 | The Suzuki Valhalla Institute is now entering its sixth year. Described as "the best-organized, friendliest institute we've ever attended" and "high standards in a laid-back environment" by veteran families and faculty, the SVI provides a uniquely intimate and friendly Suzuki Institute environment which challenges students at all levels. |
| The SVI provides instruction in violin, viola and cello, from a faculty of highly trained and skilled Suzuki teachers with experience teaching all levels. The institute has the sanction of the Suzuki Association of the Americas. It provides individualized daily instruction in small master classes of no more than 4 students, and three hours a day of group experiences such as orchestras, ensembles, repertory and musical movement classes. Additional recitals, concerts, play-ins and other events are also scheduled. |  |
 | The location of the institute is unique and inspiring. Nestled between two pristine wilderness parks in the southeastern corner of British Columbia, Canada on the shores of beautiful Slocan Lake, the small community of New Denver and its surrounding area is known for its artistic vibrancy, spectacular scenery and welcoming community warmth. |
| Classes take place at the innovative K-to-12 Lucerne Elementary-Secondary School which is within easy walking distance of beaches, hiking trails, main street, restaurants, campgrounds and other accommodations. |  |
