This class is a great activity for you and your child to participate. A Music Together class can benefit children for the the rest of their lives. Children explore the world in completely different ways than adults. They use many different languages--the language of clay, the language of blocks, the language of paper and crayon, and of course, the language of sound.

What makes Music Together^® Great?

Musical Diversity - each Music Together Collection is created in a way that explores diverse modalities and complex rhythms.
Foundation for Formal Instruction - In the same way we learn to speak before we read, children must feel melody and rhythm comfortably before they can take further steps in formal musical education. Music Together provides a strong foundation for later musical development.
Caregiver Involvement - Sometimes, engaging your children can be exhausting. Music Together offers a different way to play with your child — with rhythm and song!
Social interaction - sharing a regular activity is important for children and for parents. Making music as a group is something we don’t often allow ourselves to do. Participating in a group builds community.
It’s Easy - Caregivers needn’t have any musical training to participate. By simply trying your best children are made to feel it’s safe to experiment as well.

Class Description

Classes meet for 45 minutes each week for 6 weeks. During the class period, children and their caregivers play with music and movement exploring a diverse range of sound and rhythm. Caregiver participation provides an atmosphere that allows children to freely explore music and dance. Music Together classes allow parents and young children the chance to explore their relationship in a musical way. In addition, the diversity of music provides a strong musical foundation for future formal instruction.

Class Expectations

It's easy to forget that children have rights. In Music Together class children have the right not to participate. By allowing each child to experience the class at their own comfort level (whether sitting and quietly watching or jumping into the spotlight), they will grow musically and actively participate when they are ready. You are your child’s first and greatest teacher. Therefore my one requirement is that all grown-ups participate 100%.

I want to provide a safe atmosphere for all children so if your child’s behavior becomes a safety concern for himself or others in the class, e.g.: throwing instruments, WILD running, etc. I will either intervene or ask you to do so. The goal is to keep the class safe.

To prevent the spread of germs and allergic reactions no food or drink is allowed in the class. I'll make sure to wipe down all instruments between classes and provide hand sanitizer which everyone is welcome to use.
