MusicMovestheBrain is cutting-edge brain-based music & movement education designed to cultivate optimal learning and creativity in children and adults.

The blog’s weekly “Brain Tools”, “Creativity Lab” workshops for kids, educator/parent workshops, and the HealthRhythms community drum circle comprise the current MusicMovestheBrain program.

MusicMovestheBrain was developed by music educator/musician Maria Simeone, whose unique background in music and brain science has led to the creation of this one-of-a-kind outreach program.

“Maria’s brain-based, arts integrative approach is timely and pertinent to children of all developmental levels. They always leave exhilarated!” ~ Susan Miller Kotses, Director of Education and Community Engagement, Pacific Symphony
