This class offers young students a fun and supportive environment to begin learning guitar fundamentals using classical guitar technique—ideal for smaller hands. Students will explore rhythm and melody through full-body engagement, including fingers, ears, and group song-playing. They’ll start with simple melodies on the first three strings, learn the G major scale, and begin reading rhythmic notation. The class prepares students for future levels and encourages consistent, low-pressure home practice to boost enjoyment and progress. A small-sized nylon-string guitar is required.

teaches young kids musical skills through rhythm games, singing, creative movement, dancing, musical play, and the use of instruments. These group classes give fun, positive, and successful musical experiences to children, inspiring a lifelong love of music in a supportive social environment, easing the way to success in the next stage of their musical journeys.
