One of my greatest joys is to inspire and empower adults to share with children my broad definition of “music”…which is life itself.  Life is a symphony of music, and we need to open children’s ears, eyes and hearts to the sounds, shapes, rhythms and colors around them.  Workshops can be provided within your school as an in-service activity, at conferences, homes, organizations and libraries.  I will fly anywhere for anyone who is interested in the amazing magical power of music, movement, imagination and the importance of integrating words that nurture from inside-out. 

Tailor-Designed Workshops and Keynote Speaking events can be created upon your request, based on your needs and specific population.  Ideal for Nursery School Teachers and Directors, Librarians, Kindergarten Teachers, Early Childhood teachers, infant-toddler Teachers, Preschool and Early Elementary School teachers, Montessori Schools, Special Needs Teachers, School Aides, Day Care Providers, Parents, Grandparents, Nannies and Babysitters.
