We are String Insiders.

String Insiders doesn’t want knowledge of the string world to be exclusive information. The idea of “learning by doing” is not only outdated, but wastes so many people’s time. Why make the same mistake so many others are making? Instead, we believe in opening conversation so you can learn from those that have already been through it.

We also don’t think that students can only become successful musicians if they went to Curtis or Juilliard and won several competitions. In fact, if success is being happy, helping others, and having a healthy income, we believe all musicians can accomplish that. We’re here to help you figure out exactly how through our flagship programs. Hint: it starts online!

Our Programs

We host live programs throughout the year as well as static resources and programs you can join any time! 

Private Coaching
