Good news: if you were thinking about Little Twinklers (which only has 2 spots left right now!) but the scheduling wasn't working out, we've added two new sessions and a second level!

Level 1: ages 4-5, Session II meets Saturdays at 12PM starting 11/7, and Level 2: ages 6-7 meets Saturdays at 12:30PM.

Still 6 weeks, $100, and a chance to learn the very basics of violin by Christmas.

Hope to see you there - booking links in the comments!

We've cooked up something new for you!

Join Ms. Abby on Thursdays starting October 15th for Little Twinklers, an introductory Suzuki violin class.

In this introductory group class, kids learn the very basics of playing violin — no experience needed, and no violin required. Just space to try out the basics in a no-pressure environment.

We'll start with practice-box violins (yes, made from a mac n cheese box) to build confidence holding the instrument the right way, without the pressure of a real one yet. From there, kids learn their first bow-hold exercises and simple rhythm patterns. Playful names like "bow llamas" and "Pepperoni Pizzas" that make technique memorable for little learners. By the end of class, they'll play their first piece on a real violin and leave fully set up to continue on to private lessons, if that's the next step you choose.

To make sure Ms. Abby can give every child real attention, this class is limited to 5 kids and their grown-up.

Why do we hold the Suzuki method in such reverence around here? In today's hectic, fractured-attention economy, Suzuki might be the last activity that brings families together instead of separating them.

Suzuki has always been a family activity. His original teaching approach was to have the parent take lessons in front of the child to spark the child's natural curiosity and desire to mimic their parent. Nowadays, most of us don't go that hard on the original practice...but the parents are still heavily involved in this process! It's not only the reason Suzuki really works, but over time it becomes sacred quality time between the practice parent and the child. Weekly lessons and daily practice time become a preserved and protected way to connect, from those early kindergarten days where you miss your kiddo after sending them away for the day all the way through the hectic high school years.

If you're looking for more quality time with your extracurricular choices, Suzuki is a great one!

Happy September!

After a late summer, our teachers are gearing up to see students this weekend! That's right, starting this month we now have weekend availability for those of you who've got too much going on during the week to add another thing.

We're also launching tuition flexibility programs. No questions asked, no paperwork to fill out, just a way to make lessons a bit more accessible. Curious? Send us a DM!

We look forward to welcoming a new batch of future violinists this fall!

April was a busy one! Recital month and story times galore. Kids who finished the practice challenge received their limited edition medals, and a few kiddos finally got to join the sticker club by completing their first Twinkle - one did so while wearing said medal.

Plus, my student and I unexpectedly twinning while representing Kagan and Gaines, and two of my students unexpectedly outfit coordinating for the recital.

May is mercifully a little calmer, but you can catch a few story times or come say hey at Winnie's Playroom for a mini lesson on the 27th. Link to book in the comments!

April was NUTS but May looks a little calmer 😂

Come say hi at a storytime! Or, if your curiosity about Suzuki is growing, come to my free parent webinar on May 7th!

And, if you missed pop up mini lessons at the treehouse, you can catch me this month at on the 27th from 4-6.

Don't forget - you can book me for a storytime at your school, library, or party. Just send me a DM to check availability!

Hope to see you soon!

Join us on Friday, May 1st at 5:00 and/or 6:30 pm for an animal-themed Mini Musicians class. Then, let the sounds of the violin captivate you with our interactive story time.
