Here are a few key principles of the pedagogy practiced in our music school :



Rhythm and movement

Teaching music begins with body movement and rhythm. Students are encouraged to feel and express music through their bodies before moving on to instruments or singing.

Coordination

Coordination exercises are used to develop the relationship between the music heard and the movements performed.
This helps students to better understand and interpret music more expressively.



Improvisation

The method encourages musical and choreographic improvisation. This fosters creativity and artistic confidence in every
student.



Active listening

This is essential for understanding and interpreting music. Apprentice musicians develop their musical ear and grasp the nuances and emotions conveyed by music.

Global musicality
