I believe the most important part of learning is a positive, supportive environment where students feel encouraged to grow. My studio welcomes students ages 5 through adult, from complete beginners to advanced players.
Having studied with many different teachers and philosophies myself, I’ve developed a method that helps students progress quickly, confidently, and joyfully. Each lesson begins with a conversation about your practice so we can celebrate progress and work through challenges together.
Lessons include technical and tone exercises as well as carefully chosen repertoire that balances skill-building and enjoyment. I help students select pieces that inspire them—and if you’d like to learn a favorite popular song, I’ll even create a custom arrangement tailored to your level! Together we can also explore playing by ear and improvisation.
For online students, I provide recorded duets, solos, and piano accompaniments so we can make music together, even at a distance. If you’re studying flute in school, we can either reinforce your current materials or branch out into new repertoire to expand your skills beyond the classroom.
I look forward to meeting you and supporting your musical journey. Let’s find a time that works best for your lessons—I’d love to help you reach your goals!

I've been taking flute lessons with Leanna for more than two years, and she is an extraordinary teacher. Her teaching methods really work, whether you're time crunched, prepping for a difficult audition, overloaded with band music, or simply wanting to grow your abilities as a flutist—Leanna helps with everything. She is super kind and patient, and always sets a great mood for each lesson. I remember when I was looking for a flute teacher, I was worried private lessons wouldn't work for me or that it would be hard to find a good teacher, but then I had my first lesson with Leanna, and I've only grown from there. She never stops motivating and always puts in the extra effort to help her students.
Leanna is an exceptional teacher who employs innovative and unconventional teaching methods to help students truly understand and engage with the material.

Leanna has been an above-and-beyond flute teacher for my daughter since 2021. She’s professional, supportive, and flexible. Whether it’s helping with instrument selection, competitions, or providing extra materials, she always puts in so much effort to guide us. She is truly wonderful and I am very grateful for her being there. 5 stars! ️️️️️
