Who it is for
Potential candidates, ages 6 and older with neurological, developmental and/or physical disabilities, are interviewed and evaluated for admission to study violin, viola, cello, trumpet, piano, clarinet or snare drum in individual, family or small group lessons. Vocal lessons are also available.
Students must have a Music Partner who attends all lessons and assists them when practicing.
A therapeutic foundation
Lessons begin with a supportive foundation period shaped around each student's needs. A trained specialist works one-to-one with students to build the focus, coordination and confidence needed to succeed in a private instrumental or vocal session. Students then choose voice or an instrument to study with an NJWA faculty member.
