Violin lessons - but left-handed

    Does anyone know of anyone in the Dublin area who'd teach violin left-handed?


    I have fairly good theory knowledge, and played piano as a youngster. I tried the violin about 10 years ago conventionally but it just never felt right, and for my neighbours' sake as well as my own sanity I gave it up after about 2 years.


    But I'm woefully left-handed, and would love to see if it'd be a bit easier to learn that way - I just have a feeling that it would all feel a bit more natural. It just never felt right playing right-handed.

    Paul Kelly is a very well known left handed fiddle player
    He teaches in Ballyfermot College, I imagine he does private lessons as well when he isn't touring, the College would be a good place to start.

    Hah! That's where I did my right-handed lessons years ago.



    Hadn't actually thought about enquiring from the college themselves (as stupid as that sounds).



    Thanks!
