Do-Re-Mi" classes focus on developing in-tune singing, beat and rhythm through joyful and creative musical expression, in a supportive and fun environment. Based on the educational, social, emotional and physical needs and abilities of each individual child, these “pre-instrumental” classes encourage a positive attitude to music and a solid foundation for future music education. They are endorsed by the The Kodaly Music Education Institute of Australia (KMEIA), to which I have been affiliated since 2001. Understanding the multi-layered benefits of music ie.
