We currently offer the following workshops and would be delighted to collaborate with your school to tailor our services to best meet your needs.
Makin’ Music (MnM)

To provide 6-8 week learning blocks addressing the social, behavioural, emotional, and developmental needs of the classroom. Can be tailored to suit the goals of classes specifically.
Examples of learning blocks: developing attention & focus, understanding & regulating emotions (including Zones of Regulation), music-based strategies for learning (e.g., warm up, cool downs, transitions, songs for memory), social skills (i.e., theory of mind, teamwork, group plan, cooperation).
Movers & Shakers
Duration: 6-8 weekly sessions Session Length: 45min per session
Creating a music group for students with ADHD requires a tailored approach that encourages focus, creativity, and engagement, while being mindful of the unique needs and energy levels of the participants. The goal is to use music to help channel energy, improve attention, and foster a sense of community and belonging.
Morning Jam

To provide an opportunity before school to regulate and prepare for the day’s learning. Further to this, it provides a context for students to connect and relate in a relaxed environment to promote friendship and authentic building of social skills.

Music Therapy Staff Workshop
Duration: 6-8 weekly sessions Session Length: 60min per session
To foster collaboration, improve communication, and strengthen relationships within the school community. These workshops help teachers build trust, appreciate different ideas and perspectives, develop confidence as part of the team, and work together more effectively. This ultimately improves the learning environment for students. By promoting a positive and supportive team dynamic, teachers are better equipped to share resources, ideas, and strategies, leading to improved teaching outcomes and a more cohesive school culture.
