KIDS Krazy Karaoke Blasts - Saturdays

Umbrella School of Music

OUR VISION

Ingrid Bass (Principal Tutor) has a DREAM… that this world one day will be a much more inclusive, compassionate place where all people are kind to, respectful of and celebrate each other regardless of their differences, abilities and disabilities!

To work towards achieving this dream, Ingrid created this school to engage people of all ages, abilities and disabilities in her lessons, activities, workshops and events. The aim is to foster and develop connections between people through the universal language of music!

We offer 1-1 lessons and small group lessons of up to 3 students.

A main focus is on improving people's lives and helping them achieve their goals whilst HAVING FUN using SINGING, MUSIC and MOVEMENT as the medium!!

OUR PROGRAMS

We offer 8 main types of programs which can be combined and make use of a variety of techniques & resources (including books, props, costumes, white/black boards, electronic devices and visual communication tools) to achieve results based on the student’s needs, interests and goals.

Lessons are held in 2 rooms of a welcoming, clean family home which has been set up with multiple instruments, a large TV (for viewing lyrics and You Tube clips), microphones and plenty of room to move around in.
