The Suzuki Method in Indonesia is a growing movement as parents and teachers realize the enormous potential of young children to learn music at a young age. Members appreciate the positive growth in a child’s character through music learning and improved relationships within the family, as music becomes part of the family culture.


The Suzuki Approach is named after the Founder of the Suzuki Method of music education, Shinichi Suzuki (1898-1998). Suzuki was a Japanese violin teacher and pedagogue who developed an approach to learning music called the ‘Mother Tongue’ Method. Suzuki demonstrated that children as young as 3 years old can learn to play the violin with the care and love of the family, an environment of listening, encouragement and support, and by practice of a sequence of progressively more difficult songs based on western classical music.

In July 2009 the Asian Suzuki Association (ASA) appointed the Suzuki Music Association of Indonesia (SMAI) to oversee the development of Shinichi Suzuki’s teachings and philosophy in Indonesia. SMAI has now become a member of the International Suzuki Association (ISA) and members can participate and network with other Suzuki families and teachers around the world.
