Event Details

Thrive City “Little Bears” Outdoor Free Music Class for Kids (Every Friday)

Bring your little bears to Thrive City to shake, rattle, and rock ‘n’ roll! Little Bears teachers create musical journeys focusing on socialization, musical appreciation, and the deep embodiment of rhythm and melody. Allow them to learn and interact with music as a joyful expression of self!

This event will take place in the Esplanade on the corner of Warriors Way and Terry A Francois Blvd.

About the Teacher:

Get up and get down” with guitar slingin’ musician Teacher Barb! She’ll keep your toes tapping and your fingers snapping with timeless rock n’ roll, country, folk, blues and jazz classics as well as unforgettable original songs written just for kids and families. Teacher Barb creates a fun and supportive musical environment to inspire the human spirit. Children, and the adults who love them, will learn to sing in tune, explore the beat, feel the rhythm, find the rhyme and so much more. Come on down to Thrive City and join in the musical fun. With Teacher Barb’s help, you’ll be singing and dancing long after class is over.
