If you're starting to play for the first time, your priorities will be to get set up with the right instrument, and then understand the core principles of how to play.

How to Get Started with the Violin

Do you have a violin yet? If not, please start with How to Get Started with the Violin. This free course will explain everything you need to know, before getting a violin for the first time.

Even if you already have a violin, you might find it useful to quickly complete this free course, to be sure that your instrument is set up correctly (this is extremely important!)

How to Get Started with the Violin is FREE to access. Signup for a free ViolinSchool account and then click through to the Courses page to get started!

Once you have a violin and you're ready to play, we recommend...

Violin Fundamentals

The Violin Fundamentals course covers all the core techniques of learning how to play. These are the foundational skills that you'll need regardless of how far you go with the violin, including important principles such as how to hold the violin and the bow, how to maintain good posture, how to create a beautiful sound, and other essential bowing techniques.

The Violin Fundamentals lessons are taught entirely by ear, so you don't need to read music in order to get started and begin playing right away.

You can either access the self-paced video lessons, which are available as part of a low-cost monthly membership, or if you would like to access the live classes, then you can register for The Fundamentals for a month of unlimited access to everything ViolinSchool has to offer (including live classes, learning support, and full membership benefits).

Music Fundamentals

Do you read music notation yet? If not, our Music Fundamentals lessons will explain everything you need to do in order to read music fluently to a beginner level and beyond. Access to this course is INCLUDED with a Violin Fundamentals registration, and with ViolinSchool membership.

You'll learn how to read the notes, understand the principles of time, pitch and sound as applied to music, and more. And then you'll be ready to start a full Violin Course!

Once you've completed How to Get Started, Violin Fundamentals and Musical Fundamentals, you'll have reached a solid 'Beginner' level, and you'll be able to move forward with more structured learning.
