Master Audition Preparation in Just 3 Days!

🎻 Violinists: Struggling To Get the Results You Want In Your Auditions?

Despite countless hours of practice, do nerves and self-doubt sabotage your performance when it matters most?

Most violinists unknowingly make the same mistakes before auditions—mistakes that prevent them advancing to the finals.

🔥 Does this sound familiar?

❌ Nerves take over, and your hands shake.

❌ Your rhythm and control fall apart under pressure.

❌ You play great at home but fall short in auditions.

🔹What if this time felt different?

✅ You walk into the audition room feeling calm, focused, and in control.

✅ Your hands stay relaxed, your breath controlled.

✅ No second-guessing yourself. No panic. Just music flowing with confidence.

✅ Your bow arm, your shifts.. everything feels solid and effortless —just as you practiced.

✅ As you finish, you walk out with confidence, instead of disappointment.

🔥 This isn’t wishful thinking.
It’s trainable.
Learn how in the Audition Mastery Challenge.

Talent isn’t the problem.

It’s knowing how to perform under pressure.

Most violinists practice hard but still choke in auditions—not because they aren’t good enough, but because they’ve never been taught how to prepare for high-stakes performance.

This 3-day live challenge is designed to fix that.

✅ Train your mind and body to stay calm under pressure

✅ Master high-performance audition prep (not just "play it again" practice)

✅ Build unshakable confidence before you step into the audition room.

No guesswork. No overwhelm. Just a proven method that works.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Audition Mastery Challenge Live Class Schedule

This will be a series of LIVE classes on Zoom. Please mark your calendars:

📅February 24, 26, & 28, 2025 | 1:00-2:00pm ET
🎟️ VIP Upgrade Available (Extra Training on February 25 & 27, 2025)

Is this Challenge in person or online?

This Bootcamp will be held online via Zoom. You can attend from anywhere in the world!

Is this Challenge just for violinists?

This Bootcamp will focus on preparation strategies, how to strengthen the inner game, how to build inner confidence as well as mental and physical resilience for performance under pressure.

While the strategies are applicable to all performing musicians, I will be focussing on violinists, using violin excerpts as examples.

I've done other audition prep courses - What makes this unique?

Audition coaching programs for violinists often focus heavily on technique and repertoire and only briefly explain how to manage performance nerves and preparation strategy. This leaves a major hole in your audition training leaving you vulnerable to nerves inconsistency, and poor performance.

Audition Mastery Challenge for violinists is designed to integrate the mental game, performance mindset, strategic preparation, as well as musicality and technique for violinists—the real game-changer in winning a violin audition!

I don’t have an audition coming up soon—should I still join?

Yes! The best time to prepare is BEFORE you’re under pressure.
You don’t need an upcoming audition! This Challenge helps you build lifelong skills that will set you up for success whenever your next opportunity comes.

What if I can't attend live? Will I get access to replays?

Yes! You can catch the replays after I upload them. You will get 30 days access.

Even if you can't attend one or more of the days, you can still follow along with the material and do the suggested homework afterwards.

I scheduled each session with a day in between so that there's time to implement and absorb the concepts I teach.

What topics will you cover? Will I need to perform in front of others?

This is an action-oriented Challenge with guided exercises.

I will address skills not typically covered in violin audition coaching: time management, practice planning, practice techniques, positive mindset, motivation, building confidence and decreasing performance nerves/stage fright.

I will not be focussing specifically on individual orchestral excerpts (e.g., fingerings, bowings, interpretation, etc.), however there will be opportunities to play in the form of posting videos in my private Dr. Lynn's Practice Ninjas Facebook group.

Will I get to play in this Challenge?

You will get the chance to record your progress/playing videos and post them inside my private Facebook group to give you accountability, motivation, and opportunities to build your performance courage.

From the selected videos, I will select up to three people (*who have upgraded to VIP) to perform in the Day 3 Masterclass). I will give personal feedback and help you hone your audition repertoire!

Dr. Lynn Kuo
Founder of Violin With Dr. Lynn

With 24 years as Assistant Concertmaster of the National Ballet of Canada Orchestra, I have dedicated my life to the violin. From orchestra auditions to concert stages worldwide, I've experienced the pressures, nerves, and frustrations inherent in the audition process.

Throughout my journey, I have coached with esteemed mentors which have included Nathan Cole, Burton Kaplan, Dr. Don Greene, Rob Knopper, Noa Kageyama, and Michael Colgrass. Their coaching transformed my life as a musician, giving me the tools to build increased confidence, inner strength, and resilience as a performer.

Now, my passion lies in helping other violinists do the same: to build unshakeable confidence and composure under pressure and to help you play to your full potential both technically and musically.

Drawing from the worlds of sports psychology, neuroscience, positive psychology, martial arts, and yoga philosophy, it is my mission to provide powerful and effective techniques for violinists who want to succeed and thrive as confident performers.

I am excited to help you build the strength and resilience you need to empower you in your auditions and beyond!
