When appropriate, adapted instruction is offered in voice, piano, guitar, and percussion. Music therapists design individualized skill-based programs of instruction for students with special learning needs. Students must have the ability to attend to a task for a minimum of 10 minutes, have developing fine motor skills, demonstrate a sense of the basic beat, and an initial desire and motivation to learn the instrument. Placement in adapted instruction will be based on the recommendations of the music therapist providing the initial assessment.

All participants must meet with the director of Onsite Services to schedule an evaluation before registering for a group program.

The Music Therapy DYAD is a two-person session that is designed to address the specific needs of each participant while engaging in the social aspects of sharing the experience of making music together.
