The Story of Nimble Notes...

Welcome!
I'm Soquel Ross, the owner and instructor here at Nimble Notes.  I'm glad you popped in here to get to know me a little!

I had a unique childhood.
With a grandma and father who were both music educators, music was an integral part of life as far back as I can remember.
There was a song for everything. 
Bath time, play time
Meal time, bed time.
Sad songs, happy songs, celebration songs, worship songs...
Playing with music was a favorite activity of mine from early childhood on.
I was thrilled when I received my 1st violin on my 4th birthday and began Suzuki lessons!

As the years passed I went from teaching my toys and pet chickens music to volunteering in my sibling's music classes. 
Having siblings who also played instruments found us performing and gigging together. 
In my late teens I transitioned from tagging along to music teacher workshops with my Dad & Grandma to beginning a few violin students of my own.
Those experiences cast the dream for a music studio of my own... I wanted other people of all ages to experience the same JOY in making music that I had growing up.

Fast forward to today.  Nimble Notes has been spreading JOY and a Love of Learning since 2018.  I am a certified Suzuki  Violin & Musikgarten teacher and am currently pursuing certification in the Dalcroze method.  Teaching is the way I bring the rich and unique experiences of my childhood to YOUR family.  Any class you come to will have elements of the nature, folk stories, movement, dance, and imagination that framed my own childhood.

Looking forward to meeting YOU as you come begin your journey of JoyFULL music and learning at Nimble Notes!
