Online Shinobue Lessons
(日本語もOKです。詳しくはこの下のフォームでご連絡ください。)
I recommend shinobue lessons if you:
want to increase the speed of your growth (get better faster).
want to improve your shinobue tone - get rid of airy sound, unreliable notes, harsh kan ons etc. and frustration that come with them
want to get a personalized instruction for your needs, such as a specific song you want to learn, or a specific technique you need help with
want to receive advice on how to buy shinobues, practice methods, which shinobue to use for specific songs etc.
want to get more inspiration and motivation to keep practicing and growing
Why choose miki as your shinobue coach?
