Online violin Lessons with Jenny Bifano — All Ages, Including Adult Beginners to Advanced Players. New in-person lessons beginning in Marin County!

Written By Jenny Bifano

I’m Jenny Bifano, a professional violinist based in Marin County, California, offering violin lessons both online and in-person. I’ve recorded for films, video games, albums, performed on TV, and with symphonies, opera, and ballet orchestras across the US. My performance experience also includes appearances as a guest soloist and chamber musician. With over 40 years of teaching experience, I use a clear, efficient system that helps students build a solid foundation effectively.

I teach all levels and have a dedicated focus for adult beginners and returning players, since many teachers overlook adults. Advanced musicians and professionals also come to me for specific goals or audition preparation.

What I Teach

  • Fundamentals : Position, technique and music theory.

  • Efficient learning : Reinforcing foundation with a system tailored for you.

  • Step-by-step practice structure : A system built to help you grow technically and musically, so you always know what and how to practice.

  • Advanced technique & audition preparation : Consultations and help with specific goals.

Why Lessons Work (Online & In-Person)

Lessons are effective because they help you show up consistently and stay accountable, leading to faster progress. Choose your preference:

  • Online lessons: Learn from anywhere with close-up angles and clear demonstrations. Convenient and efficient — no commuting, so you can show up more consistently.

  • In-person lessons (Marin County): Expert guidance in a studio environment.

No special equipment is needed — just your violin and a phone, tablet, or computer for online lessons.
