Welcome to another episode of the Musicians Creating Prosperity Podcast, hosted by Dr. Fabiana Claure! In today’s episode, Fabiana sits down with Maaike Aarts, a renowned violinist and Alexander Technique teacher, who successfully transitioned her music teaching business from 60 one-on-one teaching hours per month to just 20, while tripling her income in only two months.
Maaike shares how she moved past the fear of change, embraced a hybrid teaching model, and leveraged The Musician’s Profit Umbrella® Framework to create a sustainable and scalable music business—without sacrificing quality or student impact.
Key Highlights:
Redefining Music Teaching: How Maaike transitioned from a 1:1 lesson model to a hybrid group + private lesson structure that serves more students while reducing her workload.
Creating a High-Value Learning Experience: How she combined live group lessons, video-based feedback, and community engagement to give her students more support while preserving her time.
Reclaiming Time and Energy: The shift from overworked and overwhelmed to a balanced, fulfilling career that allows for personal well-being and family time.
Mindset Shifts for Success: How overcoming self-doubt and adopting an entrepreneurial approach helped Maaike confidently enroll students at a higher level and scale her income to over €41,000 in just two months.
Tune in to uncover how you can break free from the 1:1 teaching model, scale your income, and create more impact—without burnout.
