What is The Unpractice Space?

Hosted on Patreon, The Unpractice Space is a sanctuary for musicians seeking relief, renewal, and reconnection with their art.

Whether you’re recovering from playing-related injuries, burnout, or simply questioning the pressures of the classical music world, The Unpractice Space offers tools, practices, and a community to help you peel back the layers of perfectionism and rediscover your authentic self.

Why “Unpractice”?

Because growth doesn’t come from pushing through pain—it comes from listening to yourself.

Traditional advice like “fix your posture” or “release tension” only scratches the surface of the deeper issues facing musicians. In The Unpractice Space, we guide you to explore your movement, your mind, and your emotions in a way that builds trust in your body and your intuition. This isn’t about achieving perfection; it’s about finding freedom.

What You’ll Find

  • Pain Relief for Playing-Related Injuries
    Move beyond “you are your instrument” and reclaim your body. Whether you’re still performing or have stepped away from playing, this is your space to heal.

  • Undo the Damage of Toxic Classical Music Culture
    Let go of outdated norms, release the need for perfection, and reconnect with why you love music in the first place.

  • Mind-Body Awareness
    Through methods like Feldenkrais, we help you honor the connection between your mind and body—two parts of yourself that should never have been separated.

  • Authenticity as an Artist
    Peel back the layers of external pressure and rediscover who you are when you stop listening to others and start listening to yourself.
