CelloChanWoods is a unique music camp for young cellists. Its holistic approach to cello playing combines the fun of summer music camp with a retreat-like atmosphere. Relaxation classes, master classes, individual supervised practice, and beginning meditation start off the day. Adults are welcome as day participants.
A cello student who experiences CelloChanWoods will leave with greater mental clarity and a deeper understanding of the difference between force and power in cello playing. They will gain more confidence in themselves as well as in their ability to play. This retreat teaches many things including creative practicing and understanding the musical phrase, as well as the importance of being centered at the cello.
