Creativity is a powerful teaching tool, and because music is filled with creative interactions, it’s the perfect teaching tool for children with developmental needs.  Physical, language, social, cognitive, and musical development are stimulated through musical play in a social group that is celebratory of all ages and skill levels. Each class will incorporate simple percussion instruments, creative movement, improvisation, and playful props. To ensure each student receives the benefits from the class, the instructor will teach in an age-appropriate manner for the kids in attendance. Comfortable clothing should be worn.

Additional Information

• Students must have a diagnosed disability.
• No previous musical experience is necessary.
• All students must be accompanied by an adult to every class.
• Students must be able to participate effectively in classes and maintain an environment that is safe for themselves and others.
