Pre-Twinkle

An introductory course which immediately inspires a child to find their own unique voice!

Course Description

A small child practices with his violin on his shoulder. A piece of candy sits on the violin as a teaching aid.

Violin and Cello Classes – A 10-week course to introduce both the student and parent to the world of violin or cello lessons. With a strong focus on improvisation using Alice Kanack’s Playing From the Heart, students begin creating music from the very beginning playing with backing tracks while being introduced to the skills that will prepare them to begin playing Suzuki repertoire.

This class is perfect for getting children started and gives both the students and parents a built-in community of like-minded learners. Participants are guided from first steps to getting the right instrument to their very first performance!

This class is perfect for students around ages 3-8 but is open to older and as young as 2 if appropriate.  After the 10-week course students and parents will be ready to be assigned to a teacher and begin private lessons. 

Pre-Twinkle courses are offered in 10-week sessions throughout the year in the following timeframes:

  • Fall — September to November

  • Winter — January to March

  • Spring — April to June
