Introduction: Hi! I'm Alison MacHaffie and I teach woodwind instruments, with flute being my primary instrument. I received my B.A. in Music Education from West Virginia University in 1997, then went on to study for an M.A. in Ethnomusicology at the University of California, Santa Barbara in 2001. I have also studied music therapy and integrate music as therapy into the direct support work that I've been doing with people with disabilities since 2003. My teaching style is fun, while also holding my students accountable. I love working with students of all ages and abilities. I really enjoy seeing my students learn and grow, and benefit from the healing that music brings into their lives. **Free** first lesson!
