Explore the Benefits

Alabanza Music classes are intended to nurture one's innate musical ability.
Classes at the keyboard in small groups allow adults to experience the delight in making music with others, while at the same time encouraging the development of rhythmic competency, listening skills, singing, and music-reading. In addition, learning melodies, scales and chords on the instruments, helps develop more intricate fine motor skills.

Doing solos (individual renditions) within a group setting, helps to manage and overcome performance anxiety. In fact, according groundbreaking research “performing music-through singing, drumming and dancing- all resulted in participants having higher pain thresholds in comparison to listening to music alone.” 

YOU'RE NEVER TOO OLD!

It is well established that musical training is associated with experience-driven brain plasticity and protection against age-related cognitive decline. So while aging is typically characterised by neurodegeneration, it doesn't have to be for you! Yay! The latest research in Neuroscience proves that learning to play the piano at an advanced age may stabilize white matter - in other words - starting to learn to play the piano in later life can actually stop cognitive impairment in its tracks, dramatically decreasing the chances of memory problems, dementia and the onset of Alzheimer's!
