In addition to his performances, Dimitry maintains a private studio, a faculty position with the Colburn and Windward schools, chamber music coaching at Crossroads School, as well as the Beverly Hills International Music Festival. Dimitry’s teaching methods successfully help develop and increase control of muscular and mental functions, accuracy, precision, discipline, mental awareness and overall coordination in violin performance. As feedback to his approach, students win title positions in prestigious music festivals, schools and orchestras, win honors awards in the Certificate of Merit program, and have performed at renowned concert halls in the USA, Prague, Vienna and Italy. Working with students is an opportunity to share knowledge and performing experience, with further emphasis on social, mental, artistic performance, as well as general psychological benefits and human enrichment.
