Freedom In Form is a 6-month journey into the heart of what you want most in your music and your life.
Our time together offers a profoundly supportive space for your body, mind, and spirit so you may anchor into your unique gifts and step fully into your artistry.
When you are ready to breathe life into your creative vision and feel amazing along the way, Freedom In Form is for you.
I created Freedom In Form to offer flutists the most effective path to change. My goal for all of my clients is:
I want your playing to match the vision that lives in your heart.
Being a stand for your art and moving unabashedly towards what you want is a sacred act. The vitality and aliveness that result from committing to your soul’s expression will ripple out farther than you can ever know. I love getting to see everything that becomes possible for my clients as a result of the massive transformations that happens during this time.
Who is this for?
My clients are brilliant humans from a multitude of backgrounds who want to embark on a period of musical growth and receive high-level support along the way.
While personal goals vary, everyone is here for a big ole transformation. Freedom In Form is for people who want to accomplish a lot in a relatively short amount of time. Most people are surprised at how often breakthroughs occur — not by cramming in more of what you’ve already been doing, but by attuning to your system, following what you want, and cooperating with your unique ways of learning.
Whether you’re here to master a new instrument, reclaim a joyful relationship with music, build a stable and adaptable foundation of tone and technique, or to cultivate your life’s work — you’re in the right place.
Is this different from lessons?
Yes! I created Freedom In Form to offer a high-commitment high-reward environment. Working with a gifted coach who is a stand for your highest vision no matter what means not only will you meet your goals, you get to go beyond what you think is possible.
The best collaborations happen when both parties are fully onboard. You and I commit to getting crystal clear on what you want and work together to accomplish what you’re setting out to do. Going together makes progress so much faster and so much easier.
This includes anything you want to be better — performance anxiety, your health, growing a career, what’s in your bank account, tone — all of it. You are a whole human and every part of you plays a role.
For six months, you have me — a highly skilled, highly attuned, and relentlessly encouraging source of belief — in your corner. When moments of doubt or stuckness arise, it is my job to guide you through.
My belief in clients is based on witnessing the results that people get over and over again.

My background
I love to study a tradition deeply — it’s history, culture, nuance in phrasing — and then to let music express freely through me.
I greatly value versatility in my playing and have always been drawn to many styles of music. I have performed in Classical ensembles, contemporary art music, Irish traditional, and in ceremonial spaces internationally and across the US.
I have taught flute at the California Institute of the Arts, the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance, the Greater Hartford Academy of the Arts, the Folk Alliance International Music Camp, and have run a private studio for over 20 years.
In addition to music experience, I am a devoted yogi, licensed massage therapist, energy worker, life coach, triathlete, and devotee of spiritual study through nature. Freedom In Form lets me bring all of my expertise to the table.
What People Are Saying
“I have the direction I was lacking because Molly gave me the tools and confidence to do so in the most flexible and relaxed manner. There is no pressure or race to a finish line - Molly meets you where you are. I learned to do the same, and finished our immersive with far more than the coaching and support I sought. Our time left me with a healthier approach toward my music and my life.”
Kaitlin, Classical & Irish flutist
“I am thrilled with my decision to engage with Molly in a container. My hopes were to improve my playing and to begin to identify what I referred to as an authentic sound of my own. While I did have the key elements, my playing lacked a robust flow and lift that I admire. What transpired was a completely transformed relationship to playing and, very importantly, to rhythm and tone. Molly’s extraordinary insights into my concepts of tone, rhythm and the role and execution of articulations led to a completely new relationship to rhythm that has had a huge effect on my playing. I am delighted that I trusted that the container process would yield positive results and delighted with the results. Molly is a superb teacher with a gift for identifying (together with the client) the key issues to work on. In addition to her in-depth musical knowledge, she has a vast experience in relaxation, grounding, and mental processes that impact flute playing. It has been a privilege and a joy to work with Molly in the container. I recommend it highly.”
Brian, Irish flutist
"I have benefitted immensely and am a better flutist and musician from coaching with Molly. The difference is having someone in your corner and someone invested in your progress at a deeper level than most instructors. Molly's approach is impactful and so effective. I learned to figure out what I want, some Irish flute basics I was missing, strategies to unblock my creativity and increase my motivation, and that I can trust my own perceptions and analysis of people and situations. It was worth every penny."
Danna, Irish flutist
