BOSTON MARATHON!

Parents and Students,
I will be gone the April 18th and 19th and morning of the 20th to run the Boston Marathon.  I have already made up private lessons, but will have group lessons this week as well.  Jayni, Michelle and Nikalle, will head up the group lessons for 2nd and Teen class Tuesday afternoon, and then I will be back to teach the rest.  A reminder for 1st year students....I will be conducting a graduation celebration for my Kindermusik class from 4-5pm on Wednesday.  Group lessons will be from 5-6pm this day.  I would have it earlier, but my flight doesn't get in until 1pm and then I have to set up the celebration and group class.  Jot the times and dates down to the right so you will be at the correct group class.  THANKS!

SPRING BREAK for Ms. Susan

KEEP CALM AND PLAY ON!

OVERWHELMED in setting new year goals....Let's keep it simple...Practice every day!
Set a goal each practice day and be specific....1 line perfect, 1 line H.S., a full page with a steady beat met=100, flashcards... 20 in l minutes, practice all scales, arms and cadences with curved tips...The goals are endless, but remember to keep it simple and specific...Interesting enough as being a senior missionary President Yaggi wants us as missionaries to set goals in these areas:  Spiritual, Intellectual, Musical, Physical and Social.  He call them SIMPS...It was interesting to me he included MUSIC...His entire family is very musical!  I thought that these goals  interestingly enough are all provided in group lessons. I can include much more in a group lesson because I have more time...  I love group lessons and know the importance of working and playing together to achieve one common goal.  Group lessons helps students to aspire higher...Synergy comes from a group working together!
