As a teaching artist, I am dedicated to promoting music as a positive learning experience that triggers joy, harmony and group cohesion. My practice comes from not only an academic background in the fields of music and social work but also in a community-based singing practice of 12 years with songs from oral traditions around the world. I’ve been facilitating music workshops with 0-8 year olds for the past 10 years in schools, day cares, family community organisations and music schools.

Creative Approach and Experiences Offered

My approach is based on a simple routine to help children experience music through their senses using songs, circle rounds and hands-on activities with various percussions. These activities are connected through musical storytelling, adapted to the age group, as the center piece of the workshop. The lived experience is centered on the idea of developing attention and listening skills. Listening to one another, yes, but most importantly connecting to our own musical intuitions as a tool to serve self-esteem resulting in a feeling of well-being.
