John Brake is joining TMA as our new guitar instructor.
Hailing from Northwest Ohio originally, John Brake is a professional guitarist, Berklee College of Music graduate, and educator. John was first exposed to the guitar when he was just two years old and doesn't remember a time in his life he couldn't play. Along with teaching, John performs frequently as a soloist, with local artists, and for weddings and events through his bespoke live music company. For John, the most important part of a student's music education is fostering a lifelong appreciation and relationship with music and the fine arts.

When you and your child chant or rhythmically recite a poem, nursery rhyme, or even your own made-up words, you’re engaging in an important activity for your child’s rhythm development. Since there is no melody in a chant, your child can thoroughly experience the rhythmic elements without having to learn a melody as well. Read more on our website about the benefits of music, movement, and rhythm–for you and your little one! https://www.musictogether.com/parents/benefits-for-every-age?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=post&utm_campaign=02122026

When you play a musical instrument, you’re not just creating sound — you’re literally rewiring your brain. Scientists have found that playing an instrument activates every major region of the brain simultaneously — auditory (for sound), motor (for movement), and visual (for reading music). This unique combination builds and strengthens millions of neural pathways, making your brain faster, sharper, and more connected.

Neuroscientists call this phenomenon neuroplasticity, the brain’s ability to form and reorganize synaptic connections. Regular musical practice doesn’t just improve coordination and memory — it actually increases gray matter volume and strengthens the corpus callosum, the bridge between the brain’s hemispheres.

Whether you’re strumming a guitar, playing piano, or drumming to a beat, your brain is constantly learning, adapting, and growing. It’s no wonder long-term musicians often show better focus, creativity, and emotional regulation even decades later.

So, the next time you play, remember — you’re not just making music. You’re sculpting your mind.
