Music Matters

Music Matters

Classes, workshops and individual sessions for Education, Expression, Connection, and En-joyment.  Social-Emotional Learning for people of all ages.



Why?

Music Matters

Music matters because you (are) matter! It is the essence of our shared experience - Vibration. We will help you understand how energy in-motion (e-motion) serves to expand your awareness of the field that connects us all.  When we participate in creating those vibrations...MUSIC!  An experience of joy and connectedness follows.

Everything is Energy, and Energy is Everything

We offer opportunities to understand our connection to music through felt-perception. The joy, peace, and healing which are available through music will en-liven your experience and raise your vibration (lift your spirit).

  • Online Sessions (Group or Individual)

    Using an online meeting platform, you will have the opportunity to learn to sing, drum, or play, and understand the tremendous benefits of active listening. You will explore music in many styles and cultures, and you will become aware of how music effects your mental and emotional bodies.  You will gain tools to expand resilience, confidence, and self-awareness. 

  • In-Person Sessions (Group or Individual)

    Your space or ours, you or your group will be inspired, en-live-end,  and energized via drumming, singing, playing, active listening, breathwork, and movement. You will have the opportunity to create, perform, or even record your sessions. We will support you to find your voice, your rhythm, and your joy!
