Flute Music | Scales | Embellishments | Lessons

Playing your Native American Style Flute | There are no wrong notes! All notes harmonize melodically. Reading music is not needed.

Go HERE for handy playing tips, flute care & troubleshooting for Native American style flutes.

Music Learn to play songs using a unique way of ‘reading music.’ Pictures of what notes to cover and uncover are used instead of reading traditional music. This makes learning very easy to play. Here is the basic scale.

Fundamentals
- Scales and Arpeggios. Get started on the minor pentatonic and major scales. Enjoy advancing to arpeggios, the blues scale, mixolydian and mode 4 pentatonic scales. All on 1-page! Get a chart of musical terms and markings to read timing, embellishments, etc.
- Templates Julie devised in 2020 to write out your own music. Simply use the staff paper lines to make 6 vertical circles for each finger hole. Next, pencil in the circles to show which holes to cover. Lyrics go on the dotted lines in between. The half page format has room below for notes and instructions. Use the full page format for longer songs. Happy creating!
- Chakra Tone Chart See the yoga (Vedic) and Tibetan notes and tones used for balancing chakras by either increasing or decreasing their energy with sound. Yoga (Vedic) notes and tones are based on the diatonic scale. Tibetan tones and notes are based upon the perfect 5th. Try both to see what is best for you. Learn more about chakras here.
- Easy Hand Warm-ups Here’s a great 5-minute series of hand movements & mudras to help your fingers, wrists & hands with easy-to-remember names for each one. Great for musicians & anyone with stiff, painful fingers, hands or wrists. Learn the Hakini Mudra, Beak, Bug, Claw, Paw, Seed, Web, Wings, Eagle & Hridaya. Thank you Christine Stevens at Upbeat Drum Circles for interviewing me.

Yoga Nidra for Stress Relief book ~~ On the Way!

December 9, 2013 by Julie Lusk

Here’s how it all happened ~~ thanks to my lucky stars!

Last February, while I was teaching at Sivananda/Bahamas, I had my Vedic astrology chart read by Krishna Das. This was a first for me.

After describing me better than my own Mother could, he went on to say that the stars and planets and moon were lining up in May exactly as it was when I was born as well as at the age of 30. He said it was going to be a very productive time for me and would bring with it writing, teaching, learning, traveling and such.

I questioned him about the areas that I might concentrate on and gave him a list of things I’m interested in.

Right away, he said that yoga nidra would fit in perfectly with my chart. Next, I asked if I should pursue opportunities and he replied that would not be needed since opportunities would find me.

Can you only imagine the look on my face when I got an email “out of the blue” in May from New Harbinger Publications asking me if I would like to write a book for them on … Yoga Nidra for Stress Relief! Yoga Nidra is the totally relaxing and deeply healing aspect of yoga.

After checking them out and doing some discernment and soul-searching, I agreed. Next, they wanted a book summary, outline, authors bio, and a couple sample chapters. That took me a few months. The contract has now been finalized!

Could you please help me? Something that will really help the book come alive are stories. Would you be willing to share what Yoga Nidra feels like for you? Do you have a Yoga Nidra story about how it has helped you in some way? If so, please send them to me.

Why wait until the book and the new audios are released (it takes a long time). To celebrate, my Real Relaxation: Yoga Nidra CD is on sale for $5 off. This special offer is valid during December 2013.

Here is a (pdf) FAQ sheet on Yoga Nidra on

1) What is Yoga Nidra?

2) Is it different than meditation and hypnosis?

3) How it is done. How often.

4) Benefits

5) Resources.

ENJOY!

Store | Native American Style Flute

Your Native Flute is made by Dave Lusk, a lifelong musician. His mastery of hand-making 14k gold and sterling silver concert flutes and restoring flutes, piccolos, and other woodwinds are applied to designing, carving, and tuning your flute to perfection.

These handmade Native American style flutes have a full, warm sound. They easily play softly or with gusto. They are expertly crafted from western red cedar because of its beauty and coupled with its amazing sound. It’s lightweight which adds to its playability.

Accurately tuned to 440.
Flutes are shaped and tuned by hand with specialized tools. Each flute is beautifully embellished with unique designs handcrafted with a wood-burner.
An innovative thumb rest is added to secure and balance the flute while playing. It positions your lower hand correctly. Place the thumb of the lower hand against the bottom of the thumb rest. The index finger covers the hole right above. This makes playing flute an absolute joy.
Flutes are protected by non-toxic waterproofing, inside and out.
A handmade cleaning rod is provided to easily swab moisture out of the flute after playing. This takes care of wetting out.
Tips on playing your Native American style flute, flute care, and trouble-shooting are found here.
