General Information

Private Lesson Rates

Violin Artistry is a year-round curriculum with a monthly payment system, due at the first of the month. (Please note that most months have 4 weekly lessons per month but some have  3 or 5 weeks). There is a strict 24-hour cancellation policy.

The new hourly rate, effective January 2012 is:

30 Minutes  (1/2 hour)  = $40.00
45 Minutes  (3/4 hour)  = $55.00
60 Minutes  (1 hour)     = $70.00
90 Minutes (1.5 hours) = $100.00
120 Minutes (2 hours) = $130.00
The 90 minute and 120 minute rates are for a single student. Rates are calculated PER CLASS so back-to-back sibling lessons are considered two separate lessons.

Kacie and Colin have varying rates and availability so please inquire for more information.

I am happy to teach any visiting students (from the mainland and abroad) as long as I have an opening in my schedule. 

Group Class 

Group Classes are held once a month for the Pre-Twinkle and the Book 1-3 Level. The fee is $20.00 per student. Group Class is not a substitute for private lessons, and all students must be taking private lessons with an accredited teacher of the Suzuki Association of Hawaii. Students of other violin studios may attend my monthly group class as long as they are paying their annual membership dues to SAH. Please email for more info.
Group class is an excellent opportunity to work on memory, technique, communication, cooperation, listening, stage fright, confidence and musical knowledge. We play games, practice the repertoire and work on violin technique in a fun atmosphere among students of a similar age group and level. It is generally suited for the younger ages, not adults or teens.
