09/24 Update - Two Weeks In
Monday, September 25, 2023 | Update
We're off to a great start of the school year. I really enjoy having students back in the studio and hearing (and seeing) lots of growth and excitement. A reminder, the 1st Group Week will be in a couple weeks: October 9 - 13. I will share more about the schedule and expectations next week.
Welcome Back to Lessons
Monday, September 11, 2023 | Update
Welcome to the first week of the Primary Session and the first week of lessons. By now you should have a confirmed lesson time and received an invoice for this month's lessons. If you are not enrolled in Auto-Pay, monthly payments are now due and should be paid before the 1st lesson of each month. Let me know if you need help enrolling in auto-pay.

Studio Update - 9/26
Monday, September 26, 2022 | Update
Happy Fall to all!
The sunshine is still a regular visitor during lessons but the turn toward cooler temps and our more familiar form of Seattle sunshine seem imminent. I may start welcoming students into back into the indoor studio shortly. As promised, I'm excited to announce the schedule for the first Group Week of the school year! We have a several in-person group options and a Zoom session that will review some of our songs from our Core Tunes list. Please look at your previous "Lesson Time" email to recall your student's group cohort.
As our Group Weeks are a bit fewer and further between I want to encourage families to do their best to have students participate in one or more of these session. Particularly if there are guest teaching artists joining. I'm also connecting with cellist, Tracy Hagen and her studio to invite them to jam with us. So these will be great events to gather and play along with new friends! No need to pre-register for any of these sessions. Save the dates!

I am happy to announce the renewal of my Discovery Workshop Series for children. Many of my current students were introduced to the violin during these workshops. I would love to introduce the violin to more children and families and grow our studio. If you know of any families who may be interested, feel free to share the following. I will be sharing more on my social media channels over the coming weeks!
