EDUCATION THROUGH MUSIC

Inspiring Young Minds Through the Joy of Music

Welcome to Education through Music a unique music programme designed to nurture your child’s musicality from the inside out. Rooted in the Kodály and Dalcroze approaches (q.v.), our classes combine singing, movement, rhythm, listening games, and imaginative play to build deep musical understanding in a joyful and age-appropriate way.

Classes are grouped by age (2–4s, 4–6s, and 7–9s) and tailored to meet children at their developmental stage. We focus on ear training, coordination, creativity, and musical confidence – all through playful, carefully structured activities.

Whether your child is already learning an instrument or just beginning their musical journey, these classes provide an ideal foundation. Children gain a strong sense of pulse, pitch, inner hearing, and expressive movement – skills that support all areas of music learning and go far beyond it.

Led by an experienced teacher with a background in classical music, philosophy, and education, classes are small, friendly, and inclusive, with personal attention given to each child. We welcome curious minds, lively bodies, and all levels of experience.

💡 Why parents love our classes:

• A balance of fun and structure
• Grounded in research-backed methods
• Builds confidence and focus
• Prepares children brilliantly for instrumental learning
• Encourages musical play at home
