Sorry! Classes are full for the fall. Stay tuned for winter enrollment.

 

 

 

Join the fun in Outdoor Rhythm Kids® classes this fall!

 

 

Kids ages 4-8 will love experiencing the Kangaroo Song Collection this fall.

 

We’ll sing, dance, drum and learn about exciting Australian music and culture.

 

The Kangaroo Collection features drumming patterns inspired by the Australian didgeridoo. We’ll learn a traditional song and “sit-down dance” from the Torres Strait Islanders called “Taba Naba”, and with “Hand in Hand” we’ll explore body percussion and sing a three-part round. We’ll jam and solo-sing to the reggae beat of “Every Day’s a Good Day” and, of course, have lots of fun moving like “Krazy Kangarooz!” All 22 songs in this collection have been chosen and arranged specifically to support each student’s music development.
