Summer Mini Music with Shannalee Classes

I’m looking forward to collaborating with other teachers and business here in Missoula AND on the road this summer! During class, grown-ups learn to be more musical with their babies and toddlers while joyfully exploring a variety of songs, dances, and rhymes in a supportive group setting. Class is 30 minutes (with 15 minutes of play at the end).

    You don’t have to be a professional musician in order to gain the benefits of music with your family! Learn from a trained music educator (BME K-12) and vocalist, Shannalee Baird, how to connect with your baby through music while meeting other families in our community. Shannalee uses instruments, puppets, scarves, and more to provide engaging and research-based music classes to the Missoula area. She will have you singing, dancing, and rhyming with songs that the whole family will love and use at home daily.

    With an intent to “feel and enjoy the music in our bodies,” Kate Jordan Augusto is joining us (partnering with Shannalee) for this workshop. Kate will layer spirally, wavy movements, breathing and imagery throughout the musical experience. Kate is a certified GYROKINESIS® movement teacher, dance educator, and Missoula Momma of an eccentric 4 year old girl.
