In our Suzuki Early Childhood Education program, teachers lead families through a curriculum of songs, rhymes and activities designed to keep children engaged in a calm, focused environment. Taking turns and collaborating on familiar activities, students develop social skills and connection! Teachers make use of various instruments such as the triangle, xylophone, woodblock and drums to enhance and nurture the foundational development of pitch and rhythm necessary to begin private instrumental study when they are older. The occasional guest may even demonstrate an instrument from our Suzuki Instrumental Program!
Our Suzuki Early Childhood Education classes are offered in two 15-week sessions, with rolling admissions. Tuition will be prorated for families joining mid-semester. Families may register one semester at a time.

- Trials are limited to two families per class. Classes are open for trials at the discretion of the teacher, so please discuss the available class sections with our registration team.
- Signing up for a trial class does not reserve your spot to register for the class. If a class fills up before your selected trial date, your trial will be canceled.
- Families taking a trial class will participate with their child.
