Structure and very your practice for your own instrument:
⚫
Play, play, play

⚫
every day into
For example, with bagpiping you might play, beginning with 10 minutes, and building up to 1-3 hours per day in your year 7 +:

Piobaireachd on Mondays and Thursdays

March, Strathspeys and Reels on Tuesday and Fridays and

Hornpipes, Jigs, Slow Airs, etc., on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
