Zion Canyon Native Flute School


May 2-6, 2010

The Zion Canyon Native Flute School is a multi-day intensive workshop for people who play (or wish to play) the Native American Flute. It is a chance to deepen your experience with music in general and Native Flutes in particular. Flute players of all levels of experience are welcome!

The founder of the Zion Canyon Native Flute School, Shaman Spirit Betina Lindsey has selected Red Mountain Resort & Spa to be the site of the 2010 sessions, for its unparalleled beauty, surrounded by the magnificent red cliffs of Snow Canyon State Park.

Workshop sessions throughout the week focus on building confidence playing the flute in many settings and styles and expressing your inner voice. We encourage the sounds of all players in a supportive and non-critical environment.


Topics include:

  • The elements of music - melody, harmony, rhythm, texture, and silence;
  • Basic Native Flute modes, techniques, and ornaments;
  • Basic improvisation techniques such as call-and-response, solo over drone, and repeated patterns;
  • Song forms such as A/B/A contrast, blues, and rounds.
  • Evening concerts, flute making, recording and much more

You can become a Certified Music Practitioner on any instrument while at the Native Flute School, with more information available by calling 435.772.0778.

Philosophy of the Zion Canyon Native Flute School

We believe that musical self-expression is a joyful and healthy means of communication available to absolutely everyone. There are no "unmusical" people - just people with more or less musical experience. We also believe that participants learn the most when they are actually playing the most. Participants will be playing most of the time! You will get an opportunity to play solo and in ensembles in many settings, and work with facilitators from many different corners of music. Regardless of your current level of experience, if you want to bring your flute playing to a new level, this is the workshop to attend!

To reserve your room, please contact Lori Munk at lmunk@redmtn.com or call 435.652.5706 or 800.402.3992.
