More Than Lessons

At Lakewood Suzuki Strings, we believe your child’s key to success is in their village. A musical education occurs in private lessons, but also in your child’s home practice, daily listening, learning with other children, and being in community with other families! Our program offers all of this and more — through lessons, group classes, parent discussions, regular performances and community events.
