Please note: the 9:30 classes tend to have a prevalence of younger children (6 mos - 18 mos olds); the 10:30 classes, 2- 3 yr olds. But all classes are mixed. The Wed 3:30pm class has younger and older siblings. We've had 6 month olds to 4-5 yr olds in class, and they've all enjoyed it. If you're wondering whether the class might be right for your child, drop in and do a trial class to see if it works! Just let us know when you want to come.
Refunds are available up to the first week of a registered session.
We reserve the right to cancel a class due to limited enrollment.

The Kids Music Underground was founded on the belief that children ought to be approached as equals. And that learning is more profound and longer-lasting if it's presented, or disguised, within a playful group dynamic. Never underestimate the power of Silly. Nor the sense of empowerment that comes from a child's personal involvement and connection (with their parent/caregiver) in the learning process. It's simply healthy to sing, dance, laugh, and play with your child, and other children and adults, on a regular basis. It feels good. That they are learning the basic fundamentals of a musical vocabulary - rhythm and melody, pitch and dynamics - as well as an active appreciation of different forms of music, is an added bonus.
All classes are 45 minutes and they're FUN!
Each class has 10-12 children, accompanied by a parent/caregiver. Activities include singalong, small and big action songs, freestyle movement and dancing, and percussion/instrument play. No need to be bashful - it's all about having fun and making music with your child, so if you're willing to really participate (and be silly), your child will benefit greatly.
 Please arrive 5-10 minutes before your scheduled class time, in order to get settled. It's important that your child be present for the 'Welcome' song, to hear his/her name and feel a sense of belonging.
Two make-up classes per session are allowed.
To register, fill out on-line registration form, including first and second choice of class time, print and sign, and mail it in with your payment.
Families can email to reserve a spot in class - but your space is secured once your payment is received. Then you'll get an email confirming your child's class time.
