Practice makes permanent. Decide the skills you want to learn next and implement attaining them in a regimented practice routine: like you were in the flute military! If you want your fingers to be fast and your embouchure to be strong, treat your practice room like the flute gym: and your studies like preparing for the Olympic games!

Practice makes progress. Theorizing or hypothesizing all day long won’t get you as far as taking action daily. Start with something you LIKE. Set a minimum of five minutes on average per day and you will find that you easily spend more than five minutes a day once you sit down to practice.

I promise it's more fun to practice your arpeggios when you're improvising than just straight-up arpeggios! For somewhere easy to start, start playing your C major & G major arpeggios along with this backing track. The important thing here is to listen for the change in the backing track: hear when it changes from C major to G major? When it changes to G major, YOU change to G major arpeggios! Your reaction to the backing track is what's most important here. Not playing a lot of notes! Try to play a few notes very beautifully with lots of intention. You can IMPROVISE on the rhythm, articulation, octave and dynamics as much as you want! Record yourself. Listen to your recordings. And share them here! 😁
