Rhythm class for 4 to 7 years old
WINTER 2025 registration
Our Rhythm Kids classes are just the thing to get your child to (willingly) put down the iPad and start making music with their friends. Designed specifically for pre-K and early elementary students, these active classes tap into how children this age are wired to learn, with music games, animal rhythm stories, and lots of stomping-flying-climbing fun.
​
In each weekly class, your child will drum, sing, move, and play to rhythms inspired by musical traditions around the world, from West African Gahu, to Japanese Taiko, to Brazilian Samba, to name a few. As they learn to think and create like a musician, they’ll also gain valuable skills they’ll take to the elementary school classroom (and beyond!): confidence, focus, leadership, cognitive flexibility, and more. By the end of the semester, your child will be eager to show off what they’ve learned!

Join us for the Tiger collection this Winter
This semester, we'll explore the Tiger Rhythm with drumming patterns from Mali and India. Children will discover the enchantment of Indian music through the song "Chandamaame Raave" and even learn to sing a verse in Telugu! We'll explore conducting, improvisation, and partner activities with “Don Alfredo baila,” “Ticking and Tocking,” “Everybody Loves Saturday Night” and more! "Tiger, Tigress in the Night" will delight children with imaginative play, drumming, and dancing. And with "Tiger Tracks," we'll get to prowl and growl as we follow a tiger through his day.
