Scientific studies have proven time and again how music lessons such as piano in early childhood boost brain capacity and intelligence. Children who are introduced to music at an early age are less prone to anxiety and depression attacks as adults. Music even improves their creativity and helps them express their feelings better, improves memory and math skills, enhances motor skills and coordination, boosts up confidence, develops social skills, deeper understanding of Arts, and alleviates stress.
Several research studies showed that by learning any skill in groups will greatly reduce the student dropout rate. When students associate their musical activities with meaningful social interaction, their learning becomes internally driven, with less pressure and is more enjoyable.
This class introduces children to music in a fun and positive environment. Your child will enjoy singing, keyboard activities, movement, and listening to music.
