 AGES 5 to 8 - Tuesdays at 10 a.m.
Students in this group participate in singing, musical games, pitch exploration and fast paced rhythmic activities, incorporating songs, games and movement.  This is a parent participation program, where Mom or Dad (or occasionally a grandparent) joins the class.  Parents are then able to take away ideas to support their child's music education at home, between classes.   Students will perform in a "show and tell" segment of the studio recital, at the end of the session.

 AGES 9 to 13 - Wednesdays at 10 a.m.
This class is for students who are passionate about singing, eager to learn, and have the behavior skills to work as a team.  No preious singing experience is needed.  Students will develop their voices, gain performance skills, and expand musicianship and music reading skills.  They will learn to perform as a group and as soloists, in preparation for school choirs, musical theater auditions and private voice lessons.  They will perform in a "show and tell" segment of the stduio recital, at the end of the session.

ADULT LUNCHBOX SINGERS- Thursdays at Noon
Age 19 through infinity.  If you have music in your soul that needs to jump out in song, this class if for you!  We will work together toward strengthening your voice, clarifying your tone, extending your range and gaining comfort singing with others.  The emphasis will be on having fun and enjoying the process of vocal discovery.  You will be invited to sing in the studio recital at the end of the session, but there is no requirement to do so.
