Music with Shannalee

Family Music Classes teaching singing, movement, and rhymes for ages 0-5 & their loved ones in Missoula, MT.

Hi! I’m Shannalee — thanks for checking out music classes for your family. I’ve been teaching since 2013 here in Montana and in Utah. My teaching is driven by a love for early childhood music education. I truly believe that music is not just an art form, but a vital component for brain development, especially during those crucial early years when our brains grow and develop at such a rapid pace. Active musical participation engages all areas of the brain, helping to create essential neural pathways that support learning and growth.

Whether you’re a musical parent or totally new to music, my classes make music accessible and playful. After training with experts in the field, I guide families to sing, dance, and tell stories together while building a warm, supportive community. No experience needed — let’s make music and memories together!

“Wednesday has become by favorite day of the week! Shannalee creates a wonderful learning experience for all involved. My daughter is very shy and Shannalee did a wonderful job educating me before class that some kids learn by observing and that’s completely okay! My toddler doesn’t want to leave at the end of the 30 minutes (and honestly, I don’t either!)”

-Jenna Ballard

“Shannalee has such a beautiful energy. She’s so encouraging, fun and welcoming to everyone. My 2 year old tends towards the shy side, so I was so delighted to see him up and participating in class today! He really enjoys class and feels comfortable.”
