EARLY STARTERS MUSIC & MOVEMENT

Relaxed, engaging, and highly educational 30-minute weekly classes for young children aged 2-4 years.

Having attended many classes of all types over the span of 3 children, I can honestly say that this programme is exceptional in terms of content and delivered with true care and passion. It is constructive and builds musical enjoyment and awareness in a way that is pure fun and the consistency of the classes builds confidence in the children. I cannot praise this music school enough to be honest but the greatest measure is that my child can’t wait to get there and then doesn’t want to leave.
