Our group programs are designed for children who can participate safely and successfully in a group setting with the level of supervision provided by our staff. While we strive to create an inclusive environment, our instructors are music educators and are not certified to provide specialized care or a high level of behavioural, emotional, medical or personal support. As a result, our programs may not be the right fit for children who require ongoing individualized support.

This program is non-refundable after the fourth class. Refunds requested prior to the fourth week are subjected to a $50 administration fee. Refunds, credits, and make-up classes are not provided for student absences
