Description

Classes for Children – Overview

Register now for our next semester – 2026 Summer. Classes begin the week of 5/11 run through the week ending 7/31!

Our classes come in two basic flavors: general music and group instrument. $175 per semester.

GENERAL MUSIC 

Holistic and playful, these classes are a powerful and natural, age-appropriate introduction to singing, rhythm, instruments and movement for our littlest musicians. Instructor is Chelsea Jenkins

  • Toddlers are 15-36 months old. Choice of Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Thursdays. 9:00-9:35 am. No prior schooling or experience is expected. Toddler musicians participate with one grown-up. 
  • Early Birds are 3-5 years old. Thursdays 3:00-3:45. Students preferably are in pre-school or have previously taken a music class. Parent participation optional. 
  • Small Fries are 4-7 and in pre- or elementary school. Thursdays 4:00-4:45. This is a drop-off class, meaning children participate independently of their grownups. 

THE GROUP INSTRUMENT EXPERIENCE

Still playful, these classes are a comfortable bridge from general music to private lessons.

  • Group Piano I for 5 to 7 year old first timers. Mondays 3:45-4:30, with Chelsea and Eleni 
  • Group Piano II for 5 to 7 year old returning group piano students. Mondays 5:00-5:45, with Chelsea and Eleni
