Temporary Closure of Violin & Viola Studio 🎶
I would like to inform you that I will be temporarily closing my violin and viola teaching studio due to an extended travel period of more than six months. During this time, I will not be available for lessons, but I look forward to resuming teaching once I return.
For those currently taking lessons, I will reach out to discuss transitioning and wrap-up plans. I truly appreciate your understanding and support, and I look forward to reconnecting and sharing music with you when the studio reopens.
Thank you for being part of this journey, and I can’t wait to work with you again in the future!

Important Studio Update
Dear Dennis's Violin & Viola Studio Community,
With a sense of accomplishment, I'm announcing the closure of my Los Altos studio. I cherish the memories we've created.
For the time being, I'll only be teaching a limited number of students. This decision allows me to spend more time with my family, particularly my two-year-old.
I'm grateful for your understanding and support during this transition. For those interested, I'll do my best to accommodate continued lessons. Thank you for being part of this musical journey.
Best,
Teacher Dennis

After many years of teaching in the Fremont studio, I have made the difficult decision to close my Fremont studio starting in August 2013. Consequently, I will have to discontinue teaching some of my private students in other studios as well.
I want to seize this opportunity to express my heartfelt appreciation for each and every one of my wonderful students who have been an integral part of my teaching journey. The time we have spent together and the progress we have made will forever hold a special place in my heart. I will deeply miss our musical journey and the joy of making music together.

I'm happy to announce that our Fall Student Recital was a great success! I'm proud of all my students for their wonderful performances. However, I need to take some time off to take care of my new baby in the coming year. Unfortunately, this means I have to postpone my teaching position at CSMA for now. I'll miss all my lovely students there, Wishing you all the best.
