Music Lessons
What are Whole-Child Lessons?
Whole-Child music lessons are different from traditional music lessons because they introduce several different instruments such as piano, guitar, and drums and use rhythmic instruments such as shakers, sticks, triangle, etc. to learn the basics of music theory. Children will learn about musical components such as pitch, rhythm, and notes on the musical staff through an interactive session that sees them moving their bodies, standing on chairs, and rolling on the floor. Older children with ADHD benefit from this type of session as they practice impulse control through following auditory cues. Using muscle memory, these skills transfer to the classroom!
Our lessons also include beginner piano, vocal, and guitar lessons to help increase self-confidence, attention span, and language abilities. Research shows that children who enroll in music lessons at an early age improve their ability to learn how to read and write, and also display increased success in math.
Whole-Child music lessons also incorporate a social emotional expression component. As rapport develops, children are invited to express themselves through original compositions created with the music therapist. These songs may be as simple as expressing their favorite things or as complex as expressing difficult feelings during uncertain times. Whole-Child music lessons offer a safe and supportive environment for self expression.
