About

Hello,

My name is Amy Pikler, and I am passionate about teaching violin, viola, and recorder to students of all ages. Whether you're a beginner or looking to refine your skills, I'm here to help you reach your musical goals.

One on One Lesson Services:

In person lessons for violin, viola, and recorder (must be located inside of San Antonio, Texas)

I offer in person lessons at my apartment and do not travel to your location unless it is located within the North Star Mall area

PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME ABOUT IN PERSON LESSONS UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO COMMUTE TO ME OR I CAN TEACH YOU AT YOUR LOCATION NEAR NORTH STAR MALL!

IF YOU ARE LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE LOCAL AREA, I CANNOT TEACH YOU IN PERSON UNLESS YOU ARE WILLING TO COMMUTE TO ME

Online lessons for violin, viola, and recorder (CAN be located outside the local area)

Additional Online Instruction Option

Also, for students with at least one year of playing experience, located either inside or outside of San Antonio, I exclusively offer an online technique course and masterclass focusing on essential instrumental techniques such as left-hand position and bowing straight. This course is effective for different learning styles and increases effectiveness of individual practice sessions which will help you reach your desired goals and results faster. If you enroll in the course, you will have ongoing access to the course content, be able to track your progress with a progress tracker, and have access to direct feedback sooner than in weekly private lessons.

Online Program Trial Option

I will offer a free two week trial of my online program as long as you are a current one on one private student. After the two week trial, payment in full will be due or you will need to enroll in one of my payment plans. Failure to make payment on a payment plan for the online program will result in loss of access to the online program.

Experience:

I have over five years of experience teaching music, and I tailor my methodology to align with each student's unique goals.

About Me:

I'm also a musician in the San Antonio Philharmonic, bringing a wealth of experience and expertise to my teaching. I have performed with other major symphony orchestras including the Grand Teton Music Festival Orchestra, Fort Worth Symphony, Utah Symphony, and Chicago Symphony. My father, Charles Pikler, was principal violist of the Chicago Symphony for many years.

Please contact me directly if you are interested in working with me, and I will get back to you ASAP!

    Amy has exceeded our expectations of a viola teacher. She has high standards while still being a source of encouragement. My son looks forward to his lessons and being stretched musically by Amy. She is also an excellent communicator. We recommend her services.

    What I like most about Amy’s studio is her style of teaching. She is a lovely combination of extremely kind and patient but also technically exacting. I have made such huge strides in my playing. She is absolutely the best violin teacher I’ve ever had.
    If you are serious about the violin or viola, Ms. Pikler is teacher for you.

    Amy is an outstanding teacher and musician! She has helped my teenaged son improve his technique and prepare for various auditions. She is very patient and attentive to the student’s needs.
