“Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination...”

Music

We hold the fundamental belief that music and movement are integral to human development. Music is a language that transcends spoken word; babies innately respond to music in utero. What a beautiful gift to share with our babies and children! 

Self-Esteem

Within this program we want to embrace the opportunity to honor the beauty and uniqueness of every single child. We are excited to celebrate the innate value of all children as individuals and to provide an opportunity for self-expression. 

“A child must know that he is a miracle, that since the beginning of the world there hasn’t been, and until the end of the world there will not be, another child like him.” - Pablo Casals

Natural Development Through Play

As educators, we have noticed a concerning trend; that is the pressure placed on children and parents to rush development. We feel strongly that children must have time and space to explore, play and experience life as carefree children. We recognize the miracle of language development in children, of their drive to gain mastery of motor skills, and their innate ability to grasp an understanding of social cues. None of this happens in a formal classroom, but rather in the natural setting of living and loving within the family. We celebrate and support this organic learning through our music programs. Our classes will not be a sit-down formal lesson, but rather an opportunity to learn through socializing with family and peers using music and movement as a vehicle to experience play together. 

"Play is often talked about as if it was a relief from serious learning, but for children, play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood." - Fred Rogers

“Childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write and count. It is a small window of time to learn and develop at the pace that is right for each individual child. Earlier is not better.” - Magda Gerber

Family Relationships

Finally, we firmly believe that the parent-child relationship needs to be encouraged at every possible opportunity. Family is the organization that provides strength to our community and ultimately to the world. We are excited to provide a setting to nurture this primary relationship through positive social, emotional, and physical experiences. 

“The best inheritance a parent can give his children is a few minutes of his time each day.” - O. A. Battista
