This class is a great way for your student to begin their journey into music. We will approach music in an engaging and practical way that is great for beginners to learn music theory and build musicianship skills. The class is interactive and the learners are encouraged to actively participate throughout the class. This class is perfect for those who are learning an instrument, would like to learn an instrument, or who love to sing! Since this is a beginning level class, no prior knowledge of music is required, although having a basis of music can be helpful - all are welcome! The last 5 minutes of class is allotted for students to share what they've been working on in lessons, the opportunity to perform something, or to ask questions.
