Weekend

The activities in this class train the body to solve musical problems leading to the improvement of the student’s performance and retention of musical fundamentals. In this class, music directs students. They have to respond quickly to what they hear and express them through body movements. This will greatly increase listening and coordination skills, which are vital in the mastery of any musical instrument. Music theory is also integrated in this class together with solfege and improvisation.

Group Class for Children is designed to give children as young as 3 years old an excellent start in their musical life. APAM’s focus is first to naturally cultivate a love of music in every child and to foster an understanding of music second. Therefore, musical concepts will be introduced in a fun way using the Dalcroze method - music education through body movement. Every activity is designed to teach a musical concept through multi-sensory approach - aural (listening and singing), visual (reading, recognizing symbols and notes) and kinestic (movement and games).

Individual lessons are offered to those who want undivided attention to learn and deepen their understanding of music. In this program, students will receive individual instruction about technical skills and appreciation of music on their chosen instrument and in voice using Ms. Anna Poklewski’s unique philosophy of teaching. This program is available for all ages.
