"Music brings people together. Through music, children take an inner experience and move it into a shared creative experience. Group music-making releases energy which can be channeled in creative, productive directions. Children learn about themselves and others by playing music together and by listening to each other — tapping into hidden courage that can be played out by singing together or discovering the inner resources to listen quietly to another child's playing."

I began the Jambalaya Family Music Program as a way to bring families together in a fun, meaningful way. Over my years spent an elementary school teacher, I have learned that camaraderie is perfectly created when parents and kids work together towards creating something brand new. This collaboration can really be anything from a play to a playground!
We all know that music makes us feel great! So a combination of weekly music and dance experiences has proven to be an excellent method for children and parents to unite together in one awesome program.
The Jam Family Music Program is the culmination of a dream I have held, cherished, and nurtured for many years. It is designed to build a family, community, connection; a connection with all life. It is our joining as a world family with nature. In creating this program, I combined my love of kids, family, community. and nature into something that is enjoyable, educational, and heart warming.
My sincere hope is that the Jam Experience will be an entertaining one for children of all ages! Including the kid that lives inside each and every one of us!
