Hands-on, play-based group classes designed just for ages 4 to 6. Your child will explore rhythm, melody, and teamwork through games, instruments, and imagination.
Two Amazing Programs
Two unique classes built from the ground up for ages 4 to 6. Both spark a lifelong love of music through play, creativity, and hands-on exploration.
Get ready to rock! Rockin' Rookies turns music fundamentals into an all-out adventure. Kids discover rhythm, tempo, dynamics, and melody through high-energy musical games, movement activities, and hands-on play with real instruments. Each week brings a new challenge as students bang hand drums, crash boom whackers, explore the keyboard, and learn to listen, lead, and collaborate. This is where little musicians build a rock-solid foundation while having the time of their lives.
A perfect first step into the world of piano! Little Keynotes is a small-group class designed exclusively for beginner pianists ages 4 to 6, with no more than four students per session. Using age-appropriate methods like color-coded keys, musical storytelling, and playful finger exercises, kids learn note reading, hand position, and simple songs in a supportive, low-pressure environment. They'll build confidence at the keyboard while making friends and having a blast.
The MOTW Difference
Our youngest musicians aren't left on the sidelines. Early class students get the chance to perform at real concerts alongside the whole MOTW family, building confidence and stage presence from the very start.
Built for Families
We thought of everything — for parents and their littlest musicians alike.
