Training Events - Music For Early Years

[Guest]

Not sure if this is in the right place - I searched around the Forums (fora?) and thought this was the best fit.

 

Just letting you all know about some training coming up in London led by some startlingly good people. I've had some Dalcroze training from one of the leaders and she was superb - engaging and knowledgable.

 

Here's an extract of the flyer and I've uploaded the flyer if you need more info. Do contact anne-marie@musichouseforchildren.co.uk / 020 8932 2652 directly if you want to go along. It'll be a very worthwhile day.
