At Solstice Flute Camp, we have spent over ten years dedicated to preserving the rich tradition and beauty of Native American Flute music. Our camp offers a unique environment for individuals of all skill levels to connect with the art of flute playing and explore the cultural significance behind it. Each session is designed to inspire participants through immersive instruction, allowing everyone to foster their own creativity while honoring the heritage of this beautiful instrument. Join us and experience the magic of music that transcends time and connects us all.
All morning classes, afternoon sessions, and activities as well as most of our workshops are new for 2026. All have been redesigned to reflect the theme of Heal Your Soul! We believe not only in the beauty of the Native American Flute but, that its sound reaches deep within you working wonders. And yes, it can even heal your soul!
What Solstice Flute Camp Means to Me...
Ron Britton asked me the above question in September 2023 and wanted me to write my answer to it for the new website he was working on. I had just finished flute camp 2024 and had taken over as the new Executive Director at the end of it. At that time, the words that came to my mind were overwhelming, massive responsibility, stress, can’t let it fail, and what was I thinking.
Definitely not what Ron was needing at the time, Lol. Now a year later, Ron is asking me the same question and to put something in writing for the website. And guess what, all of those same scary words came to mind again, but this time it’s different. Along the way, I’ve experienced so many new words associations like magic, healing, joy, purpose, gratitude, life changing, and success that outweigh the scary ones.
I had a wonderful team made up of our Board, Instructors, Vendors, Volunteers, Students, and support staff at Chapel Rock to work with. Yes, most of those scary words are still there, but they are no longer scary at all when you have the best team ever sharing them with you. I no longer wonder, “what was I thinking”.
The first time I met Brent Haines, he told me, “what we do matters” and he was so right. The friendships, connections, healing, transformations, and of course all of those magic moments that are always there year after year. Yes, from my perspective, it is a lot of work, but it makes such a difference and is so rewarding. I see everything so differently now. All of this is part of what Solstice Flute Camp means to me and I am honored to be the caretaker of such a wonderful organization.
Testimonials
My Magic Moment: As a newbie I was very nervous to attend camp and go to class. In fact, my first day all I did was cry! Not so much out of frustration, but all my insecurities came to the surface and my breathing choked up. Thank God for Shelly and Fabian who are so kind, encouraging and also not afraid to get in your face in the nicest possible way and say: “Breathe! Relax!” A couple days in, we had the opportunity to play from our heart while Fabian drummed a beat. I played my first heart song and it was magical! ✨🌟I’m so thankful for this week from the bottom of my heart and soul!

Every year, Solstice Flute Camp is a celebration of music, connection, and personal growth. As a teacher, I am inspired by the opportunity to share my knowledge and passion for music with others. The smiles and sparkling eyes of the attendees are a testament to the transformative power of music to uplift and inspire.
As Micky Hart so beautifully expresses it, "There's nothing like music to relieve the Soul and uplift it." This is the profound experience that awaits when you're creating music and empowering others to find their own unique voice. 🎶 🎵
