Do parents stay in the class?

What if my child cannot sit still for the duration of the class?
Children are free to move around the classroom during class as long as they are exhibiting safe behavior.  Moving is how they learn.   However, please do not allow your child to run in the classroom, as this is unsafe for all concerned.   When children wander from the circle, parents may take the activity over to them or gently bring them back to the circle.

Please feel free to call or e-mail with questions.
We will work closely with you to make your child’s music education the finest available.
