Music & Movement

Where little ones find their rhythm

 
 

Movement and Music is a parent-and-child class that builds real musical foundations through singing, rhythm, movement, and simple instrument play, all in a fun, safe environment led by fabulous director Emma Littleton. To learn more about Emma, click here.

WHY THIS PROGRAM MATTERS

✦ Builds musical foundations early through singing, rhythm, movement, and simple instrument play.

✦ Supports whole-child development, not just “music skills,” by engaging the body, ears, voice, attention, and social learning.

✦ Makes learning joyful and accessible — kids participate through play, repetition, and guided experiences.

BENEFITS NOW

✦ Stronger listening & language skills through pattern hearing, call-and-response songs, and vocal play.

✦ Better coordination & motor control from clapping, marching, dancing, conducting, and instrument movements.

✦ Improved memory & attention through structured routines, short musical phrases, and predictable songs.

✦ Confidence & self-expression as children sing, move, and perform in a supportive group.

✦ Social-emotional growth through turn-taking, group singing, following cues, and building community.

BENEFITS FOR THE FUTURE

✦ Lifelong music engagement — positive early experiences often lead to continued interest in the arts.

✦ Academic readiness support: rhythm and pattern practice can strengthen skills used in reading and math, like sequencing and phonological awareness.

✦ Cognitive growth, as music training supports executive function — focus, planning, and adapting.

✦ Communication & creativity, as children learn to express ideas using voice, movement, and teamwork.

✦ A foundation for later learning — instruments, choir, performance — without pressure, since kids already know how to participate musically.

CONTINUING THE JOURNEY

As your child's Music and Movement adventure ends, we hope you'll continue their musical development with private lessons. We offer lessons for students 5 and older in piano, guitar, violin, viola, cello, voice, and musical theatre. Thanks to their time in these early music classes, your child will bring a natural sense of pitch, rhythm, and musical structure to their new instrument.
