Inspiring Young Minds Through Melody and Creativity

Meet Our Teachers

Our music teachers aren’t just here to teach music skills, they’re here to help your child become a more well-rounded, creative, and socially-emotionally aware person! 

We believe that learning a new musical skill is about so much more than just hitting the right notes.

The Power of Teaching

At Minibop, we believe in the power of music to bring people together and foster social-emotional growth in children.

That’s why our music program focuses on social-emotional learning and is designed to help children develop essential life skills, such as empathy, communication, and self-awareness through the power of music.
