The Suzuki Method
​
The Suzuki Method works on the principle that all children can learn music through the same process they learn their mother tongue language. With this approach, children can develop their abilities during the early absorbing and sensitive years far beyond what most people previously imagined.

Piano Lessons
​
​Lessons are taught in a home setting. Beginning students typically take lessons that are 30 minutes in length and attend one lesson per week. More advanced players will have either a 45 minute or 60 minute lesson. Students also are provided recital and masterclass opportunities throughout the year. Parents are expected to attend lessons.
