I am an active member of the following organizations: SMTA (Sarasota Music Teachers Association) FSMTA (Florida State Music Teachers Association MTNA (Music Teachers National Association)
These organizations provide performance and evaluation opportunities. I enter students in several events throughout the school year. I generally prepare all my students but participation is up to you! Other opportunities are available for performance including scholarships & awards.
I have two annual recitals for my studio only, one during the Holidays and one at the end of the school year. I have group classes prior to each studio recital so students can perform for each other in a casual setting (we always have refreshments of some kind> see the photo gallery for proof!)
I have been at my current location since 2002. I am fortunate to have a separate building with a space designated for my pianos and students. There is plenty of space for parking. I also have a large yard for siblings to play if you don't want to wait inside the studio.
