My Music and Movement Class: How I Opened My Own Music and Movement Studio and Made Extra Income

Hi! If you're reading this you're interested in how I opened my own Music and Movement Studio and made extra income for my family.

But first, let me rewind to my first full-time job out of college. I was working as an Early Childhood Educator in a center for young children with special needs and volunteered to teach a Kindermusik class to our students. I completed the required Kindermusik training that cost hundreds of dollars (thankfully paid for by my employer) and taught two classes a week for several years. Kindermusik is a wonderful program and made teaching so easy. After my employer purchased one of the Kindermusik curriculum, all I had to do was learn the music and review the lesson plan before teaching.

Fast forward many years later and I'm a stay-at-home mother of three young children and, with my husband in school again, in desperate need of extra income. I was able to begin teaching a Music and Movement class at a friend's home daycare where I was paid by the children's parents to teach a weekly class. I would have loved to have been a Kindermusik instructor again but was not able to pay the Kindermusik fees and still make a profit. So I spent hours creating my own lessons: collecting music, planning activities, and carefully selecting the order in which I introduced then repeated songs. As a result of my work, and my previous Kindermusik training, I taught high-quality classes that the children loved and parents were thrilled with. I later began teaching the same class at a local homeschool

co-op. Again, my previous Kindermusik training and my own well-planned, educational lessons made the class a great success.

And as we speak, I have a space reserved in my basement for a home-based studio when the time is right!

So why does my story matter to you? I want YOU to have the same success as I had: success at teaching an outstanding Music and Movement Class in my own studio, success at doing something I love, success at owning my own business, and success at adding to my family's income.

To make that happen, I started a business offering one of my professional curricula,

Singing Whales and Mermaid Tails.

This curriculum includes 12 lessons chock-full full of music, songs, finger-plays, and activities.

And for only $35!

Why is this an amazing offer?

Well, for example, Kindermusik currently charges the following fees:

$50 non-refundable application fee

$349 training fee

$59.95 monthly licensing fee

And many other Music and Movement Programs are similar! Yikes! An expense like this does not work for someone like myself.

So if you're interested in what my business has to offer - a professional, high-quality curriculum inspired by years of Kindermusik teaching that will save you HOURS of prep work - please visit my website at:
