Class Descriptions
Show classes for:
All Ages

Our family music class is a blast. You’ll experience shakers, scarves, drums, and more, with songs ranging from lullabies to full-on jam sessions and dance parties. Our engaging and playful activities encourage creativity, self-expression, and social interaction, with everyone participating at their own level. Babies vocalize, listen and observe, toddlers play and experiment, and preschoolers build confidences as they emerge as classroom leaders. Grownups are happy because everyone makes new friends! Active music making promotes cognitive, physical, and social emotional development, and is a ton of fun. Join us. You’ll be so glad you did.

 Jingle Bell Time

In December, join us in this music and movement class as you sing and dance favorite holiday classics. Get ready for songs, chants and fingerplays, instrument activities with sticks, eggs, and drums, and movement activities with scarves and dancing! And of course, lots of laughter and fun with other families. Jingle Bell Time is perfect for siblings, neighbors, cousins, and friends!

 

 Fun in the Sun

Cool off with us this summer and sing and dance with us during our three-week sessions of Fun in the Sun! Get ready for chants and fingerplays, instrument activities with sticks, eggs, and drums, and movement activities with scarves, parachutes, and dancing! And of course, lots of laughter and fun with other families while you take a break from your vacation at the beach. Join us for a session this summer!
