Testimonials

'Thanks to Gillian and Claire for providing Jude with such a rich musical education over the past couple of years. He has learnt so much, and he has a love of music that I don’t think would’ve been cultivated had we not discovered Rhythm Tree. We’re very grateful and hope you see you all again soon.'

'We have been attending for quite a few years now and we have enjoyed every minute of classes, both in-person and via video during Covid. I, too will miss the time at Rhythm Tree sessions spending quality time with 2 of my grandchildren. It is a fantastic program and would recommend it to anyone with little children.'

‘It has been so incredible as Sasha has made massive progress with his speech since we started classes. You are simply amazing with the kids and I am such a huge fan of your music class. I will definitely put the new babies name on the waiting list after he/she is born.'

'Wow, what a class, Watching my child gain so much confidence in music over the last 12 months is just beautiful. She sings songs at home, makes up her own words and talks to her friends and teacher Gillian at home each day. Thank you for helping my daughter Charlotte with her love of music and movement.'

'Thank you for making not only our Mondays such joyous days but for all the fun and inspiration that have come from your classes and spread throughout our days & nights & into so many aspects of our lives. We feel so fortunate to have spent the year with you.'
