions & topics raised by everyone and the conversations that ensued were varied, I found them all very interesting & motivating.”
Group Harp Classes in July 2026
Move your skills forward with technical foundations to help shape your hands and make you feel confident on the strings.
There will be three group classes each Monday evening in July:
5:30-6:15 pm - Beginners
Let’s start from the very beginning. If you’re new to the harp, and maybe new to music altogether, we will take it slow and get you comfortable with the basics.
6:30-7:15 pm - Harp Circle Warm-Up.
Enjoy obsessing over the fundamentals of harp technique with Natalia’s expert guidance. Deepen your intuitive approach to playing music. Learn about different approaches to technique, especially Renie and Salzedo. 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 local harp players learn online or alone; it can help to check in with a live teacher from time to time. All styles, all levels welcome.
Bring along a piece that you’re working on and receive guidance. 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 perhaps you can’t figure out how to play a certain section. Sharing doesn’t have to be perfect at all. In fact, it’s better if it isn’t perfect so that we have something to work with :). This class is a great opportunity to practice playing something you aspire to play confidently. Listening to others work through challenges and joining in discussions is a great way to boost your musical understanding.
Dinner!
Because it’s that time of day, and food and music are so good together, I’ll have dinner available. $5 donation is appreciated.
“It was a good way to be exposed to many ideas due to the different things people are working on, not just oneself... [I was] surprised to find my newly ‘activated’ fingers have continued during the week, resulting in stronger playing.”

“I could see the effects of the class transfer through into my sound healing session and over into my own music teaching. And, I’m now able to play that difficult passage I was having trouble with. ”
