At the Solari Centre for Music Therapy we offer various music classes, from Steelpan to Violin and so much more.

Let's talk about some of the benefits of learning to play percussion (African drums or Drum kit). These include:
- Improves coordination: Using your hands (and sometimes feet) together strengthens motor skills and body awareness.
- Supports focus and attention: Keeping a steady rhythm helps develop concentration and listening skills.
- Enhances timing and rhythm skills: Percussion strengthens the foundation of all musical learning.

Percussion instruments do more than create rhythm, they help build focus, coordination, confidence, and connection.

Collaboration is an important part of music therapy. Oftentimes music therapists work in conjunction with other therapies to help meet the clinical goals of our clients.

For example:
Music Therapy and Physiotherapy - In stroke or brain injury recovery, using drumming or tapping patterns alongside arm exercises helps rebuild motor skills and coordination.

Music Therapy and Speech and Language - If the goal is to improve fluency and provide stuttering support, rhythm and pacing in music can help regulate speech flow.

Collaboration is a powerful tool!
