Children are innately drawn to music. 

Why shouldn’t they be? They have been listening to the rhythm and melody of their mother’s voice since the fourth month after conception.
Children learn best through moving and listening. Music and movement classes will help them grow and develop into successful students.

For her 1 year old photo mom had to capture her doing what she loved best...making music.  Former student who loved music class. 

Why should we introduce music and

movement to babies and toddlers?

• Music and movement are fun!!!
• Music and movement improves overall development, decreases learning problems and enhances brain functioning. 
• Music is crucial to language development.
• Music activates all areas of the brain.
• Music strengthens emotional bonding and self-esteem.
• Music making is a seeing, decoding and problem solving task, three processes used in reading.
• Music making enhances a sense of timing, sense of proportions, problem sequencing, pattern making, which are functions needed in math.
• Music soothes us, decreasing stress, thereby, strengthening our immune system.
• Music aids memory. Sing your telephone number to your children. They will remember through rhythm.
• Music powerfully impacts listening skills which is different from hearing. Listening requires filtering, analyzing and responding to sounds while hearing is a passive experience.    
• Music and movement improve spatial-temporal skills.
• Music and movement develop gross and fine motor skills.       
• Music and movement are a link to culture and traditions.
• Music and movement make us happy!!!

When music is integrated as part of family life it becomes part of who we are!

Thanks for being part of my musical experience!

Ilene Marks started  teaching music & movement in 2006.  She had the extraordinary experience of teaching in Beijing, China to both expat and local children.  In Beijing, she created a successful mommy & me music business. Ilene has also taught in a special needs environment teaching and learning from down syndrome children.   She has volunteered in orphanages and led workshops at an international Montessori school. 

While abroad, she aquired an exceptional collection of instruments, particularly drums from Asia. She incorporates these instruments to teach rhythm and the fundamentals of music theory.  

Loving the flexibility of being a business owner she created KIDZ ENTREPRENEUR classes and camps teaching the joy of creating to businesses to children in K-5th.

Seeing the demand for STEM she started workshops and classes.  More classes to follow for Home Schoolers and after school programs.
