OUR MISSION
Based in the South-East of London, Herne Hill Violin Studios was started by Daniel Jung with a mission to deliver high level, progressive and engaging violin lessons. Our idea is to inspire, develop and support students to learn to play the violin to their fullest potential, without the compromising fun in the learning experience.
We specialize in teaching students between the ages of 6-16. We believe musical education should be a part of a well-rounded education for young people. Our mission is to make sure every child has a tailored plan for their goals and we schedule a unique program to help each student individually.
