Hello Parents,

Here is where you can get information aimed directly to you, our fine parents at the DaVinci Center.  You are the most important factor in your child continuing in his/her lessons.  Your overall outlook on what your child is learning, your support and committment to this, and your own personal engagment in actively continuing to learn about, and participate in, the artistic growth of your child guarantees their success, guarantees they are better for it, guarantees you have helped facilitate their brain power and intelligence.  That deserves a pat on the back and.......some support and helpful hints from us.  Creativity in music and art is a lifelong road and sometimes its success comes down to merely staying the path.  I imagine many of you are like me in that your own parents had you in music classes but you expressed a desire to quit and your parents agreed.  Then, much later in life, you realize that you had quite an opportunity way back then, and had you only stayed the path, had  your parents only guided you to continue on as if it was just a fact and way of life to do so, you would now have musical abilities that would bring you and your family and friends, much joy, and provided an amazing creative outlet for your energies.  And, quite scientifically, your brain would be bigger, affecting so many other areas of your life with the amazing integrated freeways of neural connections between the right and left brain hemispheres.

Right here, let me add that it's never too late to learn music.  (I know this personally.)  You can greatly affect your child by participating in your own creative artistic education and expression, from music to martial arts. 

Let's continue to partner together, create together, and share our artistic endeavors with one another.  You are important to us!
