If you are a local teacher, please bring your students with you to institute! We have masterclass and group class opportunities for local Suzuki students of all levels.
A few changes to note:
1. The Suzuki Association of the Americas now requires all participants to enroll for courses through their website, so we have decided to also handle payments through their site for a one-stop registration process.
2. For Students and recent graduates (within 3 years), please enroll and pay the full tuition online, then write to hillary.nordwell@gmail.com with the name of the institution you are enrolled in or have recently graduated from, and an explanation of your student/graduate status. We will provide you with a reimbursement (at the beginning of your course) for 25% of your tuition through the Suzuki Association of Washington State.
3. If you are taking multiple courses with us, you will need to register for each course separately this year.
4. Registration fees are now included in the course fee listed.
5. Early bird registration deadline is March 31, after which point the course fees listed will increase by $25-$50.
To enroll in a course, please visit the SAA Events Page. In order to enroll, you must first LOG IN to your SAA Member Account so the SAA can verify you have completed all the prerequisites for that course. The enrollment box can be found at the bottom of the course listing, ONLY if you have first logged in and have completed the pre-requisites.
To easily find the courses we offer, you may search by Organizer (Seattle Suzuki Circle) or by teacher trainer (Caroline Fraser or Hillary Nordwell). At the top of the Events page, you will find a link to log in or create a new account, as well as a START HERE link that will give you detailed instructions (with photos) on how to enroll.
For Latin American Participants, the enrollment process remains the same as in previous years, through our website, but you will need to write to hillary.nordwell@gmail.com in order to receive the link to the form.
If you need further assistance, please feel free to contact Hillary Nordwell at 415-312-2026 or hillary.nordwell@gmail.com
