WEEKLY CLASSES:
Pre-Twinkle Suzuki Group Class 
Instructor: Katherine Miller
Description: In this class we will go over proper violin position, bow hold, posture, learning to play on open strings, and eventually with fingers. Once a student has learned to play all of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star with the Suzuki variations, they will be eligible to join the Suzuki Book 1 class. Private lessons may not be required for the first trimester, however they are strongly encouraged. The combination of group and private will aid your child in learning more efficiently. Practicing at home as well as listening to the Suzuki violin recordings is an integral part of the class. A parent must attend with their child so they know what needs to be practiced at home.
This class is for beginners who are interested in learning to play the violin or those who have just begun lessons. (Ages 4 & up)
Day, Time, and Start Date: Tuesday, 4:30-5:15 pm, beginning February 1 and meeting on 2/15, 3/1, 3/15, 3/29, 4/12, 5/3, and 5/17
