Melanie Haskins Violin Lessons
About
Everyone can learn. I love to share music and empower anyone to play the violin. Music enhances one's life, whether you are 4 years old or 99 years old. As a formally trained violinist and educator, I can serve complete beginners and advanced violinists.
Music always has the potential to bring joy and beauty into lives. I enjoy empowering people to experience music. I love sharing my enthusiasm for music, as well as, the skills that I have developed through my own training and practice.
