WORK WITH ME
"I am an avid believer in Ari's music. I've experienced over 6 'Art of Being Human' sessions over the past year, and each one creates new pathways for me to experience myself. Each session brings further and further clarity and access to places within me that I didn't know were accessible. Her music has a way of holding you in a delicate embrace that facilitates your inner experiences. I've met my inner child, my shadow, and my physical body while listening to her music and guided meditation. The most profound part is, now I know how to access those parts of myself at any moment. Ari created a space that taught me life lasting lessons. I am eternally grateful for her spirit and her music."

Testimonials
Ari's not just excellent technically (which she is), she always seems to tap into a higher plane, a mystical space beyond technique, a sacred zone we call Music. There's something deep she has access to, something universal, and it often shows up as profoundly moving music. Soul music.
Her melodic ideas are pregnant with possibility, they exude beauty and grace. They make my day, and sometimes make me cry with their beauty.
I was taken aback as Ari's soul showed up in musical form. I'm not just saying that, I mean it. Her heart hung in the air, vibrating as sonic intoxication. I (literally) wept at the beauty of the moment.

Your new work 'Luminous Prayer' is stunningly beautiful. So needed in this chaotic time fraught with fear. Your lovely music is the perfect antidote.
