Our MethodologyDesigned for our community
Our methodology - Teaching from the heART - is a student-centered approach that empowers individuals of all abilities to explore their authentic selves through accessible, creative, and collaborative music-making experiences. Grounded in the latest research in the expressive arts and inclusive pedagogy, we use engaging, multi-sensory teaching techniques, to meet each participant where they are most comfortable - in person, live online, or on-demand.
