Bring Little Folkies to your School!
Rooted in the American folk tradition, classes combine live acoustic music, singing, movement, rhythm games, solfège, listening, instrument exploration, and creative play to help children develop a strong and joyful musical foundation.
Children explore rhythm, steady beat, tempo, pitch, melody, harmony, dynamics, musical expression, ear training, and musical patterns—not through formal music theory, but by singing, moving, listening, playing, and making music together.
Bring Little Folkies to your school or program for a weekly class or a one time pop-up music circle!
