  • Montclair, NJ

HARMONIZE, featuring MUSIC for AARDVARKS & OTHER MAMMALS, is an interactive music class geared towards little kids (6 months through 4 years) which incorporates a variety of musical activities including singing, dancing, musical story telling, and instrumental jam sessions. The original material used in class uniquely reflects and celebrates the lives of children.

A Simple Philosophy: Provided with a fertile musical environment, positive role models, gentle guidance, and encouragement, young children will have vital musical experiences which help them gain a sense of themselves and a connection to the world in which<br>they live.

Goals and Expectations: An MFA class is a place where children can experience music in a variety of ways. Whether participating or watching, children learn in ways that are right for them, as individuals, and at their own pace.  Exposure to music, gentle guidance, and parental modeling allow young children to learn without the anxiety of the expectations of others.

Parents as Models: Parent or caregiver participation in class activities is essential. Proficiency is of no importance. The adult&#39;s willingness and enthusiasm are invaluable assets to the group as a whole, and exemplify to the children that joining in is not about &#34;performing,&#34; but about having fun. And, by the way, if an MFA class isn&#39;t fun, really BIG fun, demand your money back.

About the Director:  Alisa Harmon is a professionally trained singer and certified teacher who has been teaching music to children since she was 14. When motherhood altered her career in Banking and her avocation as a performer, she recaptured her love for music education and taught for a national children&#39;s music program in Brooklyn. It was there she met David Weinstone, founder of MFA, and music that truly celebrates childhood.<br><br>For more information:
