My Project

We are still in need of a few more instruments to help get our meditative music project off the ground. These instruments will allow the students to make calming, peaceful sounds in the classroom to help alleviate some of their stress and anxiety. We are also asking for cushions so students can sit on the ground comfortably to play these instruments which are traditionally played on yoga mats or blankets.

I would like to be able to give my students an authentic meditative musical experience.

Since so many of them love music, I feel that this project would really speak to them and captivate their interests.
