Leave your flute out in plain view when youāre at home. If your flute is out and ready to play, youāre more likely to pick it up and rack up a few minutes of practice. Even if itās only for 5 minutes at a time, it adds up.

Try the āPomodoro Techniqueā to practice tough passages. Set a timer for a short practice period - 10 minutes is good. When the time goes off, take a short break from practice, and do something else - walk, stretch, housework, etc. Then set the timer and repeat. After every 4 practice periods, take a longer break. You can repeat this cycle several times in a day to get in a lot of practice, without giving a solid block of time to practice.

Is there a sound in your tone that you donāt want (whistle, hiss, warble, etc)? Instead of trying to get rid of it, try to focus on it and make it happen - ironically, this often makes the unwanted sound disappear.

With an active performing and recording schedule, and a growing studio of students, Shawn Tairyu Head has dedicated himself to bringing the shakuhachi to new audiences around the world. While he embraces the traditional melodies of the ancient repertoire known as honkyoku, his classical conservatory training and Western spiritual perspective make him equally at home composing and commissioning new works that explore the unique sonic possibilities of the shakuhachi. As a performer, composer, and teacher, his goal is nothing less than a shakuhachi revival.
