The Suzuki Method provides students, starting at very young ages, with a solid foundation in ear training, technique, and music theory, which enables student to pursue any avenue of musical expression that they choose. With that in mind, our primary goal is to guide each student into developing a positive and thriving relationship with his/her instrument.
It is therefore worthwhile to give daily attention to the development of the ability to make music, even if other less worthy activities must be sacrificed. To that end, we make many efforts to motivate students to develop daily practice habits…as Dr. Shinichi Suzuki said, “Practice only on the days you eat.” Monthly group activities are planned to nurture the social aspect of music-making.
We believe that parents are the primary force that will keep music-making part of their children’s lives, regardless of “ups and downs” in a student’s relationship with his/her instrument. Parent education and regular communication with parents is therefore very important in our studio.

"I want to make good citizens. If a child hears fine music from the day of his birth and learns to play it himself, he develops sensitivity, discipline and endurance. He gets a beautiful heart."
