“One of the reasons we choose the Suzuki method is because of the parent involvement! The idea to learn the first year with your child is really amazing and does wonders! Not only with the relationship with the child and a foundation for a love of music and learning through example.”

““I knew I wanted my son to learn music, but didn’t think I would get to learn with him. Starting at such a young age, I continue to be amazed at how much he has learned. How Suzuki String Academy introduces music to these young children is so much fun. Now, my son is 5 and is playing songs on his violin. He loves to learn new songs. I have really enjoyed learning myself too, though I’m sure my son will pass my skill leave very soon. The Suzuki Method is a lot of work and dedication, but through the process, you not only gain musical skills, but get to also bond with your child or children.””

“The Suzuki community is a community that prioritizes hard work, an appreciation of fine arts, and above all - family. By encouraging a parent to learn alongside the child it creates an environment where memories are made and relationships strengthen. We are so grateful for Marianne, Ruth, and their incredible team!”
“Working at SSA has given me friendships and wisdom I will carry with me into the rest of my life. Watching Suzuki students commit to practice good habits each day and stay accountable to them, has motivated me in my personal life to strive daily to reach my goals. I love being at Suzuki, and I am so grateful to know and love these wonderful families and teachers. ”
