Has your child expressed a desire to learn an instrument, or perhaps specifically the violin?
Then this is a class you should consider. Research has shown that early childhood goes until
age 7 or 8. The approach taught in this beginning violin class is very focused on the young
child, and incorporates elements from a few different music education methodologies.
Two levels of instruction are offered:
Level One for beginners (age 5-7)
Level Two for returning students who have completed Level One
While not required, two years of MT parent/child classes,
or the equivalent are highly recommended prior to taking this class.
In this exciting introduction to the violin, children have the opportunity to begin learning to play the instrument with sound technique in a fun, stimulating group session. The playful, engaging class incorporates a multifaceted approach to learning the instrument, which is certain to keep your child interested and involved.
