Enrollment Process

Make sure you agree with the policies in our handbook and understand tuition options:
  • Detroit Youth Volume Handbook
  • Marquette Youth Volume 

Email hello@detroityouthvolume.org to be added to our list of prospective students. Subsequently, you'll be emailed a link to compete a Registration Form and request to share your availability for lessons.

Schedule an observation of a private lesson or group class. (optional).
Our concerts are always free and open to the public!

Attend an orientation meeting. Those joining in the Fall will attend an orientation meeting with all families before lessons begin. If joining mid-year, you’ll schedule a 1-hour orientation meeting with DYV administrator. This includes learning about the organization, DYV's teaching approach, payment plan options, instrument rental / materials needed.

Rent an instrument or take yours in for a check up. We recommended these shops: 
  • Bayberry Music  (Ferndale)
  • Psarianos (Troy)
  • Wilson (Birmingham)
  • Shar (Ann Arbor)
  • Detroit Violin Co (Berkley) 

Renting from a guitar store or buying one on eBay is NOT recommended. When you’re child grows out of their instrument while renting, it will be exchanged for a larger size free of additional charge. The time to buy is when the student needs a full-size. Between the ages of three and eighteen, students will probably use four or five different sizes.

  • Suzuki Violin School Volume 1 w/CD (Revised Edition) $20
  • Ages 7+ need I Can Read Music Volume 1 (Joann Martin) $14

  • instrument, music books, binder for notes unless you choose to use your phone or a
          notebook. Teacher will provide pre-printed lesson note sheets.
