"Thanks so much for your wonderful class. We love it and look forward to it all week long too!" --Gina
"Music Together is a great opportunity to show our child why we love to make music. The class is structured, yet not too formal. We love the mixed ages environment because she can watch older children and try to follow what they do. The CD's and songbooks make it easy to use at home. We were looking for a program for a baby and this was something she could do before she was even able to walk. Now that she's a little older, it is still perfect!"
"Just wanted to tell you that [my daughter] is not really a "quiet" child, but still I notice that during class, while she often seems preoccupied or distracted, the week following she often randomly starts belting out tunes from class during her play activities. She really DOES take it all in and process it, then put it to use. She's been really into the "Great Big Daddy Spider" tune lately, but who knows what this week will bring?"
"My almost 2 year old cannot be in the car without Music Together music playing. Fortunately, my 6 year old is in the Big Kids class and they ALL love the music! If the CD is not playing, we are singing some variation of a MT song- pretty much all the time. THANK YOU KARI!"
"We really enjoyed our classes with Cody and, as a result, our daughter's musical intuition and interests have skyrocketed! She oftens initiates many of the catchy songs at home, in the car, before bed, and just about anywhere! She makes it very clear before dinner that we need to hold hands and sing the hello song....what a great way to give thanks! This past session, my husband accompanied Ruby Jo to most of the classes and I almost solely attribute this time spent together as the foundation for their increased closeness! The bonding that has taken place carries over into the nightime routine when daddy comes home and makes for a much smoother transition. The experience has really brought them closer and created a special commonality between them that has supported a blossoming relationship! My only complaint is that I miss the Music Together classes!" --Anita
"Kari is super nice--very naturally musical, and the kids respond well to her. Kari also sticks to a great routine each class which is important! Kari - you are fabulous!"
"We are so enjoying class and so thankful for the opportunity available here in Asheville. I was talking to a friend who does Music Together in Richmond, VA and it was very fun both knowing all the songs!"
"We love Ms. Cody, she is wonderful! I am having a blast in class and know my boys are too. My 20 m.o. has been singing along to the CD as best he can! It's so adorable. Amazing how much they absorb while you're not always sure what exactly is going on in their world and minds."
"As a musician, the music and course content attracted me to this program. I had heard the cd's from other programs and found them irritating, at best!"
"[Another Music Together Mom] and I are speech therapists and have a small private practice together. We work with children who have autism and other developmental disabilities. Since having our own kids and participating in the Music Together classes, we have become more aware of how powerful music is in assisting in language learning and communication skill development. We have recommended your classes to a couple of parents, and I hope they will sign up because we know your classes would be a great help to their kids!" --Cara
"It seems a lot of moms put on a video to entertain their children while they prepare dinner. I just put on a Music Together CD! The boys play instruments, dance, color on their songbook, or (my favorite) sit quietly and "listen". Music Together is what gets us through that last hour before dinner. Not only do the kids love it, but it also is a pick-me-up for me as well! Hurray!" --Julie
"I love the class and the teacher's sincere and real love for teaching and connecting to the children."
"We have enjoyed your class so much. I feel like it has reminded me that I like to be musical (even if I get off key!) and my baby loves when I sing. She and I have been through a lot with the loss of her twin sister in February and doing the music class has been a wonderful bonding experience for us. She has been smiling so much when we sing the Hello Song and Round Robin and the pony song... and more too. Even my husband has joined in with us sometimes!" --Sarah
"I really feel a strong sense of community in our classroom. I enjoy the feeling of safety that my daughter has in music because she is comfortable and knows that not only am I looking out for her, but all the other parents are serving as role-models and care-givers to her as well."
"We love love love your class, I tell everyone that I know that has a little one about Music Together. We are involved in activities all over town and your class is by far our favorite...I do know that [my daughter] is emotional about music and in your class the times that we've had the energy and activity to match a song, she's brought it home and repeated it all week. Last week she got quiet and thoughtful to slower songs and we went through all of our cloth napkins as she was twirling them like you showed her with the scarves. This week she's been kicking to all songs that are upbeat just like the circle kick dance we did. She just loves to act out the feeling of a song. She also likes it when you've shown her how to do something like clicking or rubbing sticks. I think she enjoyed the change up by doing more songs. I enjoyed the energy level and loved how the kids freed themselves up and interacted with each other and the adults in the class.
"My children enjoyed their classes immensely. My toddler especially was thrilled with classes and looked forward to class each week. From the moment she wakes up on Saturdays she is talking about music class. Even my 10 month old is singing 'whoa joe'"!
