The 2022 MMTA Conference will be a dynamic meeting at Western Michigan University in Kalamazoo that will feature diverse and inspiring teaching talent. This conference will once again inspire, and gather us together to collaborate, network and learn from our colleagues.
Public performance is a vulnerable activity that needs just as much nurturing and guidance as learning the music to be performed. Our students must develop a variety of mental and emotional skills to prepare them for the experience of butterflies in their stomach, trembling hands, and jumpy thoughts. In this workshop, we will learn the physiological, mental, and emotional symptoms of performance anxiety and explore practical strategies for helping our budding pianists convert their debilitating fear into powerful excitement.
Members will receive a Zoom link for this program. Non-members are invited and may email elenatsai007@gmail.com for the link.
