Spooky Suzuki
Every year around Halloween time, we have a special group class called "Spooky Suzuki", where we play Halloween-themed games, learn spooky versions of our favorite songs, and, of course, dress up in costume! #spookysuzukigroupclass


Apple Harvest Festival Flash Mob
This October, we took our music to the streets of Southington and performed at the Apple Harvest Festival. My two Suzuki group classes, Twinkle and Book 1, performed their favorite pieces and the crowd loved it. #suzukiviolin
