Already learning with Rimma on Udemy? Add personal feedback on your practice videos, access to the full course library and a community to help you keep going.
Udemy gives you videos, but violin requires feedback, correction, and guidance. At ViolinPanda you get all my courses, personal feedback on your playing, one-on-one check-ins, and access to upcoming lessons that will not be available on Udemy.
You will still have the Udemy videos, but you will not receive any updates, new courses, or feedback. Progress will be much slower without corrections and guidance.
Membership gives you:
Access to all my current and upcoming courses (beginner, intermediate, advanced)
The ability to enroll in any course level at any time
Video feedback and corrections from me
Free one-on-one check-ins every two weeks
A supportive community of violin learners worldwide
You simply upload a video of your playing inside ViolinPanda. I will review it personally, give corrections, and guide you on what to improve next.
Yes. The membership is flexible. You can cancel your monthly or quarterly subscription whenever you want.
Yes! Rimma Strings Academy is designed specifically for adult beginners, with step-by-step lessons to guide you from your first note to playing full pieces. No matter your level, there is a course for everyone.
The course includes guidance on choosing a violin. We recommend starting with a beginner-friendly model or renting one if you’re unsure.
If you’re in the UK and join the annual membership during our current offer, you don’t need to buy one — we’ll send you a free beginner violin.
Outside the UK? You’ll still get advice on choosing, and by joining now, you’ll be first in line when the free violin offer becomes available in your region.
Not at all! The course starts from the very basics and assumes no prior musical knowledge.
No, all of this is already covered by your Academy membership. You will receive personalised comments on the videos you play as well as free access to all of Rimma’s live classes.
Absolutely! Some of our members already have a violin teacher but still benefit greatly from this academy. Your violin teacher is probably only available for about an hour per week, whereas our academy is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Our encouraging community, communal practice sessions, and additional feedback will help you stay motivated to practise during the week and be as prepared as possible for your private lessons!
Learning time varies by individual, but with consistent practice and our structured lessons, you’ll see progress in just a few weeks.
Yes! The course is self-paced, so you can progress as quickly or slowly as you’d like. You’ll never feel rushed or left behind.
Absolutely! By the end of the beginner modules, you’ll be able to play simple songs and gradually progress to more complex pieces.
