I don't suggest sending kids to this school, especially if your kids have special needs. The…read morefounder/board member/director Kate Yoder dislikes young kids and autism kids. She discriminated my kid as soon as we walked in the recital room. She asked us not to sit in the front row because she said my kids were "young". Approaching to the end of the recital, she ordered us to sit in the back because she said my kids were "noisy". She knew my kid had ASD. But my kid is high functioning and behaves pretty normally. There're other young children and baby(ies) in the audience making sound. My kid's teacher who was also in the audience approved in writing later that my kids were not disturbing. The teacher actually had suggested us to sit as close as to the front. We were targeted by Kate Yoder from the beginning. My kid has autism. We are minority. I had never met her before. My kid met her only briefly years ago. To rationalize her discriminated and targeted actions, Kate Yoder even made up some actions that my kids never did "legs in the air, lying on the floor" in writing. It was also proved by other audience not happening at all. It's so evil for an educator to put on innocent young children!! Whenever I requested Kate Yoder to apologize, the school canceled my kid's signup of the summer program and kicked my kid out from the school. And it happened twice. What a shame for a place that is supposed to be for beautiful things like music and care! Kate Yoder should step down from all her positions of this organization!

It changed my life. I was playing a Yamaha 584H through college and for nearly 10 years afterward, and wasn't sure I would ever amount to being much of a flutist. That is, until I tried the Powell...I didn't know what more I was capable of til then. The Aurumite also is a unique blend of gold and silver offering the response of silver and the warmth of gold. Other cool things about Powell: Their website is wonderful with tons of info about the company, masterclasses, events, videos of flutemaking. They make these great metal plugs "Plug-O's" for flutes which convert an open hole flute to closed hole and back, and the rubber o rings that hold them in prevent them from falling out. Friendly staff, always answer e-mails and phone calls.
