JUNE GUITAR WORKSHOP
at
One Heart Institute
There’s still time to register for the guitar workshop I’ll be giving as part of the One Heart Institute’s summer music program this June 16-30. Open to all ages, participants can attend for the full two weeks or a single week of their choice. This is an intensive, immersion program designed to improve your technical skills, learn more about the arranging process, and develop your performance ability through a combination of lecture demos, masterclasses, one-on-one lessons daily practice time and performance opportunities. I will be assisted by classical guitarist Maya Radovanlija, guitar professor at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis, and together we will cover fingerstyle, classical, and touch on other guitar styles as well. Applications and full details can be found at https://www.oneheartinstitute.org.
The program integrates wellness activities including yoga, tai-chi, meditation, and mindfulness that are intended to benefit musician’s ability to focus and concentrate on the finer points of music. The workshop will be held at the Sudhana Center, a lovely renovated Jesuit convent, where delicious vegetarian meals will be served three times a day. Just a few blocks from School Street in downtown Ukiah, participants are encouraged to explore Ukiah’s Westside and enjoy the friendly small-town vibe. Feel free to contact us at office@degrassi.com should you have specific questions about the guitar program. We hope to see you there!
