Building Community in the Studio

Building Community in the Studio

Growing up, I didn’t like how we kept to ourselves at recitals and how there was little interaction between students. I yearned for music buddies and community, which I didn’t have until I attended university.

When I started to teach privately, establishing a friendly studio community was one of my priorities. Since most of us publish studio newsletters to connect with families, my focus here is on the activities I have instigated to build connections and foster a sense of community through the years. Colleagues, feel free to adapt these into your studio.

Building Community in a Virtual Environment

One of the perks of being part of an online choir is the fact that I'm making friends with people from all around the world. A little reflection on how members help each other out and build a strong sense of community in a virtual world.
