I had so much fun teaching this Elementary Percussion workshop for the kids and their parents at Ignite Peoria!

I am so proud of my summer Stomp kids, who performed a routine in Thursday that we built from scratch over the course of the summer.

These kids met once a week for thirty minutes, and did such a great job showing off what they’ve learned in such a short amount of time. Congrats to them on their first performance and a special shout out to Melissa Gonzales who made such fun shirts that really popped off the black-lit stage.

Fall enrollment is open now for Stomp, taught by myself Jojo's Music Room and hosted by Nitsch Theatre Arts NFP at the NTA Center for Creativity. A combination of unconventional percussion and step style dance, it’s great way to build musical skills, stay physically active, build breath support, and make new friends.
