Flute 360 | Episode 257: "A Holistic Approach to Music Making with Emma Shubin"

Body movement in music performance is often a hotly debated topic.

We may find ourselves inquiring, "Is my movement getting in the way of my performance?" or "Do I need more movement in order to avoid looking stiff or robotic?"

Emma Shubin's answer to this argument is simple.

Since recently beginning her Ph.D. at the University of Luxembourg, Emma has dived into research on how music and movement affect instrumental learning in the early years. She strives to support the idea that movement is a tool waiting to be accessed through the embodiment of our whole authentic selves.

Emma's words will inspire you to reimagine your approach to music-making.

Flute 360 | Episode 253: "Making a Point to Build Professional Relationships with Nestor Torres"

In today's episode, Nestor Torres and Heidi Kay Begay talk about what it takes to build genuine professional relationships. Why does this matter? It matters, because we as individuals cannot be successful on our musical journey alone. We need people.

Whether you identify as an introvert or as an extrovert, you can build your networking skillset. Now don't think that "networking" is a negative word; it's not. Replace the word with "building relationships" instead. Does that feel more aligned with you? If so, give it a try! Reach out to at least five new people every week. Before you know it, you've expanded your orbit, and this is where the magic happens!

Find the win/win for everyone involved, and from these relationships amazing opportunities unfold for both parties. Think about what you can create together! A new music course, summer camp, composition, concert series, or…? The sky is the limit! Shoot for the moon! Even if you don't reach it, that's okay because you'll land among the stars!

Join us for our next Flute 360 Accelerator Program meetup! It's scheduled for Saturday, July 29, 2023 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM / CT!
