Are you an intermediate fiddler who struggles with tight shoulders, arm tension, locked breathing, or inconsistent tone and timing?
Do you feel the music inside you -yet your body sometimes gets in the way?
Fiddle Yoga is a unique six-week method created by award-winning 2024 & 2025 Musician of the Year/Multi-Instrumentalist at the Grand Ole Opry, teacher, and breath-work innovator EJ Ouellette.
