MUSIC IS THE LANGUAGE OF THE BRAIN
"You would have probably heard that music will enhance your learning capabilities,…..yes it is true.......ACTUALLY music does much more than that. Music is actually the driving force behind all other learning. If you are a parent who would like to understand the function of music and its benefits; or if you are an educator who is very keen to understand the actual benefit of introducing music to children, and why it is the language of the brain...this is the workshop for you.
You know the reasoning:

This powerful workshop demonstrates:
BUT which type of music should you listen to? All this.... will be discussed in the workshop.
Some feedback from Dr. Llewellyn: “I taught an autistic boy piano and in 3 years he lost his diagnosis. He's really obsessed with music so he's still a bit out there but it's given him a life. His mum doesn't have to medicate him at all. The doctors can't explain it. Also, another boy who had a problem with his left hand. A few months ago, I bumped into his mum at the tuck shop. She told me that he had a stroke at birth and has not been able to use his left side for much. He now plays with both hands (it took a year!!) and after visiting his old doctor in Germany, they were told he had made a full recovery. His brain had entirely re-grown!!! They had travelled the world to first diagnose him then work out what could be done to improve his condition......he doesn't have a condition any more.”
