Young Children’s Classes
Our group classes feature singable melodies, playful movement games, and age-appropriate instruments, all designed to build musicianship in a fun and joyous environment and to instill a love of music. Research and experience show that the most effective way to teach young children music is through activities that encourage them to use their bodies and voices to develop rhythm and pitch. Those crucial skills are then carried over to later instrumental instruction.
