"Jump Start Your Violin Playing With The Revolutionary Beginner Violin System"

The fastest, easiest, most complete "beginner violin lessons" video training ever created... will totally transform your success with playing the violin

Dear Friend,

If you're reading this, it's pretty certain you have an inborn affinity for the violin. I do too. For me it's partly the heart and soul-penetrating tone, partly the thrill of playing the greatest music ever written, and partly the super-conscious state I'm in while playing. In short, of all the activities I've enjoyed in my life, none has held a candle to the depth of experience I've had from playing the violin.

There has never been a better time than RIGHT NOW to begin realizing your dream of being 'a player.'

I have performed on the soundtracks of well over 1000 movies, often as concertmaster, and toured worldwide as soloist and chamber musician which has helped me learn what it takes to become a great violin player and I'm going to teach you exactly what I've learned.

I have developed several best-selling video training courses on violin playing geared toward beginner, intermediate and advanced players. I receive numerous emails a day from satisfied customers around the world about the great strides they have made in their playing as a result of working with my programs.

The Beginners Circle program is the result of 35 years of my personal experience. It was designed from the ground-up to be the ultimate solution for new violinists. It includes practical advice and step-by-step lessons that cover all the essentials.

To Your Success As A Violinist,

Clayton Haslop

P.S I am completely confident that this system will work for you, that I've added an ironclad 60-day money back guarantee, so you can give it a try with nothing to lose.

The 3 Biggest Myths About Learning The Violin

The largest and most unfortunate myth is that you must begin to study at a very young age to 'get any good at it.' Well, let me tell you something. That is a lot of unmitigated bull, and I ought to know.

In my four decades of playing and teaching the violin I've worked with many, many fine players who picked up the instrument for the first time as an adult. The secret to their success may be found in the creative use of the mind to learn the skills required. In a nutshell, many adults have allowed the greatest tool we carry in our brain - imagination - to atrophy.

Once the creative mind is reawakened and focused using the innovative techniques I will share with you, results appear like magic.

Myth Number 2 concerns the ability of the adult body to adapt to the basic playing position. Well just consider this, have you seen what 'grown-ups' are accomplishing in yoga studios around the world these days?

In exactly the same way, the secret to mastering the violin playing position as an adult is one of relaxation. Maxwell Maltz, founder of Psycho-Cybernetics, said - "Once difficult, now easy." And when you know the relaxation inducing power of proper breathing, the 'once difficult' will seem a distant memory.

Finally, Myth Number 3 concerns the amount of time you must dedicate to practicing. Naturally the more you practice the more rapidly you can improve. Problem is, many students, young and old alike, don't know how to practice correctly. As a result, they waste a great deal of time - time that COULD be spent improving their technique.

You can accomplish a great deal in as little as an hour a day of focused practice. And by focused I'm talking of practicing which leaves you feeling more relaxed, energized, and excited to be alive than when you started.

Chances are, once you're fully in the 'playing habit' you'll be sad when your allotted practice time ends each day.

Here's What You're Going To Get With This Online Violin Training System...

The Beginners Circle is a revolutionary way to learn to play the violin. This program is the most complete and comprehensive beginner violin home-study course ever to be created. Everything you need to become a great violinist is included in this training program.

Countless hours were spent outlining and revising the system to make sure it included absolutely everything that you will need. It doesn't matter if you are a complete beginner or if you've already learned some of the basics. This violin system will take you through the stages of mastering the violin.

The way I'm going to do that is by delivering videos online every month for you to download to your computer, where I walk you through the process of becoming a great violin player.

Each month, I'm going to send you one module which will contain four professionally-filmed high definition videos (one for each week) with me teaching you my beginner violin system.

Inside each training video you will receive highly focused violin lessons with practice assignments and along with these training videos you will receive music and written PDF notes to accompany the lessons.

All videos will be available for you to download and you can then transfer them to Ipod or DVD. You can follow along at your own pace while in the comfort of your home.

All you need to use is your internet connection and you can begin downloading each monthly module of the program onto your computer immediately.

Read What Others Have To Say...

 

 
 

"It just wouldn't be right not to share with you the happiness I experienced with my violin practice today. I can't believe the difference in my playing since I got your Beginner's Circle.

"The lessons floored me. I can't believe the things you covered. You went over all the things I needed. No other violin teacher has ever covered the basics like you do.

"In the whole 5 years I've been playing, I've never felt confident, or in control of my playing, finger placements, etc. I can't believe what I've acquired in such a short time with you. You are the greatest, thanks so much!"

Dyan Raymond

Dear Clayton,

"This has been wonderful. I can't wait to finish the dishes and get the violin out. The magic is back---. I will endorse this series to anyone. In our small towns, there are not too many violin teachers. We have to drive to Milwaukee or Chicago to study with a world class teacher.

(If you have ever driven the Dan Ryan Expressway, you know that all good vibes and transcendence acquired from a teacher evaporates while dealing with rush hour :- )

We are blessed with a resource and conduit in the person of Clayton. (I think I will skip the dishes and practice!)"

Lizbeth Getman

Mr. Haslop:

"We want to thank you again for your teaching. The way your teach not only shows you are a great teacher, but also a kind hearted person with a kindled spirit.

The insights you put in the news letter and course greatly inspire us and I can see my daughter playing with a bigger sound, counting better, and vibrating better... We will stay tuned to hear your new ideas."

Sincerely,

Yiqun Ding
Wellington, CN

 
 

 

 
 

Dear Clayton:

I've reviewed your teaching and performing course which I ordered recently, and I'm very blessed to have you as my violin teacher at this stage of my life. I was a scholarship student of the late Mr. Berl Senofsky at Peabody. Thank you and God bless you and your family!"
