group music classes

Offerings

With over 15 years of early childhood music experience, Miss Rachel developed these group music classes with inspiration from Music Learning Theory, Kodaly, and Dalcroze music education methods. Her goal is to provide an engaging, musically rich class and to give caregivers the confidence to incorporate music into their daily lives at home.

Students and their caregiver move, create, and express themselves musically in each class. Participants use shakers, scarves, rhythm sticks and more to find a steady beat and sing songs to discover their voices. All classes include movement to classical music in addition to the singing of classic folk and modern children’s songs.

Class sizes are intentionally small - this allows for more individualized attention and keeps the environment calm and conducive to learning. Each child (or siblings for a family) must be accompanied by an adult for the entirety of the class. This not only helps engagement, but it also allows caregivers to learn and take the skills home during the week. 

The first class for new students is free and discounts are available for siblings and when you register for both winter & spring sessions. More information on pricing is available in the studio policies. Check out our FAQs for more specific details.

  • This class meets for 25 minutes and is for children ages birth through approximately 9-12 months. We will learn songs with wiggles, bouncing, lullabies, and finger plays.

    The caregiver will hold baby on their lap or while standing and moving to the music. Older babies are free to crawl and roll in the space - bringing your own blanket is highly recommended.

    Classes for Summer 2026 meet in 3-week sessions; a discount is available if you register for all summer sessions.

    Siblings who are too old for this class are allowed on a case by case basis - email Miss Rachel before registration if this applies to you. 

  • This class meets for 30 minutes and is for children who are approximately 1-3 years old. We will dance, sing, and learn classic finger plays and rhymes.

    The caregiver will move with the child and help them with percussion instruments. Classes for Summer 2026 meet in 3-week sessions; a discount is available if you register for all summer sessions.

    Siblings come at a discounted rate (siblings who cannot yet walk are free!)

  • This class is for 4-6 year olds and meets for 6-8 week sessions.

    The class will incorporate singing, music games, and instrument playing. Music games include hand-clapping, jumping rope, and bouncing balls. Both non-pitched (drums) and pitched percussion (xylophone) will be played and used to teach rhythmic and melodic music-making. Your child will develop their fine and gross motor, cognitive, and emotional skills while having fun making music!

  • Learn the songs and games from Baby Bachs with other moms-to-be. We will also focus on the physiology of singing, including how to breathe in and connect to a changing body. While masks are not required, they are welcome if desired. Come to find community with others and have a repertoire of songs already memorized for those early, sleepy days of baby’s life.

  • Birthday parties include 20-40 minutes of music, movement, and games tailored to the child’s age and interests. Themes include songs about nature, transportation, ballet, and animals.

    Choose from a pre-set theme or create a custom set of your child’s favorite music (contingent upon copyright usage). Specific pricing is available upon request.
