In each weekly music class, we drum, sing, move, and play to rhythms inspired by musical traditions around the world, from West African Gahu, to Japanese Taiko, to Brazilian Samba, just to name a few.

Students learn to compose, choreograph, and conduct as they play—and play with!—a variety of musical instruments: West African djembe drums, percussion instruments, and, the most important instruments of all, their voices and their bodies. As your big kid learns to think and create like a musician, they’ll also build musical connections to the global community. Classes include:

• immersion in the musical language of many cultures
• playful music games with rules
• opportunities to lead, balanced with opportunities to collaborate
• deep exposure to complex, fun, and rockin' music
• many chances to solo, improvise, and work in ensembles
• rich, creative experimentation and expression, improvisation, and innovation

Two types of Rhythm Kids^® music classes are available: Level 1 for four- and five-year-olds in Pre-K, and Level 2 for kindergarteners, first-graders, and second-graders.  (*Class Levels may be combined based on enrollment)
