Sing-play classes for children | Music Classes for Autism

Learning how to maximize music’s deeply therapeutic power becomes a wonderful adjunct to our daily health and wellness programs. Listed below are some of the well-known scientifically proven benefits.

1. Music reduces stress and anxiety
2. Music improves our immunity and therefore general health
3. Music decreases feelings of depression and loneliness
4. Music enhances memory and recall
5. Music alleviates pain and promotes physical rehabilitation

More importantly, you will have a lot of fun and enjoyment in the process. So if you think it’s time to get that item ticked off your bucket list, just go for it. In fact, as an adult, you will have developed a whole bunch of skills that make progress in your lessons so much faster, and deeply rewarding. Of course, this comes with the caveat that you may now as an adult have more responsibilities than you did when you were a kid!

I offer one-on-one instruction using the Sing-Play approach for all my students, children, and adults, including those with disabilities.

My music teaching is informed by my training as a teacher of the Alexander Technique. I guide my students to help them adopt good breathing and postural practices, including the best way to hold an instrument, sit on a piano bench, and stand at full natural height.

Alexander Technique Lessons for Pain and Stress Management | Judith Muir

Exercise and physical activity, reports the National Institutes of Health’s MedlinePlus, are good for seniors and nearly everyone else, including endurance routines for better breathing and heart rate, strength exercises for stronger muscles, flexibility programs to stay limber and balance training to help prevent falls.

And yet, while fall-related injuries send more than 2 million seniors to the emergency room each year, it’s a fear of falling that causes many seniors and others with physical limitations or balance issues to avoid exercising, even while it can improve balance and overall fitness. One way to minimize worry while working out is by doing so while sitting in a chair or holding on to one.

Judith Muir, an Alexander Technique movement specialist and teacher based in Verbank, said chair exercises can help people with stability issues and physical limitations due to age or disabilities, regain their balance and improve their mobility and flexibility.

Help Yourself by Learning Alexander Technique

The Alexander Technique is a unique self-help approach that teaches people how to do things with more ease and freedom – from sitting in front of a computer or texting to playing the guitar or dancing. Regular application can help the student recognize and prevent poor postural habits that can lead to pain as well as underperformance.

Unlike therapies or exercises, the Alexander Technique teaches people to gradually improve the way they look after themselves in all their waking hours – both at rest or during activity. Through the Alexander Technique, the pupil becomes more and more autonomous, able to develop new strategies to do things with greater ease and often, greater enjoyment. As healthy postural support and an overall sense of focus and calm become more established, people are more able to let go of tensions and unproductive efforts they may previously have been unaware of.
