Kids who've had a term or two of private violin join together to play in unison, work on bow hold, and build ensemble listening skills. We rotate through the Suzuki book pieces the group is collectively working on. A fun, social complement to private lessons.

We like it overall, with some room to grow. The schedule has changed on us twice this term with pretty short notice. Miss Yuki is nice but the pacing has felt off the last couple sessions.
We tried two other places in the Valley before this one and nothing compares. She came home with a first real bow hold that actually looks right and she wouldn't stop talking about it.
Brandon has been counting down to Monday every single week. He came home with a clean little rendition of Twinkle Twinkle on a quarter-size violin and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Miss Yuki is wonderful with his whole group. Worth every credit.
We've been coming since last fall and the difference in confidence is obvious. She came home with a first real bow hold that actually looks right and she wouldn't stop talking about it. My son tags along and asks every week when it's his turn to join.
I was nervous she would lose interest but it's been the opposite. She came home with a Suzuki book piece hummed nonstop since class and she wouldn't stop talking about it. Mr. Aaron is wonderful with her whole group.
Amir has been counting down to Wednesday every single week. He came home with a Suzuki book piece hummed nonstop since class and he wouldn't stop talking about it. Miss Yuki is wonderful with his whole group. We recommend it to every parent we know.
Nia has been counting down to Monday every single week. She came home with a Suzuki book piece hummed nonstop since class and she wouldn't stop talking about it. Street parking on Riverside Dr is easy on weekends. Worth every credit.
