Mindful Musicians
Mindful Musicians is an 8-week music experience designed to grow strong brains and confident kids — in a way that feels playful, creative, and deeply connecting. Each week, children and their caregivers make music together while building real musical skills and real-life tools. Through rhythm, singing, movement, and hands-on activities, kids strengthen focus, coordination, language development, and emotional awareness — all while having so much fun they don’t realize how much they’re growing. Created by a board-certified music therapist, this program weaves foundational music education with simple mindfulness and coping skills. We practice things like positive self-talk, calming strategies, confidence-building, and healthy risk-taking — skills that support resilience now and for years to come. Because brain health matters. Confidence matters. Connection matters.
Each 8-week session includes:
- One 45-minute class per week
- Access to digital music to use at home
- A Mindful Musicians t-shirt Each child attends with a caregiver (18+), because growth is even more powerful when you grow together.

Bridging to Home
In an effort to solidify these concepts that promote positive brain health, please sing at home often!
- Use the songs/chants/recordings/games from our classes and incorporate them at home.
- If you can think of your child as a sponge, often times they are busy soaking up the information within the experience.
- With some encouragement, you may start to see the squeezing out of the sponge at home, where they are more comfortable.
Commonly Asked Questions
Is my child too young?
Kids begin hearing in utero. At 4 months gestation, they have the capability to gain benefit from rhythm. After birth, they mature with rhythm alongside their development. This translates into nonmusical tasks such as speech sequencing, walking, coordination, and even reading. The benefits of music have been proven effective even in NICU babies, so no! Your child is not too young to join!
Do I have to be a musician?
Nope. Music making is for every single person. You need not have any musical background to gain full value out of these courses.
Can my child do this without me?
Only if you’re sending them with a different caregiver over the age of 18. Each child under the age of 7 must be accompanied by an adult. The caregivers get the responsibility of redirecting any behaviors during class, while the teacher has the responsibility of maintaining the flow.
