"If you are on the fence about violin lessons - definitely give Lulu a try. She has a knack for making her students feel relaxed and at ease, and is very responsive to what you want to work on and the kind of music you want to play. I gave up violin at one point and thought I might never play again, then started having Balkan and Klezmer lessons in August 2021 and now it's the highlight of the week!" - Nick Trapp
