NEW OFFERING! Want to try out a new instrument without diving all the way in? Group lessons are a fun, low-pressure way to get started- AND we can provide the instruments, so no need to buy anything up front.

The total cost of group lessons is $160, but shared evenly among participants- so the more who join, the lower the price per person!

It’s a great way to learn something new, jam with others, or add to what you’re already doing in private lessons.

Whether you’re testing the waters or just want to play with a group, group music lessons could be a great option for you or your kiddo.

We are currently offering group lessons for: piano, guitar, and voice in our Columbia office or in-home. Pianos/guitars are limited, so space is limited (of course, if you have your own instrument, you are welcome to use it!). Send us an email if you are interested in learning more/setting up group lessons! inquiry@melodymt.com

✨Comment "Songs!" to have the free recordings and chords sent to you!✨ Here are 5 original songs to have in your back pocket for supporting kiddos with big feelings- both emotionally and physically. They touch on areas such as supporting kiddos who experience a tougher time with transitions, exploring and bringing awareness to sensory regulation, navigating complex emoting, and more.

Using these songs within my own music therapy sessions, I’ve found some to be a more accessible resource for grounding in moments of intense emotion. In that moment, we’re not trying to talk it through or “fix” anything- the music is the container for the space being held, guiding us to a place where we can figure out where to go from there. Or I’ve found they’ve become anthems we practice for fun, and return to when we need some grounding reminders. Perhaps these songs are ones you incorporate into your routines at home, listen to in the car, sing during the moment of dysregulation, or however else may be supportive for you and your child/student/client.

Happy listening!

Heading into day 4 of snow days- how we doing? Anyone need some new activities to combat the cabin fever? Check out these 4 simple at-home music activities for kiddos!

1. Musical Mad Libs: drop a 🥶 for a link to our Frosty the Snowman Madlibs PDF

2. Freeze Dance: a classic. This can be a great tool for gradually bringing energy down, while still allowing for autonomy and honoring your kiddo's need for high energy. Have your kiddo choose between 2-3 dance moves before each pause, "how are we going to dance this time? Jumping or twirling?" Gradually offer lower intensity movement options when it feels appropriate for your child's system.
Some dance move options: freestyle, jump, stomp, spin, wave your arms, clap your hands, tap your toes, wiggle your eyebrows, sway your body, etc.

3. Make Up a Dance Routine: turn some of that energy towards another creative outlet- dance! Feel free to take. a video and share it with us if you'd like it to be featured on our IG/FB pages!

4. Online Music Activities: Soundtrap: color coded music recording website. You can explore loops/sound clips from the Soundtrap library, or record your own!
Chrome Music Lab: learn about different elements of sound, and experiment on your own in various activities!

Stay safe and warm everyone!

In an effort to increase accessibility to support, we are decreasing our clinical supervision for MTs from $120 to $85/hour. Over the past year, along with the major increase in need for community/support, we all experienced the major price increases literally everywhere. This is our small attempt to make both a bit more manageable. If this rate is still a barrier, please reach out and we can explore other accessibility options. Support should not be a luxury- it's a necessity. You carry so much, and deserve to find stability and gentleness. Email mikaila@melodymt.com, or fill out our supervision inquiry form on our website.
