A self-guided 6-week violin reset for busy women who want to fall in love with playing again—without overwhelm.

Maybe you've put your violin aside for too long, and now the thought of diving back in feels daunting.
Life gets busy, and finding time for yourself—and your music—often takes a backseat. If you're struggling with finding the right material, making inconsistent progress, or simply feeling unmotivated to play, you're not alone.
The Violin Bootcamp 6-Week Reset is here to get you unstuck and find joy in your practice again.

After burnout, I almost gave up my dream of being a full-time musician. But I found a way back to my passion, and now, I want to help you do the same.
You don't need endless hours of practice to make meaningful progress.
My 7-Minute Power Routine System is all about targeted, effective practice that fits into any busy schedule. It’s a mindset shift—learning to value quality over quantity, and realizing you can level up without sacrificing time or passion. It’s a proven method that has already helped many women like you reconnect with their creativity and discover their unique sound again.

Hi! My name is Marlene.
I'm a violinist and teaching artist with over 20 years of experience.
My mission is to empower busy women to rekindle their passion for violin in less than 10 minutes per day!
I have spent over a decade refining my own practice and teaching methods so I can help others improve their playing with the least amount of practice time.
I developed this program to reclaim my power as a violinist, following an unexpected and draining hiatus brought on by a high-stress lifestyle that ultimately led to burnout. Using my 7-minute power routines system, I came out the other side and now I'm here to help you do the same!


“I joined the Violin Bootcamp because I had been out of practice for years, and I needed something to get me back in gear. I realized that I had a solid base, but that I wasn’t where I wanted to be. I wasn’t confident playing in front of others. Now, I can say that I happily play in front of audiences, and that I have the skills to pick up a new piece and just play! Thank you for everything you have done for me Marlene ”
Claire Poulin, Ottawa ON

"I needed a productive and time efficient practice method with the accountability to keep me going. The bootcamp along with Marlene's guidance help me strengthen some of the foundational skills I had learned years ago, but had slacked on because of lack of focus and direction. I gained the confidence to record myself regularly and get over some of the performance anxiety I had suffer from when I was studying music years ago in College."
