Learners must have an appropriate size violin, bow & shoulder rest. Pencil & paper may be helpful if learners want to write anything down, although I will post all work in the classroom after each class. Amazon link for violin finger tapes: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=violin+finger+tape&ref=nb_sb_noss_1 There are a variety of options - you can either purchase a big sticker (please get the correct size for your learner's violin!) or individual tapes that you measure to apply. Either will work just fine for this class.
