Congratulations on deciding to embark on this joyous and
courageous path to discovering your musical gifts
Music is the gateway to a wonderful sense of self expression.

Music Lessons are a powerful way to:
Connect to others
Express yourself fully and creatively
Release stress and tiredness
Sharpen mental focus and acuity
Allow you to live spontaneously in the present moment

So you want to play the Bodhran. 
Bodhran: [Irish Gaelic bodhrán, from Middle Irish bodrán, from Old Irish, from bodar, deaf, deafening.]
The Bodhran is a large Irish frame drum and is played with a wooden stick or a brush which is held in the right hand.

Our students range in age from six to sixties and include all levels, from those who have never played a note before to symphonic players wanting to learn new styles.

Michael Viens has played a wide array of instruments and diverse genres in his many years on and off stage. He began his adventures on the bodhran in 1995 when he joined Vancouver’s stalwart Celtic group, Blackthorn, as a guitarist, vocalist and percussionist. He is wonderfully enthusiastic at backing up Jigs, Reels, and various rhythms for songs. An ideal teacher for taking Bodhran Lessons!!!
