So happy that I took Ami's beginners NAF class. The first lesson made it worth my while and the rest were gravy. I successfully close the finger holes and no longer squeak or whistle my way when playing. Signed up for intermediate lessons. Thanks, Ami for your kind and thorough approach.

Playing an instrument can start at any time of your life
I had a musical childhood. And yet most of my beginner NAF students have never played an instrument. That speaks volumes about the ease of learning to play the Native American flute at any time of life. Don't be discouraged if you have not been successful learning to play another instrument. The Native American flute is an easy instrument to begin playing at any age.
