OUR APPROACH IS UNIQUE
At the Children’s Music Academy we specialize in teaching music
to children in a fun, positive, non-pressured and lively classroom
setting. In this emotionally-safe environment, children have
the freedom to love and appreciate music, while developing fundamental
musical skills that will last a lifetime.
Research has revealed that children’s ears are most receptive
to musical training between the ages of three and six. As a result,
it is preferable to begin a child’s musical experience/education
during those formative years, because his/her “ear for music” will
be more highly developed than a child who begins later. This provides
a strong foundation for continued development of his/her musical skills.
Therefore, at CMA, we have a strong emphasis on music education for
the young child.
OUR CURRICULUM IS PROVEN
Our proprietary curriculum was first utilized in Southern California
in 1974. Since then, CMA has specialized in quality music education,
benefiting thousands of young children. The carefully written and
updated curriculum focuses on age-appropriate activities, which
are designed to develop lifelong musical appreciation and aptitude.
Our courses cover all the beginning levels of musicianship and are
age appropriate, sequential and cumulative.
