What kind of flute do I need for this course?

Any kind of Native American Flute is suitable. Any key and any size. However, as this is an absolute beginners course, I recommend to start with a middle-sized flute such as an A, C, D, E, G or F# flute (mid range) Both 5 hole & 6 hole flutes are suitable. Everything covered in this course is suitable for all of these flutes. (Contact me if you are unsure about your flute or where to buy one)
